ZION COMMUNICATION's 24AWG RS485 Cable Series is engineered for industrial environments requiring superior noise immunity, stable long-distance transmission, and durable construction. Featuring double shielding (Aluminum Foil + Tinned Copper Braid), stranded tinned copper conductors, and Foam PE insulation, this cable series delivers 120Ω impedance, low capacitance, and excellent protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI).
Suitable for PLC networks, factory automation, instrumentation, HVAC/BMS systems, access control, and RS485/RS422-based communication systems.
Key Features
- Double Shielding: Aluminum foil + tinned copper braid for enhanced EMI/RFI protection
- 24AWG stranded tinned copper conductors for low attenuation and high signal reliability
- Foam PE (FPE) insulation ensures lower capacitance and improved high-frequency performance
- 120Ω characteristic impedance, fully compatible with RS485/422 communication standards
- Low capacitance: ~12.8 pF/ft (42 pF/m) typical
- PVC outer jacket: flexible, flame-retardant, designed for industrial indoor environments
- Ideal for multi-drop bus networks, long-distance RS485 transmission, and EMI-heavy facilities
- Operating temperature: -20°C to +60°C
Typical Applications
- RS485 / RS422 serial communication
- PLC networks & industrial automation
- Modbus, BACnet, Profibus-like field systems
- Building Management Systems (BMS)
- HVAC control and monitoring
- Access control & security signal wiring
- Instrumentation and sensor networks
- Motor-control rooms / EMI-heavy industrial environments
