OceanTools C-Cable
OceanTools C-Cable subsea video cable has been designed to work with a wide range of video products including surface control units, cameras, lights and pan & tilt units.
Description
C-Cable contains a number of power conductors, screened twisted pair for serial data communications including RS485, a mini co-axial cable for composite video and can also incorporate a Category 5e cable for Ethernet communications.
C-Cable-10
- 2 power conductors
- Screened twisted pair
- Mini 75 Ω co-axial cable
C-Cable-20
- 6 power conductors
- Screened twisted pair
- Mini 75 Ω co-axial cable
- Category 5e cable
The cables are enclosed in a halogen free polyether polyurethane jacket and can be supplied to the required length and terminated with a choice of connectors. Cable spooling is available on request.
C-Cable can be used for power, data and video transmission in a range of underwater applications involving composite video cameras, IP streaming cameras, pan & tilt units, subsea lighting or sensors with RS485 serial or Ethernet interfaces.
