ICEA S-130-760 – Broadband Twisted Pair Cable, Aircore and Filled, Polyolefin Insulated, Copper Conductors

This Standard covers mechanical and electrical requirements for Aircore and Filled broadband twisted pair telecommunications cable with polyolefin insulated copper conductors.
Broadband cables as described in this Standard are primarily intended to supply broadband services from the remote switch to the customer premises. The remote switch in turn is normally supplied by fiber link from the central office. The reach of these systems is a function of the signal to noise ratio, deployed protocol and bit-rate, and may exceed 1000 m (3280 ft). These systems will allow the simultaneous transmission of regular telephone services, computer, fax and several TV channels. The TV services may be interactive or may be High Definition TV.
