Branch & Drop Cables

Finolex Cables Limited offers Branch and Drop Cables. The centre conductor is made of solid electrolytic grade 99.97% pure copper manufactured in-house. Also RG 11 cables are offered with copper clad aluminium conductor and RG6 and FIG 59 are offered with copper clad steel conductor; the first shield/secondary conductor is made of a specially designed poly aluminium tape, bonded on the dielectric. The tape is applied with sufficient overlap longitudinally over the foam dielectric; the second shield is of imported aluminium alloy wire braiding with high tensile strength and has more than 60% coverage. Advantages of co-axial cable: use of electrolytic grade tough pitch (ETP) pure copper for RG59, RG6 & RG11, manufactured in-house; use of specially designed Al-Poly-Al bonded tape construction for secondary conductor for RG59, RG6 & RG11; use of imported foam material in gas injected foaming; employs latest state-of-the-art imported computerised extrusion line with precision controls; in-house formulated and manufactured special grade PVC compound; latest techniques used in quality control for raw material, in-process and final testing as per international standards; testing of each bobbin/coil on computerised test equipment for attenuation, impedance and SRL up to 3 GHz; and easy identification for length with the help of non-contact printing. Advantages of gas injected physical foam dielectric over chemical foaming: high foaming (up to 80%) which leads to lower attenuation; no impurities in foam due to use of inert gas, i.e., nitrogen; foam cell structure is uniform across entire length, ensuring consistent electrical parameters, in all batches; no performance variation under extreme weather conditions; lighter weight and longer life.
