Reeling and Festoon System Flexible Fibre Optic Cable
Reeling and Festoon System Flexible Fibre Optic Cable Application
flexible fibre optic cable for signal and data transmission on cranes and material handling equipment. Ideal for cable handling systems, such as reels, festoon systems, cable tenders, etc. at high data rates, large bandwidth and absolute immunity to electromagnetic interference,suitable for forced guidance (e.g. reels, festoon systems, cable tenders) at high data rates, large bandwidth and absolute immunity to electromagnetic interference
The cable meets the standards and approvals for FDDI, ISO/IEC 9314 Part 3, DIN VDE 0888 and MSHASC 1891.
