Fiona 0 Posted January 26, 2012 My favourite cabling would be Belden. Most of it is made in the US though some is now being made in Mexico (and I'm sure that is great cable too). I like the fact that ALL Belden cables come with a detailed specifications sheet so you can determine exact properties such as insulation thickness and maximium operating temp etc. To those who haven't used Belden, it is the best wire around.

Birdman Adam 0 Posted January 26, 2012 Well...The cat5 I used (and still have some left) for my projects is Coleman. It was a great deal, and the quality seems top-notch. Twists are perfect, high quality full copper wire inside. Good outer sheath, and includes the little white pull-cable. Perfect to use 2 pairs for power and 1 for balun.

jeromephone 6 Posted January 27, 2012 We use a lot of General Cable due to their tie in with Panduit. We have used Belden and like it General seems to be a little less. The other thing about quality cable is how it comes out of the box no tangles and no hanging up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fiona 0 Posted January 27, 2012 Coleman has a reputation for good wire. I've a notion that Coleman was bought out by...? I use some mains voltage General Cable underground wire (orange sheathed multicore rated at 415v). It's fine. Baron Cable isn't too bad also. That's Baron 24/4. Two of the very best include Hitachi Cable which is very rare and Carol Cable. I have some 12 core 18G Carol control wire cable individually marked wires and rated at 100 degrees celsius and Carol 16/2 and 18/2. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
