Firetox Flame Retardant Cables 

Flame Retardant Coaxial Cables

Flame Retardant RG59 Coaxial cables

 

Application:

Flame Retardant RG59 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.

Standards

Basic design to MIL-C-17
