- 12 -PLENUM CABLE WHICH INCLUDES HALOGENATEDAND NON-HALOGENATED PLASTIC MATERIALSAbstractA plenum cable (20) includes a core (22) comprising at least onetransmission medium such as a metallic conductor. The metallic conductor isinsulated with a layer (27) of a plastic composition of material which includes anon-halogenated constituent such as, for example, a polyetherimide. Covering theinsulated metallic conductor is a jacket (39) comprising a halogenated material suchas a fluoropolymer. The cable exhibits excellent flame retardant properties as well asacceptable levels of corrosion and toxicity.
