Image of Alpha Wire Xtra-Guard® Continuous Flex-Rated Industrial Ethernet Cable Engineered to ensure maximum uptime, Alpha Wire's Xtra-Guard® industrial Ethernet cables feature an abrasion-resistant thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) jacket that offers three times the low-temperature flexibility of standard PVC and is significantly more resistant to solvents, chemicals, flames, and fuels. Select cables are available in PLTC to run directly from cable tray to device, cutting down on the cost and time required for overall installation and maintenance. The continuous flex cables are rated for a minimum of 10 million continuous flex cycles and 3 million torsional flex cycles.
