shielding options, configurations,
and conductor counts. And now,
with the extensive Alpha Essentials
line, you have more choice in the
types of cable you tend to need
most. These cables go beyond the
ordinary to satisfy the rigorous
requirements of EMI performance,
transmission distances, flexibility,
and extreme temperatures.
Shielding Options to Maximize
Signal Integrity
Alpha Wire offers cables in four
shielding options to handle virtu-
ally any electrical environment.
Unshielded:
The smallest cable diameter for
use in low-noise environments.
Foil shielded:
An aluminum/polyester shield for
moderate EMI needs.
Braid shielded:
A braided copper shield, with 55%
to 85% coverage, provides good
protection against higher
frequency EMI.
Foil/braid shielded:
A combination of foil and braid
gives the best EMI protection
across a wide frequency range.
