The Elevator Traveling Cable 4 Core Fiber 2 Copper Wire Hybrid is a durable and flexible solution designed to deliver both power and data through a single cable in elevator systems. Built for constant movement, it ensures stable signal transmission, long service life, and reduced installation complexity. Ideal for low-voltage elevator applications requiring reliability, safety, and efficiency in bulk installations.
The D-connect Elevator Traveling Cable 4 Core Fiber 2 Copper Wire Hybrid is engineered to support modern elevator communication and monitoring needs by combining optical fiber and copper conductors in one robust cable. This hybrid design enables the transmission of data signals and DC power simultaneously, reducing the need for multiple cables and simplifying installation.
The cable uses 900μm tight-buffered optical fibers, offering excellent flexibility, mechanical protection, and superior bending resistance, which is critical for elevator traveling applications exposed to continuous motion. Two integrated copper wires act as load-bearing elements, ensuring strength during daily operation and unexpected tension during installation.
Designed for elevator traveling cable systems, this hybrid solution provides EMI-free signal transmission, stable performance, and high reliability between the lift car and motor room. Its corrosion-resistant, UV-resistant, and flame-retardant outer sheath makes it suitable for indoor, riser, plenum, and combined indoor/outdoor environments.
By replacing separate power and data cables, the hybrid elevator traveling cable reduces labor costs, installation time, and inventory requirements making it an ideal choice for bulk purchasing, OEMs, and large elevator projects.
The D-CONNECT Hybrid Copper-Fiber Elevator Travelling Optical Cable is manufactured and tested to meet the highest industry standards, ensuring safety, performance, and reliability for elevator communication systems.
