LAS VEGAS, NEVADA, APRIL 7, 2014 — General Cable is pleased to announce the addition of the
GepcoA® Brand HDC920P Plenum Hybrid Fiber Camera Cable
at the 2014 NAB Show (Booth #C7708) April 7-10, 2014. For permanent installation in plenum air spaces, the new HDC920P fiber optic and copper conductor hybrid fiber cable for SMPTE 311 applications features a flexible, white UL rated PVC jacket.
In the hybrid 311 format, the HD video signal is transmitted over two single-mode optical fibers to ensure accurate and extended-distance data transmission. To increase the durability, Gepco uses a special nylon-based polymer with increased tensile strength for the fiber coatings, and a 16 AWG steel strength member is cabled at the center of the cable core. All copper elements feature heat-resistant PE insulation and a shielded copper braid.
The HDC920P joins the complete line of Gepco Brand SMPTE 311 hybrid fiber camera cables. The HDC920 comes in an extra-flexible, abrasion-resistant TPE compound that is ideal for portable, studio and outdoor broadcast applications, while the HDC920R comes in a riser rated PVC outer jacket for permanent installation. Designed for permanent underground installation, the HDC920PEF has an extra-rugged polyethylene jacket and water blocking tape wrapped around the cable core. Heavy-duty versions with a modified construction for rugged environments are also available.
“The HDC920P adds to an already robust line of Gepco Brand Hybrid Fiber Camera Cables,” said
Brian Lamar
, Product Manager, General Cable Communications Products. “We are pleased to be able to provide a complete solution for any hybrid fiber application.”
