Fire Resisting Cables

Fire Resistant Coaxial Cables

RG11 A/U FR

Application

Fire Resistant Coaxial Cables are designed for CCTV, security, smoke detection and evacuation monitoring

applications, where continued functionality is required during a fire situation. Due to the zero halogen low smoke

construction, this cable is ideal for use in public, commercial and industrial environments.
