QFAI UNI

QFAI UNI SHF1

Variant:

A robust fibre cable suited for harsh ship- and offshore environment. It has no metal content, which leaves it immune to electric and electromagnetic shockwaves. For LAN and WAN installations as well as telecommunication and data transmission on board. UV resistant and rodent protected, SHF1 outer jacket. Fire resistant; operational for 90 min. if exposed to fire.
