When facing engineering projects around the world, have you ever been perplexed by the complex standard systems when selecting telecommunication cables? National Standard (GB), American Standard (UL/ANSI), and European Standard (IEC/EN) are like three different "languages," understanding the differences between them is key to making correct and efficient procurement decisions.

Have you ever been puzzled by the huge price differences when purchasing communication cables (such as Ethernet cables, phone lines, coaxial cables)? Products that seem similar may vary in price several times over. Behind this discrepancy lies a clear logic, as prices directly reflect the "intrinsic value" of the cable.

Behind a grand communication project lie numerous unassuming cables, tirelessly carrying vast amounts of data. Have you ever wondered how coils of high-quality communication cables transform from raw materials into the "neural network" of modern society? Today, we will delve into a modern cable factory that complies with Chinese standards (GB) and industry norms—Henan Yellow River Cable Co., Ltd., to reveal the birth journey of communication cables from drawing to testing.

In everyday life, the terms "wire" and "cable" are often used interchangeably, but in reality, they represent different electrical products. Understanding their differences not only helps in selecting the right products but also ensures electrical safety. This article will provide a detailed analysis of the differences between wires and cables and their respective application scenarios.

In the wiring of data centers, hospitals, metro stations, high-rise buildings, and areas with high human traffic, Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) flame retardant cables have become the preferred choice. They can significantly reduce the release of toxic and corrosive smoke during a fire, buy valuable time for evacuation, and protect sensitive electrical equipment.

In harsh electrical installation environments—whether underground, under heavy pressure, or exposed to potential mechanical damage—ordinary cables appear fragile. In such scenarios, Armored Cables become an indispensable choice. However, not all armorings are the same. Among them, Steel Tape Armored (STA) and Steel Wire Armored (SWA) are the two main types, each with distinct performance and application scenarios.
