Belden's Shielded Twisted Pair Cables Deliver Superior Performance In Wi-Fi Tower Transmissions
Belden CDT Electronics Division recently introduced an outdoor-rated, 4-pair shielded twisted pair (ScTP) cable that meets and exceeds all industry standards for Wi-Fi tower transmissions.
Richmond, IN (PRWEB via PR Web
Direct) September 1, 2005 -- Belden CDT Electronics Division, a world leader
in the development of specialty cable products for the broadcast, commercial,
industrial and residential markets, recently introduced an outdoor-rated, 4-pair
shielded twisted pair (ScTP) cable that meets and exceeds all industry standards
for Wi-Fi tower transmissions. The new Wi-Fi cable (Product #1300A) is designed
for use in wireless transmission systems provided by manufacturers such as
Cisco, Motorola, NetGear, Nokia and other leading providers. WISPs (Wireless
Internet Service Providers) also using these systems to provide wireless service
to customers include AT&T Wireless, Cingular Wireless, Clearwire, Nextel,
SBC and Verizon Wireless.
Belden developed the 1300A Wi-Fi cable in
response to rapidly increasing market demand for efficient, convenient wireless
networking technology – at home, at work and at play. Numerous businesses have
added wireless capability to their wired LANs, and many airports, hotels,
casinos and retail establishments now offer public access to Wi-Fi networks,
called hot spots or hot zones. Although many of these networks are supported by
different industry standards – including Bluetooth®, IEEE 802.11a, 802.11b, and
802.11g – Belden Wi-Fi cables are compatible with any system that uses RJ-45
connectors. The cable also adheres to two other applicable standards: TIA/EIA
568-B.2 Category 5e and Power over Ethernet (PoE) IEEE 802.3af.
Rugged
Construction Key to Belden's Wi-Fi Cable Electrical Performance
Since
Wi-Fi cables connect point-to-point and point-to-multipoint wireless LAN systems
that run from the transmitting/receiving radios on the tower to the base
station's internal electronics, they must be exceptionally rugged. Belden's
Wi-Fi 1300A cable features a very thick (.030 in.), UV-resistant PVC jacket and
has Belden's patented Beldfoil® shield bonded to the jacket's inner wall. This
durable, weather-resistant construction allows the cable to deliver
exceptionally stable electrical performance, even in high-traffic RF (radio
frequency) environments.
In addition, Belden's Wi-Fi shielded twisted
pair cable is easy to install and can be quickly terminated on standard RJ-45
connectors. Installation is also eased by a 24 AWG stranded tinned copper drain
wire and by the sequential marking of the cable's PVC jacket at two-foot
intervals.

pair cable, contact Belden CDT Electronics Division, P.O. Box 1980, Richmond,
