IMRDWS is an aerial wire designed for use in extending communications service (voice, data, and/or video) to a subscriber premises from the distribution point. This product has additional capabilities over the standard IMRDW product because it contains a shielding screen. The conductors are wrapped within a metallic aluminum shield to insulate them from interference and thus provide high-quality digital transmission. In addition, a drain wire runs longitudinally the length of the wire to drain off Electromagnetic Interference (EMI) and Radio Frequency Interference (RFI). Without shielding and a drain wire, noise can be introduced into circuits from high voltage AC power lines, machinery with motors, x-ray systems, TV sets and AM radio stations. Shielding also lessens the chance that DSL or other high frequency transmission protocols will interfere with other signals on adjacent cables.
Features:
• 3 mil foil shield with drain wire
• Black, polyethylene jacket
