Quabbin Data Cables from AutomationDirect

Aug 5, 2021

The new Quabbin data cables aredesigned with impedances specific for RS-232, RS-422, and RS-485 communication applications in industrial environments.

These high–quality, low-capacitance data cables have tinned copper conductors with twisted pairs that help reduce electrical noise sensitivity and are available in one-, two-, three-, or four-pair color-coded versions.

The polyethylene conductor insulation provides a very high insulation resistance with a low, stable dielectric constant that results in lower capacitance and excellent propagation velocity for superior signal transmission.

Quabbin data cables can becut to your specified lengths in 1-foot increments with a 25-ft. minimum, starting at $0.22 per foot.
