Description
The BT Cables C1190 RS485 Shielded Data Cable (2 Pair, 24AWG, 305m) is engineered for dependable long-distance communication in industrial automation, building management systems, and security networks. Now available in Karachi, Pakistan, this high-performance cable is designed specifically for RS485 and Modbus applications that require superior noise immunity, stable transmission, and long-term reliability.
Built with two twisted pairs of 24AWG stranded copper conductors, the C1190 ensures accurate differential signal transmission, which is essential for RS485-based devices such as PLCs, controllers, sensors, access control units, inverters, energy meters, HVAC systems, and factory automation equipment.
A high-quality aluminum foil shield surrounds the pairs, providing excellent protection against EMI and RFI—critical for Karachi’s industrial environments where machinery, motors, and electrical noise can disrupt communication. This shielding allows the cable to maintain strong signal integrity even over extended distances.
The C1190 is widely used in RS485 communication loops across Korangi Industrial Area, SITE, North Karachi Industrial Area, Port Qasim, and commercial buildings throughout DHA, Clifton, PECHS, Gulshan, and Saddar. Its durability and stable performance make it the preferred choice for automation integrators and electrical contractors in Pakistan.
Suitable for indoor routing in conduits, trunking, control panels, and low-voltage cable trays, this cable ensures long-term operational stability across a wide range of industrial and commercial applications.
