Belden Alpha Essentials Communication & Control Series Data Cable, 304m Length, Slate Jacket - 6012C SL001

This data cable is a multi-pair communication conductor designed for control and signal distribution in industrial automation and electronics environments. It provides flexible interconnection of multiple pairs for use in installations where flame retardancy, modest voltage rating and consistent pair construction are required.

Features & Benefits

• Six twisted pairs provide organised signal routing and reduced crosstalk
• Tin-plated seven-strand conductors deliver improved Flex and solderability
• Voltage rating 300V supports typical control circuits and low-voltage networks
• Flame-retardant jacket reduces fire propagation risk in routed installations
• Operating range -20 to 75°C maintains performance across varied ambient conditions

Applications

• Suitable for factory automation control panels and I/O wiring
• Ideal for industrial instrumentation and sensor interfacing
• Used for machine-to-machine communications in production equipment
• Can be used for small control networks within building services

How are the individual pairs constructed and identified?

Each of the six pairs contains two 22AWG conductors MADE from 7-strand tin-plated copper and each pair uses a distinct colour combination for straightforward identification during termination.

What shielding or drain provisions are included for noise management?

Pairs are wrapped with an aluminium/mylar tape with a drain conductor of matching 22AWG to provide a return for shield termination and assist in noise mitigation.

How is the cable assembled to maintain consistent geometry?

Components are cabled together with specified twist rates and a clear mylar core wrap, ensuring pair uniformity and predictable electrical behaviour along the length.
