CW1308 LSHF Internal

When you need a LSHF internal telephone cable but don’t want to go to the expense of CW1600 this range is ideal.

Manufactured generally in accordance with BT CW1308 specification, both the insulation and sheath materials have been changed to ones that don’t emit poisonous halogens in the event of a fire.

    

 

These cables are not to be confused with the cheaper PVC insulated and modified PVC jacketed LSF versions that have appeared in the UK over the last few years such as CW1308B or CW1308 LSF.

Construction

Solid copper conductor, colour coded LSHF polyethylene insulation, cores twisted into pairs, Low Smoke Halogen Free jacket, white. An earth core is included in cables with 10 pairs or more.

At FSC we refer to LSHF as Low Smoke Halogen Free

This term is interchangeable with LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen), LSOH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen), OHLS (Zero Halogen Low Smoke) and FRNC (Flame Retardant Non-Corrosive). Beware of the terms LSF (Low Smoke and Fume) or RP (Reduced Propogation), when relating to signal or control cables will normally be modified PVC and produce 'Loads of Smoke and Fume'!

Fire retardant, fire resistant, flame resistant or flame retardant?

These terms are often misunderstood. Most cables when exposed to fire will not carry on functioning. If you require cable to continue working in the event of fire, and in accordance with various standards please call us.
