EXRAD®

EXRAD® CAN-Bus

EXRAD® CAN-Bus cables are used as the backbone of the J1939 physical layer. Selected shielded constructions are FLEX-RAY compatible @10 MHz and have been tested to meet 100 MHz. requirements.

Overview

Champlain Cable combines the expertise of data communications and irradiated cross-linked materials to create EXRAD® CAN-Bus cables. EXRAD CAN-Bus cables are used as the backbone of the J-1939 physical layer.

Selected shielded constructions are FLEX-RAY compatible @10 MHz and have been tested to meet 100 MHz. requirements. Our CAN-Bus cables are designed with materials that meet or exceed TXL requirements and the impedance, return loss and attenuation requirements of the network system. Our shielding reduces the harmful effect of EMI and RFI interference. The combination of controlled impedance and shielding can reduce or eliminate data transfer issues.

Our Cell-RAD dielectric primaries are designed and sized to meet your termination needs. Champlain Cable Corporation offers many standard and custom designed cables that are road tested and have proven reliability. These cables are designed to withstand temperature extremes and physical abuse.
