Outside Plant Copper Cables for Line Powering
Telco Filled Core Cables
Prysmian Group manufactures a broad range of wire and
cable for the distribution of telecommunication signals for
outside use. Our Outside Plant Copper Cables are designed
for Telco Line Powering applications. Its Plastic Insulated
Filled Core Cable ensures protection from moisture ingress.
These cables can be installed in underground ducts and
direct buried applications where protection against water and
moisture entry is required and may also be installed aerially.
APPLICATIONS
• Telecom Class 2 Line Powering
• Low risk direct burial and
underground duct
• Aerial installations when
appropriately attached to a
support strand
FEATURES
• ETPR lled core
• Aluminum shield with fully ooded
interfaces
• LLDPE black jacket
BENEFITS
• ETPR lling compound provides
thermal protection and prevents
corrosion and water ingress
• Black LLDPE jacket for UV
resistance and protection from
environmental stresses expected in
standard installations
RDUP (RUS) PE-89 AL Cables - Spec. 2007
Product Description
Filled Foam Skin ALPETH and PE-89 Cables are designed for use in Telco
Line Powering applications. The copper core makes use of ETPR lling
compound, lling in the interstices between the pairs and the core wrap
tape to ensure protection from moisture ingress. These cables can be used
in low risk direct burial or duct applications. They may be used aerially, but
must be attached to a support strand.
Core Construction:
Conductors:
• Solid, annealed copper; size 22 AWG
Insulation:
• Dual insulation consisting of an inner layer of foamed polyolen
surrounded by a solid polyolen skin, color-coded in accordance with
telephone industry standards
Twisted Pairs:
• Insulated conductors are twisted into pairs with varying lay lengths to
minimize crosstalk
Core Assembly:
• 25 pairs and less: pairs are assembled together in a single group
• More than 25 pairs: pairs are arranged in groups, each group having a
color-coded unit binder
Filling Compound:
• The entire core assembly is completely lled with ETPR compound, lling
the interstices between the pairs and under the core tape
Core Wrap:
• Non-hygroscopic dielectric tape applied longitudinally with an overlap
Sheath:
Aluminum Shield:
• Corrugated, copolymer-coated, 0.008” aluminum tape applied
longitudinally with an overlap
• The sheath interfaces are ooded with an adhesive water-blocking
compound
Jacket:
• Black, linear low density polyethylene
Application(s):
• Intended for duct and direct buried installations where protection against
water and moisture entry is required and may also be installed aerially
Compliances:
• Rural Development Utility Program (RDUP) 7 CFR 1755.890 (RUS PE-89)
• RoHS Compliant (effective 1/1/10)
• ANSI/ICEA S-84-608-2007
Packaging:
• Standard lengths are shipped on non-returnable wood reels
• Non-standard packaging is available upon request
Congurations:
• Available in additional pair counts and gauges
