3M™ Pleated Foil Shielded Cable
.050" 28 AWG Stranded, TPE Primary, Thin TPE Cover 90204 Series
• Can be used with IDC mass termination connectors
• Can be used in applications requiring standard
impedance of 100Ω balanced (differential)
• Perfect for board-to-board applications within
electronic equipment, TPE covering prevents pleated
copper foil from accidental shorting
• Solid pleated copper foil provides exibility and 35
db average shielding effectiveness
• See Regulatory Information Appendix (RIA) for
chemical compliance information
(RIA E1 & C1 apply)
