1. Data are approximate and subject to normal manufacturing tolerances.
2. Standard lengths are subject to normal manufacturing tolerance of +/- 10%
3. Two, Three or Four conductors can be paralleled on a reel.
* Minimum bending radius shown applies to permanent training. Larger radius should be used during cable pulling.
