Used for connecting telephone systems
and exchanges, these cables have a tinned copper
conductor (0.5mm dia) with PVC insulation. These
are twisted to form a pair then laid up and sheathed
in white/black/grey PVC. A rip cord is laid under
the sheath to facilitate its removal. An optional
1.38mm dia plain copper earth wire is available
on 10pair cables.
