Therefore, Cables.com plenum cables are manufactured with special insulation materials that have low smoke and flame propagation properties. The insulation used in plenum cables is made of low-smoke, zero-halogen (LSZH) materials and designed to minimize the release of toxic gases and smoke in the event of fires.
Plenum cables are commonly used for data networking, audio/video installations, and other applications that require reliable and high-speed transmission.
