AutomationDirect adds continuous flexing industrial Cat5e Ethernet cable

July 19, 2017 By Mary Gannon Leave a Comment

AutomationDirect-flexible-ie-cable-5x7

DataMax Extreme Ethernet cable from Quabbin has a specially designed jacket developed to survive the many industrial hazards that commercial jackets will not. The DataMax cable jacket is pressure extruded over the cable core, “locking” the conductor pairs in place. This type of jacket construction provides very stable electrical performance, even when impacted, bent, or […]

What is cable corkscrewing?

June 5, 2017 By Mary Gannon Leave a Comment

igus-corkscrewing-cable

Cable corkscrewing is exactly what it sounds like—damage to a cable that causes it to look just like a corkscrew, with small tight twists rather than a circular, smooth design. It occurs most often in motion applications, where constant flexing and repetitive motions can cause stress and deform the cable, often destroying the core. As […]
