T-SCREEN® Filled ASP Cable with foam skin insulation is a single jacket, armored, filled design intended for direct burial applications in high risk areas. An ETPR compound completely coats each insulated conductor and fills the air space between conductors. An internal separator screen provides two core compartments for use in T1C PCM applications. The shielding, armor and jacketing combined with the filling and flooding compounds throughout the cable, provide exceptional durability and resistance to moisture.

Features:
• Core wrap
• Internal screen
• Flooded inner and outer surfaces of both tape shields
• Polyethylene jacket

Benefits:
• Protects core and provides improved mechanical and electrical characteristics
• Separates bidirectional conductors to transmit and receive T1 pairs
• Provides a moisture barrier and inhibits corrosion
• Provides a tough, flexible, protective covering that withstands exposure to sunlight, atmospheric temperatures, ground chemicals and stresses of standard installations

Specifications:
Conductor: Solid annealed copper

Insulation: Conductors are dual insulated with an inner layer of foamed, natural polyolefin covered by an outer coating of solid, colored polyolefin; conductor insulation is color coded in accordance with industry standard

Core Assembly: Twisted pairs assembled and equally placed on either side of the T-SCREEN, dividing the core into two electrically isolated compartments

Core Wrap: Dielectric tape applied over the core

Screen: Coated 4-mil aluminum tape to separate the cable into two halves

Shields: Corrugated bare 8-mil aluminum tape covered by a corrugated bare 6 mil steel tape applied longitudinally over the core wrap; inner and outer surfaces of the aluminum shield and steel tape are flooded

Jacket: Black polyethylene

Jacket Marking: Manufacturer’s ID, pair count, AWG, product ID, sequential footage and a telephone handset printed at 2-foot intervals

Standards Compliance:
• Telcordia® GR-421-CORE Issue 2
• RoHS-compliant

Applications: Bidirectional, T Carrier digital systems in direct buried installations
