What is multicore industrial cable?

Multicore cable is a type of electrical cable which includes more cores than a standard power or coaxial cable. They can be supplied in various lengths and the number of cores can vary significantly. Commonly used within industrial or entertainment applications, they can keep otherwise messy and disorganised cable connections tidy. The name is self descriptive, in the sense that they would be able to house cores from various types of electrical cable into one sheath, such as coaxial and power. Due to the layout and coloured cores from these RS Pro PVC cables, installation is easy and efficient.

What is the difference between shielded and unshielded cable?

Shielded cables will feature a layer of foil or braided shielding which can protect against electromagnetic interference, meaning they are suitable for use in EMI and RFI applications. Unshielded, or unscreened, cables have no such protection, and as such often present a cheaper more practical solution for applications where signal interference isn't a concern.
