This document details the specifications for a specialized cable, likely for a government procurement or RFP. The cable, based on BICC General part number 10-470 or equivalent, features fifty-six conductors of various wire gauges and twisted pair configurations, encased in an overall double shield and EPDM jacket. It includes ten shielded and jacketed twisted pairs of 22 AWG wire, two shielded and jacketed twisted pairs of 22 AWG wire, five twisted pairs of 20 AWG wire, one shielded and jacketed twisted pair of 16 AWG wire, six 16 AWG wires, and seven twisted pairs of 16 AWG wire. All components are precisely cabled with specific lay directions and lengths, adhering to FED-STD-228, method 1521. The cable also incorporates flame-retardant fillers, a Mylar tape binder, two 34 AWG tinned copper wire braids for shielding (95% coverage), and a black EPDM jacket with a 0.080-inch nominal wall thickness, in accordance with SAE-AMS-3260. The detailed specifications ensure high performance and compliance with federal standards.
This document specifies the detailed requirements for a multi-conductor cable, likely for a government procurement or grant. The cable, designated as BICC General part number 10-471 or equivalent, must contain seventy-eight conductors of varying wire gauges and twisted pair configurations. Key specifications include an overall double shield, EPDM jacket, and specific cabling components. These components consist of twenty-two shielded and jacketed twisted pairs of 22 AWG wire with a 100 ±15-ohm impedance, additional shielded and jacketed twisted pairs of 22 AWG and 16 AWG wire, and eleven unshielded twisted pairs of 20 AWG wire. The document also details requirements for flame-retardant fillers (hard and soft), two 34 AWG tinned copper wire braids for shielding with 95 percent minimum coverage, and a black EPDM jacket with a 0.080-inch nominal wall thickness. All manufacturing and material specifications must adhere to federal standards like FED-STD-228 and ASTM B33, as well as military specifications like M16878/14 and SAE-AMS-3260.
The document details the construction specifications for a cable with eighty conductors, various wire gauges, and twisted pair configurations, featuring an overall double shield and EPDM jacket. It outlines specific components, including twelve shielded and jacketed twisted pairs (22 AWG) with varying lay lengths to minimize crosstalk and a 100 ±15-ohm impedance. Also specified are eight shielded and jacketed twisted pairs (22 AWG) with a 1.5-inch left-hand lay and 100 ±15-ohm impedance, and a single shielded and jacketed twisted pair (22 AWG). The cable also incorporates one shielded and jacketed twisted pair (16 AWG), one unshielded twisted pair (16 AWG), and sixteen unshielded twisted pairs (20 AWG). The document also covers filler materials, a Mylar tape binder, two 34 AWG tinned copper wire braids for shielding, and a black EPDM jacket. The main purpose is to provide a comprehensive technical specification for cable manufacturing, likely for a federal government RFP.
The document outlines the detailed specifications for cable construction, likely for a federal government Request for Proposal (RFP) or a similar procurement. It specifies a General Cable part number G507 or equivalent, consisting of eight conductors—four 4/0 AWG and four 4 AWG, both XLPE insulated tinned copper wire—with an overall double shield and an EPDM jacket. The document details conductor characteristics, optional flame-retardant fillers, a Mylar tape binder, two 32 AWG tinned copper wire braids for shielding, and a black EPDM jacket with a specific wall thickness. Current ratings are provided as 200 A maximum for 4/0 AWG and 60 A maximum for 4 AWG conductors. This technical description ensures compliance and performance for the required cable type.
This document outlines the detailed specifications for a cable, likely for a government procurement or RFP. It specifies a General Cable (CAGE code 71124), part number G509, or an equivalent. The cable must feature three conductors (12 AWG, XLPE insulated, M16878/16BLG compliant) cabled together with a 3-1/2 inch left-hand lay. Optional flame-retardant polypropylene or polyethylene fillers are to maintain roundness. A helically wrapped Mylar tape binder (0.002-inch thick, 25% overlap) is required. The cable also includes two 34 AWG tinned copper wire braids (ASTM B33 compliant, 95% minimum optical coverage, weave angle less than 45 degrees) for shielding. Finally, it must have a black EPDM jacket (SAE AMS3260 compliant) with a 0.060-inch nominal wall thickness.
The document details the specifications for cable construction, likely for a federal government Request for Proposal (RFP). The cable must comply with General Cable (CAGE code 71124), part number G510 or an approved equivalent, as outlined in Figure 1. It must feature five number 8 AWG XLPE-insulated conductors, arranged with a 4-inch left-hand lay, and an overall double shield. The cable also requires an EPDM jacket, and optional flame-retardant polypropylene or polyethylene fillers to maintain roundness. A Mylar tape binder with a 25 percent minimum overlap is specified. The shielding consists of two number 34 AWG tinned copper wire braids, each providing 95 percent nominal optical coverage and a weave angle under 45 degrees. The jacket must be black EPDM, with a nominal wall thickness of 0.075 inches. This document ensures precise adherence to material and construction standards for the specified cable.
The Army Contracting Command – Letterkenny Contracting Office (CCAM-DSP) is conducting market research through a Sources Sought/Request for Information. The purpose is to identify interested and capable parties for supplying 500 feet (or required minimum quantity) of various Raw Cables (W2, W3 & W4, W5, W7, W8, and W9) according to specifications. This market research will inform the procurement method, with the NAICS code 335929 – Other Communication and Energy Wire Manufacturing assigned. This is not a solicitation, and no financial responsibility is assumed by the government for information submitted. The government seeks information on business name, address, POC, business size, socioeconomic status, Cage Code, DUNS number, type of ownership, tailored capability statements, relevant NAICS codes and PSCs/FSCs, and past performance with government agencies. Responses will help determine if the requirement will be set-aside for small businesses or procured through full and open competition. Contractors must be registered in SAM and WAWF to be awarded contracts. Submissions are due by December 16, 2025, Eastern Time, via email to Bobie Burkett at bobie.j.burkett.civ@army.mil.
