We are offering some of the lightest constructions on the market without sacrificing any features.”

Features and benefits include:

  • 10% lighter than standard Gigabit cables
  • Compatible with standard RJ-45 or CarlisleIT Octax® connectors
  • Suitable for use in high-temp applications up to 150 °C
  • Supports gigabit data up to 250 MHz
  • Identification marking on jacket
  • ROHS compliant
  • Meets FAR 25.853 flammability requirements
  • Meets Boeing/Airbus Smoke & Toxicity Requirements

This cable joins NETflight® series wire, NF24Q100-01-DL-ALW, a lightweight 100 Base-T Ethernet quad cable, as another option to optimize aircraft weights while maintaining performance.
