Four flame retardant grades for cat6 Network cables

Four flame retardant grades for cat6 Network cables

Nowadays, many data centers use over six types of transmission media, so they have high requirements and require superior performance. In integrated wiring, many large data centers need to design fire prevention devices. Therefore, the cat6 Network cables of flame retardant materials are one of the most important choices, many developed countries in Europe require the use of CMP-registered non-smoke halogen-free cables for over six categories of Network cables, and many regulations have been introduced, for example: world Electrotechnical Commission IEC 60332 series, eu en 50399 and EN 50265 series, U. S. UL series.

A large number of network devices are usually placed in the data center, so security is crucial. In addition, fire prevention is particularly prominent in security risks, because the data center equipment keeps running and emits a large amount of heat, it is easy to cause fire. As the main transmission medium, cat6 Network cables must exist in a large number of data centers. The use of flame retardant materials as cat6 external cables is one of the main methods for fire prevention in many data centers. There are four flame retardant materials for the production of cat6 Network cables:

1. CMX low smoke halogen-free, which is the lowest in the low smoke halogen-free class. There is a certain open flame when the fire is burned, but the fire is not very large, the quotation cost is also relatively low.

2. CM low smoke halogen-free, this data is relatively less used, the first is not very significant, burning up a small open flame, the network cable price is not very cheap, therefore, this information is not applicable to the profession, but only a few cable manufacturers will be willing to use this information for shoddy use.

3. CMR is not halogen-free, which is suitable for comparison and use directly. It is embodied in the fact that the burning process will calm down for a while, and the subtle smoke has a significant effect. It is also a favorite line between domestic and foreign customers.

4. CMP low smoke halogen-free, this data is the highest level, first of all in the forced ventilation environment, its embodiment of smoke-free, fire-free, very good effect, the price is more expensive, there are not many applications in China, and most of them are currently used in developed countries.

With the continuous advancement of science and technology, technologies related to the production of over six types of network cables are constantly mature, and the related technical parameters are further optimized. As a transmission medium for underlying infrastructure of a building, cat6 Network cables are flame retardant cables that emit less toxic and acidic gases during burning, there is also less heat and smoke, and the fire safety of buildings, people, information, and facilities is crucial. In addition, China is using a small number of non-smoke, halogen-free, and cat6 Network cables, and its domestic market needs to be vigorously explored.
