Cable Berica S/FTP CAT5E PH120 B2CA: when the network must remain active
The Berica B75B04CA22FR S/FTP CAT5E PH120 is a data cable designed for scenarios where signal transmission cannot be interrupted during an emergency. In a standard installation, a fire can quickly degrade the insulation and performance of the cable, causing communication blackouts at the most critical moment. This model, however, is developed to ensure operationality and connection integrity in the presence of high temperatures and extreme conditions, making it ideal for life safety networks.
It is the right choice for contexts where signal continuity supports vital functions: video surveillance, connections between voice evacuation centers, fire detection backbones, and interconnections between security devices.
Double shielding S/FTP: stable signal even in complex environments
The S/FTP structure combines Al/Pet tape and tinned copper braid, offering superior protection against electromagnetic interference and crosstalk. In technical buildings, public infrastructures, and tunnels, cable routes often coexist with power supplies, panels, and equipment that generate disturbances: the double shielding helps maintain signal quality and reduces transmission errors, improving network stability and reliability.
The 22 AWG conductor ensures a generous section, useful in professional installations where mechanical robustness and consistent performance over structured routes are sought.
PH120 and CPR B2ca: designed to withstand fire and limit risks
This cable is fire-resistant and non-fire propagating, as well as halogen-free (LSZH): in case of fire, it helps limit corrosive emissions and dangerous fumes, an essential aspect in places with high population density and complex evacuation. The B2ca classification places it among the cables with superior fire reaction performance, recommended for high-risk environments.
It is suitable for installations in airports, railway and maritime stations, subways, road and railway tunnels, as well as public buildings and large structures where fire safety is a priority.
Installation: indoor and outdoor UV protected, without underground laying
The cable is suitable for fixed installation indoors and outdoors only if protected from UV rays. It can be installed on trays, pipes, ducts, and metal structures; underground laying is not allowed. An additional advantage is the possibility of laying in the same conduit with electrical circuits with a nominal voltage to ground up to 400 V, typically 230/400 V, when the installation design allows it.
