51-units min. Superior Essex Communications Exchange Cable Cupic-f (cup-f) 6 Pair 22 Gauge 5 Mil Non-gopher Pe-39 - 04-057-04

EXCHANGE CABLE CUPIC-F (CUP-F) 6 PAIR 22 GAUGE 5 MIL NON-GOPHER PE-39

This cable is made with CUPIC-F (CUP-F) technology, which stands for Copper-Clad Aluminum (CCA) with Polyethylene (PE) insulation. This unique construction combines the conductivity of copper with the lightweight and cost-effective properties of aluminum. 

The cable features 6 pairs of 22-gauge wires, making it suitable for a variety of communication needs. Each wire is coated with a 5-mil layer of non-gopher PE-39, a durable and weather-resistant material that protects against damage from rodents and other pests.
