Fire Resisting Cables
Fire resistant RG6 QUAD Coaxial cables
RG6 QUAD FR
Application:
The 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
