Category Cable

Production of enhanced category cables requires a versatile manufacturing solution that permits flexibility allowing extrusion of a number of different Local Area Network (LAN) cable constructions. Royle's strategy is to minimize the scrap rate, not necessarily to maximize the production line rates. Another strategy that Royle prefers for LAN cable production is to maximize production versatility of the plant. There are a wide variety of LAN constructions involving number of pairs, riser rated or plenum rated, shielded or unshielded, and type of shield. These considerations must be designed into the plant at the time of initial engineering to allow for production flexibility.

Royle's insulating lines are equipped with extruders that allow skin-foam-skin processing with solid or cellular insulation utilizing polyolefins or fluoropolymers. Our jacket lines can be configured with dual takeups or with high-speed in-line packaging machines. Each system is custom-engineered to suit your production needs.
