- LLPX is an indoor highly re retardant cable
intended specically for runs within return air handling
plenums (e.g. dropped ceilings, raised oors). It has a
UL/NEC & CSA rating of ‘CMP’ and ‘FT6’ respectively.
Flexibility and bendability are hallmarks of the LMR-
LLPX cable design. The exible outer conductor
enables the tightest bend radius available for any cable of
similar size and performance.
Low Loss is another hallmark feature of LMR-
LLPX. Size for size LMR has the lowest loss of any
exible cable and comparable loss to semirigid hard-line
cables.
RF Shielding is 50 dB greater than typical single
shielded coax (40 dB). The multi-ply bonded foil outer
conductor is rated conservatively at > 90 dB (i.e. >180
dB between two adjacent cables).
Weatherability: LMR-LLPX cables are designed
for indoor Plenum applications. LMR-LLPX
can also be used for applications that originate
outdoors (e.g., rooftop) and subsequently enter
the building.
Connectors: A variety of connectors are available for
LMR-LLPX cable, including the most common
interface types. Most employ crimp outer attachment
using standard hex crimp sizes.
Cable Assemblies: All LMR-LLPX cable types are
available as pre-terminated cable assemblies. Contact
TMS for additional jacket colors
