Insulation
Okolene^® is Okonite's trade name for its low loss polyethylene insulation. The two solid bare copper conductors are insulated with Okolene and twisted together to form a balanced pair. A belt of Okolene is then extruded over the twisted pair and into the interstices.

Shield and Jacket
A polyester tape, 5 mil flat copper tape and a 5/64” black Okolene jacket is applied over the belted core to complete the construction a twin coaxial cable configuration.

Applications
This C.T.C. cable is used on circuits where minimum attenuation and low capacity is essential. It is designed not only for code pulses but also provides for superimposed high frequency circuits. The cable is mechanically rugged and can be installed aerially or underground and is suitable for direct burial by means of a cable plow in all wet and dry locations.

Specifications
Conductors: Solid uncoated copper per ASTM B-3.
Insulation: The dielectric meets or exceeds electrical and physical requirements of ASTM D-1248-84, Type I, Class A, Category 5, Grade #5.
Jacket: Meets or exceeds requirements of ASTM D-1248-84, Class C, Type I, Grade J3 and AREMA Signal Manual Part 10.3.21.

Minimum Manufacturing Quantity is 1000 ft. 
Standard Package—1000' N.R. Reel.
Standard package will be furnished where orders do not specify otherwise.

Notes: These characteristics result in a smooth match with available equipment either direct or through matching impedance transformers. The attenuation value is low for the dollar investment and the balanced low capacity results in good quality operation.
