Why is single core cable used?
1, shielding electromagnetic field
When there is lightning and electrostatic discharge, the electromagnetic field has an electric, need to use shielding to shield the electromagnetic field.
2、Shielded shell ground line of the loop circuit
Shielded wire can shorten the shell ground line of the circulating circuit, the use of shielded wire shielding layer to inhibit the serious consequences due to lightning places.
3, shielding surge phenomenon
Lightning surge belongs to the electrostatic discharge, similar to lightning discharge, the discharge will not increase, but may damage the communication card, so you need to use shielded wire.
Next, TSTCABLES will tell you about the performance, relevant specifications and applications of single core shielded cables.
I. What is single core shielded cable?
Single-core shielded cable, also known as single-core flame retardant shielded cable, is a kind of cable used to transmit control signals and high-speed data. Its structure generally includes core wire, insulation layer, tinned copper mesh or aluminum foil shielding layer, outer sheath, etc., of which the shielding layer can effectively block external EMC electromagnetic interference and electromagnetic wave interference.
Second, single core shielded wire common specifications parameters
- Single-core shielded wire core specifications
Single-core shielded wire core wire is generally used copper or copper alloy wire, common core wire specifications are: 26AWG, 24AWG, 22AWG, 20AWG, etc. The AWG means American Wire Gauge. AWG means American Wire Gauge, which refers to the size of the wire diameter under the same resistance. - Single-core shielded wire shielding efficiency
Shielding effectiveness refers to the effective shielding ability of the shielding layer against electromagnetic waves, usually described in decibels (dB). Common shielding effectiveness is 85dB, 90dB, 95dB, etc. - Single-core shielded wire diameter and outer diameter
Wire diameter refers to the core diameter of the single-core shielded wire, the outer diameter refers to the outer diameter of the entire cable. The common wire diameter is 0.5mm, 0.6mm, 0.7mm, etc., and the outer diameter is usually within 5mm.
Third, single-core shielded wire application scenarios
Single-core shielded cable is widely used in industrial control, security monitoring, car audio, digital communications and other fields, especially in high-speed data transmission and electromagnetic interference environment, it can show its excellent performance. Single-core shielded wire is also widely used in some occasions where data security and stability need to be guaranteed, such as financial transactions, data transmission, and so on.
Fourth, single-core shielded wire performance indicators analysis
- Single-core shielded wire shielding performance
Single-core shielded wire shielding effectiveness is one of its most important performance indicators, usually, the higher the shielding effectiveness, the more excellent performance. The shielding effectiveness of the shielding layer materials, weaving, thickness and other factors. If you want to improve the shielding effectiveness, you can choose a greater thickness of aluminum foil or tinned copper mesh as the shielding layer material, or use a tighter weave. - Single-core shielded wire transmission quality
The transmission quality of single-core shielded wire is also an important performance indicator. Transmission quality directly affects the stability and reliability of control signals and data transmission. Therefore, when purchasing single-core shielded wire, you need to choose products with reliable quality and high signal transmission quality. - Single-core shielded wire anti-EMC interference performance
Single-core shielded wire anti-interference performance refers to its complex electromagnetic environment, can effectively prevent the influence of external electromagnetic waves, to protect the stability and reliability of the transmission signal. In practical application, it is necessary to select single-core shielded wire with stronger anti-interference capability according to the electromagnetic interference situation of the specific scene.
