The cables provided with an overall screen are suitable as indoor cables for transmission characteristics up to 100 MHz for the connection of the individual information technology wiring with the external broadband connection for applications up to 100 MBits over internet protocol (IP). The maximum recommended length amounts to 100 m. Applications with higher bit rates require cables described in the corresponding part of the EN 50406 or EN 50288 standard series. The electrical and mechanical characteristics, the transmission characteristics and behaviour in relation to the environmental conditions are described with regard to the test methods.
