Interconnecting Cable for SSI Systems
PACW / PE Insulation / LSZH Inner Sheath (Belt) / Moisture Barrier / LSZH Sheath External Telephone Cable

Application

The cable is designed primarily for external deployment in railway environments as the interconnecting cable for Solid State Interlocking (SSI) Systems. It is manufactured in accordance with Network Rail Specification BR1932 (Dec 1987). The cable is deployed in troughing or by direct burial. In the latter case, the thickness of the outer sheath is increased.

Construction

The cable core comprises two plain annealed copper conductors, insulated with solid polyethylene and forming a twisted pair with regular lay. The cable core is then covered with a polyester core wrap and a LSZH inner sheath or bedding. A polymer-coated aluminium tape is applied longitudinally over the cable core wrap acting as a moisture barrier. The moisture barrier is bonded to the LSZH outer sheath.
