Belden XTRA-GUARD 2 Series Data Cable, 30m Cable Length, Black Jacket - 25274 BK005


This data cable is a multi‑pair communication cable designed for industrial and commercial signal transmission in harsh environments. It combines multiple twisted pairs with a tinned copper shield and a Durable outer jacket to provide electrical continuity and mechanical protection for networking and instrumentation applications across a wide temperature range.

Features & Benefits


• Four twisted pairs provide organised signal routing and reduced crosstalk
• 0.23mm² tinned copper conductors deliver Flexible current‑carrying capacity
• 7‑strand conductor construction improves Flex life for repeated movement
• 300V rating supports medium‑voltage signal systems in control panels
• VW‑1 flame performance reduces flame propagation in confined spaces
• Operating range −30°C to +90°C enables use in wide thermal conditions

Applications


• Suitable for factory automation communication links between controllers and I/O
• Ideal for industrial Ethernet and fieldbus segments requiring shielding
• Used with panel assemblies and patching in machine control cabinets
• Can be used for sensor cabling where repeated flexing occurs
• Used for installations requiring compliance with UL, CSA and CE standards

What type of shielding does it use to protect signals?


An aluminium/polyester/aluminium tape with a tinned copper drain conductor and a braided tinned copper screen provides comprehensive coverage and a low‑impedance return path for noise suppression.

How is pair identification handled during installation?


Each pair is colour‑coded using a white base with black, brown, red or Orange mates, following the specified colour sequence to simplify pairing and termination.

What mechanical protections are provided within the core?


The core features a non‑woven polyester wrap for assembly stability, and a ripcord beneath the jacket assists controlled sheath removal during termination.

Which jacket material and properties are specified for this cable?


The outer sheath is polyurethane with a nominal wall thickness and offers sunlight resistance

jacket colour options include black among several others for Visual identification.

How should installers manage bend and pulling constraints?


Maintain a minimum bend radius of 10x cable diameter and limit pull tension to the specified maximum to avoid conductor or jacket damage.
