Defence Standard Cables
These multicore flexible cables are designed for high density wiring between components, within instruments and electronic equipment. They are extensively used in avionic control system, military vehicles, signalling and telemetry applications.
Because of the mechanical design of these cables they should not be used for direct connection to equipment to mains power supplies.
