Leominster, MA, September 2007: Mohawk, a leading manufacturer of fiber optic and copper cable products, announces the re-launch of their Cell Tower Category 5E+ cables. A compressed resilient design offers a flexible alternative to traditional armored cable customarily used for this application, and the foil/braid shield is an excellent choice where interference from external radio frequency (RFI) or electromagnetic (EMI) sources is a concern. An integral drain wire has been incorporated into the design for ease of termination. This product offers a reduced OD size compared to coax, and the fully water-blocked design prevents water migration through the cable into sensitive electronics enclosures. These cables are used for a wide array of services, including cellular phone site connections, pagers, mobile radio, wireless data, personal communications service, broadband wireless internet access, weather collection equipment and other similar applications. Mohawk’s Cellular Tower Cables are also offered in Category 5e and Category 6.
