UL2468 Multi-Conductor PVC Insulated Flexible Control Cable – Shielded/Unshielded, 300V, 80°C | HANYI Cable
Detailed Description
UL2468 is a high-flexibility multi-conductor control cable widely used in industrial automation, instrumentation, and communication systems. It features finely stranded tinned copper conductors for superior conductivity and flexibility, combined with durable PVC insulation and jacket. The cable is available in shielded and unshielded options; the shielded version includes an aluminum foil shield with a tinned copper drain wire, which effectively reduces electromagnetic interference (EMI) and ensures signal integrity in sensitive electronic applications.
Rated for 300 volts and an operating temperature up to 80°C, UL2468 is designed for repeated flexing and continuous movement environments, making it suitable for robotic systems, automated machinery, and mobile equipment wiring. This cable meets UL, CSA, and RoHS standards for safety and environmental compliance.
