• RS-485 & RS-422/RS-232 Cable
RS-485 and RS-232 high-quality data cable helps prevent electrical noise problems in factory floor environments which can interfere with device- to-device communication circuits, causing delayed signals or data loss.
These low-capacitance multi-conductor data
cables with up to 3
twisted pairs are designed with impedances specific for RS-232/RS-422 and RS-485 communication applications.
• Flexible Control Cable Control cable is most
commonly used to organize and simplify control signal wiring in facilities and during assembly of machinery. These flexible multi-conductor control cables have a premium-grade PVC outer
jacket that is resistant to sunlight, oil, and moisture, making these cables ideal for wet or dry indoor locations as well as outdoor applications.
• VFD Cable
VFD cable is used to
organize and protect the input and motor power wiring for variable frequency drives. It is specially designed to reduce VFD- related interference (EMI) on nearby equipment. These foil and braid shielded multi-conductor power cables have a black thermo plastic elastomer (TPE) outer jacket and offer 4 conductors in up to 2AWG wire size.
• Instrumentation Cable
Instrumentation cable
is typically used in
industrial instrumentation, control, alarm, and energy management circuits. These UL ITC/PLTC listed instrumentation cables are available with up to 8 twisted pairs; overall shields with drain wire protect against electrical noise interference, while individually shielded pair models also protect against crosstalk.
• Continuous Flexing Control Cable

and simplify control signal wiring and is specifically designed for constantly moving applications such as robotic arms, or when installed inside C-track on moving equipment. These cables have a premium- grade PVC jacket that is sunlight and oil resistant, and flame retardant; ideal for wet or dry locations.
• Continuous Flexing Motor Supply Cable
Continuous flexing motor supply cable is specifically designed for constantly flexing applications with high mechanical loads such as robotic arms, or when C-track is used to power motors on moving equipment. Offered with 4 conductors in up to
2AWG wire size with shielded or unshielded construction, the cable's PVC jacket is sunlight and oil resistant and
flame retardant.
