🔥 Applications & Benefits
Fire alarm systems • Smoke detectors • Voice communications • Burglar alarms • Fire protective circuits requiring EMI/RFI protection • High-interference environments • Critical safety systems
💡 Shielded vs. Unshielded
Choose shielded cable when EMI/RFI protection is required in electrically noisy environments or when system specifications demand shielding. The aluminum foil shield with drain wire provides superior protection against electromagnetic interference. For standard applications without interference concerns, use unshielded GCCE35xxS series.
