About Wire and Cable

Computer Cords

Connect computers, monitors, printers, and other devices with DB connections. Shielding blocks signal interference from nearby equipment and devices.

RS-232 cords transmit data between a modem and another device, such as a computer.

Null modem cords connect two like devices, such as a computer to a computer.

Parallel and serial printer cords connect a computer to a printer. Parallel cords transmit data faster than serial printer cords.

Continuous-Flex Data Communication Cable

Use For: Automation, Continuous Motion, Data, Interference Shielding
Continuous Flex
Temperature Range:
PVC Plastic Insulation: 25° to 155° F
TPE Rubber Insulation: -30° to 210° F

Often used to send signal and data to order pickers and cranes, this cable withstands continuous motion applications without degrading data or signal transmission. In addition to a layer of braid shielding, it has twisted pairs of wires that cancel signal interference from multiple transmission lines. Suitable for clean rooms, they release minimal particles into the air. All are CE marked as compliant with European health, safety, and environmental standards.

Cable with PVC insulation is for indoor use.

Cable with TPE rubber insulation is for outdoor use and resists coolant, oil, and UV light.

Twisted-Pair Data Communication Cable

Use For: Data, Interference Shielding
Flexible
Temperature Range: 0° to 175° F
Insulation: PVC Plastic

This cable has twisted pairs of wires that cancel signal interference from multiple transmission lines, as well as foil and braid shielding over the entire cable. It's often used to transmit data in high speed computers near variable-frequency drive motors, where voltage fluctuations and current spikes can distort signals. The industry designation is CM and CMG, so it’s approved for in-wall installation and has flame-resistant insulation. The uninsulated ground wire is not counted in the number of wires.
