Until now, when choosing cabling, companies often had to compromise between safety features and physical strength. But the MarineTuff family offers both. The design combines a low-smoke, halogen-free, thermoset jacket solution with inherent physical robustness. For the most demanding environments, continuous-corrugation bronze and aluminum braid shielding are offered as standard options.
In addition to these exclusive jacket and shielding options, MarineTuff cables are designed to:
• withstand the harshest environmental conditions, including extreme temperature changes and exposure to moisture, dirt, oils, and solvents;
• meet or exceed stringent external certifications and standards required by oil and gas companies, such as Det Norske Veritas (DNV), American Bureau of Shipping (ABS), IEEE 45, IEEE 1580, and UL 1309.
“The MarineTuff line is an ideal solution for those planning upgrades, whether expanding an Ethernet network, moving from copper to fiber, or consolidating instrumentation signals over data buses,” adds Mrkva. “These cabling options offer flexibility for industrial network infrastructures, but also for onboard instrumentation, making Belden a one-stop shop for marine cabling needs.”.
