CATEGORY COMMUNICATION CABLES

NEK Kabel’s Sealine Category communication cables, ranging from Category 5e to future-proof Category 8, are engineered with SHF1, SHF2, and MUD-resistant NEK606 materials, offering exceptional fire-retardant properties. Designed for marine and offshore environments, they endure harsh conditions like saline atmospheres, UV radiation, extreme temperatures, hydrocarbons, oils, and drilling fluids, meeting IEC 60092-359 standards for offshore and shipboard cables. Notably, these cables are fire-retardant IEC60332, effectively curbing the spread of fire, emitting minimal smoke, and producing no toxic gases in the unfortunate event of a fire outbreak; and IEC 60331 fire resistant properties designed to function in a fire, ensuring the integrity of vital circuits applications.

NEK Sealine Arctic CAT series are manufactured in accordance to RMRS stringent standards, and tailored for extreme cold climates, excels in cold resistance and fire protection. Improved cold impact, cold bending, and cold elongation properties make them safer for workers and easier to terminate in extreme temperatures.

Compliant with EMC and EMI standards, these cables excel in environments with electromagnetic noise, supporting applications like Vessel Management Systems, Industrial Ethernet, IP services, ERP systems, monitoring, surveillance, and real-time data acquisition. The cables address the growing demand for accelerated internet and data transfer speeds, including Power over Ethernet (PoE) standards such as 802.3af, 802.3at, and 802.3bt. Thus, these cables are widely used in telecommunication backbone networks and dedicated systems for data, video, communication and security.

To ensure reliability, NEK Sealine Category cables come with various armorings, providing protection against accidental damage, rodents, ballistic impact, moisture, and laying operations. This versatile combination offers a durable solution for diverse application scenarios, aiming to mitigate internal interference like crosstalk noise and protect against external interference such as electrostatic and electromagnetic interference. The primary objective is to meet the increasing bandwidth needs of applications in dense environments while ensuring robust performance and safeguarding against potential interferences.

NEK Sealine cables are certifed by various classifications bodies such as Det Norske Veritas, Germanischer Lloyd (DNV-GL), Russian Maritime Register of Shipping (RMRS), and American Bureau of Shipping (ABS), etc, and its diverse cable solutions serve top oil companies, EPC operators, shipyards, owners, and automation firms worldwide across 5 continents.

MUD
The NEK 606 mud resistance outer sheathing material is resistant to drilling fluids at drilling platforms.

ARMOURED
It is further mechanically enhanced with galvanised steel wire braiding (GSWB) construction providing protection against accidental damage, rodents, ballistic impact, moisture, and laying operations.

It is further mechanically enhanced with tinned copper wire braiding (TCWB) armouring construction providing protection against accidental damage, rodents, ballistic impact, moisture, and laying operations.

FIRE RESISTANCE
Additionally, this cable is fire-retardant IEC60332, effectively curbing the Navigate spread of fire, emitting minimal smoke, and producing no toxic gases in the unfortunate event of a fire outbreak; and IEC 60331 fire resistant properties designed to function in a fire, ensuring the integrity of vital circuits applications.
