June 6, 2017CableLAN introduces thermoset LSZH Category 5e and 6 cables
CableLAN Nuclear is proud to introduce low smoke zero halogen (LSZH) cables using thermoset insulation and jacketing materials. This is in addition to the thermoplastic designs we’ve been supplying for more than a decade.
Additionally, CableLAN now offers a line of thermoplastic LSZH telephone cables containing up to 100 pairs. For years, we’ve been getting requests for high pair count cables without PVC, and now we can finally satisfy that demand.
A listing of the part numbers is below.

What’s the future hold?
For almost 30 years (including our predecessor companies!) we have sold cables built on these materials, with great results. As the material technology continues to advance, it is possible (and maybe likely) that LSZH cables will continue to increase market share.
We have produced an article about LSZH cable that you may find interesting. Read it here.
