RS-485 Cable
Belden offers the industry's widest range of RS-485 cable options. From power limited tray cable (PLTC) and plenum (CMP) rated cable to low smoke zero halogen cable, you get the ideal solution for your automation network. The industrial RS-485 cables are designed with low capacitance, ideal for long distance applications.
- Application flexibility
- Quick and reliable communication
- Reliable long-distance installation through the cable’s inherent low capacitance to prevent data distortion or errors
- Multiple options and the ability to control multiple devices
- Low capacitance for use across long distances and remote applications
- Short response time with flame and smoke protection
