RG6/U S CMP Coaxial Cable – High-Performance Plenum-Rated Solution

RG6/U S CMP coaxial cable is a high-quality, quad-shielded, plenum-rated cable designed for signal transmission in commercial and residential buildings. It meets CMP (Communications Plenum) fire safety standards, making it suitable for installation in air-handling spaces such as ceilings, raised floors, and ductwork. The cable is ideal for CATV, satellite TV, broadband internet, and surveillance systems, ensuring low signal loss, high shielding effectiveness, and long-term durability.

Key Features

1. Plenum-Rated Fire Safety (CMP Certified)

• Designed for use in air-handling spaces where fire safety is critical.
• CMP-rated jacket meets stringent NFPA 262 and UL 910 fire standards, ensuring low smoke and flame propagation.
• Ideal for commercial buildings, office complexes, hotels, hospitals, and data centers.

2. Quad-Shielded for Maximum Interference Protection

• Quad-shielding (two layers of aluminum foil + two layers of aluminum braid) provides superior protection against radio frequency interference (RFI) and electromagnetic interference (EMI).
• Enhances signal clarity and stability, making it suitable for high-frequency applications up to 3 GHz.

3. High-Performance Conductor for Reliable Signal Transmission

• Available with a solid copper or copper-clad steel (CCS) conductor:
  • Solid Copper: Best conductivity, superior signal integrity, and minimal signal loss, ideal for long-distance runs.
  • Copper-Clad Steel (CCS): Cost-effective with sufficient conductivity for standard installations.
• Low-loss dielectric insulation (foamed polyethylene, FPE) minimizes signal attenuation and supports high-frequency signals.

4. Durable, Fire-Retardant Outer Jacket

• Made from plenum-rated PVC (polyvinyl chloride) or FEP (fluorinated ethylene propylene) for high-temperature resistance and low-smoke emission in case of fire.
• Resistant to abrasion, moisture, and environmental factors, ensuring long-term reliability.

5. Supports High-Frequency Applications

• 75 Ohm impedance for efficient signal transmission.
• Supports frequencies up to 3 GHz, suitable for modern broadband, digital TV, and satellite applications.
