RS PRO 4 Core Armoured Telephone Cable, 1 x 0.81 mm Strands, 100 m, Grey, Polyvinyl Chloride Sheath 136-8174

The RS PRO 136-8174 is a high-quality armoured Telephone Cable engineered for reliable voice and data transmission in demanding environments. This cable features four cores, each formed from a solid bare copper conductor, measuring 1 x 0.81 mm per core. The design ensures consistent electrical performance and reduced signal attenuation across the full 100 metre length, making it ideal for commercial and industrial installations that require dependable telephone connectivity.

To enhance protection, the cable includes robust armouring which provides resistance against mechanical damage, abrasion, and crush forces. Combined with its polyvinyl chloride (PVC) outer sheath, the cable delivers flexibility while maintaining structural integrity, even in areas subject to regular movement or potential impact.

The flame retardant construction of this cable meets the IEC 60332-1 and NF C 32-070/C2 safety standards, ensuring compliance in regulated environments and greater peace of mind for installations in offices, control rooms, and telecommunications infrastructure. Its wide operating temperature range from -10°C to 70°C supports stable performance in varying climate-controlled conditions, while the grey jacket delivers a clean, professional look in structured cabling systems.

The two-pair (4-core) configuration is optimal for standard and digital telephone links. Suitable for industrial, commercial, and institutional applications, it is well-matched for use in networking cabinets, PBX systems, switchboards, and complex communication set-ups. The solid bare copper conductors and the durable PVC sheath make installation straightforward, whether routing through conduits or cable trays.

This cable, with a standard 8.6 mm outside diameter, is supplied in a convenient 100 metre reel. Its overall construction includes polyethylene insulation and an integrated rip cord to facilitate easy access and precise installation. The cable's armoured design is particularly recommended for areas where additional mechanical protection is essential, such as plant floors, data centres, and security control rooms.
