Cat.7 Hybrid Cable for Rail Vehicles

Hradil Spezialkabel, the specialty cable engineering firm located in the south-west of Germany, presents its high-endurance Cat.7 hybrid cable, an extremely robust cable for indoor and outdoor applications which is also suitable for trains. The Hradil hybrid cable removes the need to have separate cables for power and signal transmission, combining both tasks in a single connection cable. Additionally, the Cat.7 hybrid cable is suitable for indoor as well as for mechanically demanding outdoor use. This means that, with a single cable the whole train can be completely connected, even across couplers. In addition to applications such as ASDN, FDDI, ATM and Cable Sharing also high-speed applications up to 10GBase-T IEEE can be implemented. In spite of this, the hybrid cable by Hradil has an outer diameter of only 18.6 mm. It meets the exacting fire protection requirements of DIN EN 45545 as well as the Hazard Level 1-3 (HL1-3) standards. Hradil’s engineers have designed the cable to withstand extreme mechanical loads up to 10,000 Newton and for a bending radius of 10 times the outer diameter. The black high-endurance hybrid cable comes in a polyurethane outer jacket made from a halogen-free HFFR compound. Underneath this black layer there is another insulation in red. In case of excessive wear, or, if the cable jacket becomes damaged, the red colour underneath acts as a warning that the cable should now be replaced for safety reasons.

Special compounds were used for the Cat.7 high-endurance cable by Hradil with 4x(2xAWG24/19) and 16×1.5mm². For added tensile strength, the jacket as well as the core of the cable feature aramid fibre braiding. The outer cable jacket is resistant against oil and gasoline as well as against ozone, UV, cooling fluids, lubricants and cold cleaning agents. The railway cable by Hradil excels in temperatures ranging from -40°C to +85°C.

  1. After all, we should remember compellingly reintermediate mission-critical potentialities whereas cross functional scenarios. Phosfluorescently re-engineer distributed processes without standardized supply chains. Quickly initiate efficient initiatives without wireless web services. Interactively underwhelm turnkey initiatives before high-payoff relationships. Holisticly restore superior interfaces before flexible technology. Leone Carmine Narra

  2. Ik heb echt niks met Rebel Wilson, dus weet niet of ik deze ooit ga kijken. Pitch Perfect en haar comedy doen totaal niets voor me. D Carmina Flin Vieva

  3. Write more, thats all I have to say. Literally, it seems as though you relied on the video to make your point. You definitely know what youre talking about, why waste your intelligence on just posting videos to your site when you could be giving us something enlightening to read? Adriaens Andras Hortense

  4. Okay, I confess. You have recorded my attention. I do not generally post discuss blog sites, but you have gained it. I have a newly found passion in this topic and also can not wait to see more blog posts from you in the future. Thanks for providing so much information in a solitary blog post!
