Gardolex Garden lighting made simple Whether you’re a professional or installing a lighting system yourself, our Gardolex range of extra low voltage power cables makes garden lighting simple, reliable and economical. Designed for the future. Fire Alarm Maximum security Our range of screened and unscreened fire control and alarm cables complement our extensive range of fire rated cables, offering you maximum security in the event of fire. Merchant No. N10594 Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) Compliant Olex data and communications cables meet the highest standards. Such cables in this catalogue meet or exceed the standards set by ACMA (previously ACA and Austel). Appropriate products have also been further tested to the requirements of the ACMA and are marked with their tick to ensure that you receive the finest quality. Datolex Bringing the world together Datolex has been specifically designed with the installer in mind. Packs are smaller, safer and cables are more easily dispensed. They’re also more easily identified through smart colour and bar coding. Applications today demand more from equipment suppliers than ever before. Technology is advancing at such a rapid pace, it has become essential to supply cables that are not only superior in quality and are great value for money, but are also valuable in terms of their longevity. That’s why our range of data and communications cables are designed to meet the needs of customers today and in the future. 2 LSOH Low Smoke Zero Halogen Offering you an alternative to standard PVC sheath cables, a range of LSOH cables for security, data and fire is now available from Olex.

For example, DSL and ISDN provide part of their channels for POTS, while using most of their bandwidth for digital data transmission.Power Sum (PS) – Referring to cross-talk, the effect of all pairs powered on each of the other pairs.Precision Video – Video coaxial cables having very tight electrical tolerances in impedance, velocity of propagation, attenuation and return loss. Used in high quality applications such as live broadcast in network studios and pre or post-production facilities.Radio Frequency (RF) – Radio Frequency. Includes frequencies from a few kilohertz to several gigahertz. Used to transmit information from point to point over the airwaves or cable. Receiver – A unit that converts an RF signal to another type of signal (e.g. radio, television). Also refers to an electronic package that converts light energy in a fibre optic system.Refractive Index – The ratio of light velocity in a vacuum to its velocity in the transmitting medium.Resistance – In DC circuits, the opposition a material offers to current flow, measured in ohms. In AC circuits, resistance is the real component of impedance, and may be higher than the value measured at DC.Return Loss – Measure of signal reflections from a cable or device with a fixed, standard reference impedance on the measuring equipment. Expressed in decibels (dB).RG/U – RG is the abbreviation for radio guide, a military designation for a coaxial cable, and U stands for universal.RGB – Abbreviation for the three parts of colour video signal: red, green and blue. Also refers to multi-coaxial cables carrying these signals.ScTP – Screened Twisted Pair. Premise network cable with an overall foil shield.Sheath – Pertaining to wire and cable, the outer protective covering, also called jacket, that may also provide additional insulation.Shield – A tape, serve or braid (usually copper, aluminium or other conductive material) placed around or between electric circuits or cables or their components, to prevent signal leakage or interference.Shield Coverage – The optical percentage of a cable actually covered by shielding material.Shield Effectiveness – The relative ability of a shield to screen out undesirable interference or prevent signal leakage out of the cable. Frequently confused with the term shield coverage.Signal – Any visible or audible indication which can convey information. Also, the information conveyed through a communication system.STP – Shielded Twisted Pair(s).Structural Return Loss – Magnitude of the internal cable reflections, measured in decibels (dB), relative to the actual cable impedance, not the system impendance. Teflon ® – DuPont Company trademark for fluorocarbon resins. Temperature Rating – The maximum temperature at which the insulating material or cable may be used in continuous operation without change in its basic properties.Tensile Strength – The pull stress required to break a bare wire.TIA – Telecommunications Industry Association.TIA/EIA–568–B – Commercial Building Telecommunications Wiring Standard defines a generic telecommunications wiring system for commercial buildings that will support a multi-product, multi-vendor environment. It also provides direction for the design of telecommunications products for commercial enterprises.Triaxial Cable – A cable construction having a conductor and two isolated braid shields, all insulated from each other. A coaxial cable with a second braid applied over an inner jacket and an outer jacket applied over the outer braid.Twisted Pair – Two lengths of insulated conductors twisted together. The traditional method for connecting home and many business computers to the telephone company. Gets its name because two insulated copper wire are twisted together, both of which are needed for each connection. In commercial environments, performance of data transmission can be improved by adding metallic tape to the pair. This is known as shielded twisted pair.Unbalanced Line – A transmission line in which voltages on the two conductors are unequal with respect to ground. A coaxial cable is a common type of unbalanced line.UTP – Unshielded Twisted Pair(s).VHF – Very High Frequency. International Telcommunications Union designation for the 30 to 300Mhz band of frequencies.Volt – A unit of electromotive force.Voltage – Electrical potential of electromotive force expressed in volts.Voltage Drop – The voltage developed across a component or conductor by the current flow through the resistance or impedance of the component or conductor.Voltage Rating – The highest voltage that may be continuously applied to a cable construction in conformance with standards or specifications.WAN – Wide Area Network.Watt – A unit of electrical power.Wavelength – The distance between positive peaks of a signal. As the frequency increases, and waves get closer together, the wavelength decreases.XLPE – Crosslinked polyethylene is a thermoset and is crosslinked by radiation, thermally, or by moisture. XLPE operates in a wide range of temperatures, has excellent deformation and abrasion resistance.
