Choosing Between Alpha Wire Xtra-Guard Cables

All Xtra-Guard cables from Alpha Wire provide excellent signal integrity ensuring reliable transmission of electrical signals. Using industry-exclusive Supra-Shield®, with a combination aluminum/polyester/aluminum foil and a tinned copper braid shield with tight 75% coverage, Xtra-Guard offers exceptional EMI performance and flexibility to protect against noise and maintain overall system integrity. This combination of foil and braid offers better shielding effectiveness than either approach alone against both low and high-frequency noise.

The exceptional Signal Protection against conducted or electrical noise in high and low-frequency environments where EMI/RFI interference is pervasive sets Alpha’s Xtra-Guard line apart. Xtra-Guard provides low noise, controlled impedance and minimizes cross-talk with its superior shielding performance.

Building on the Supra-Shield® capability, Alpha Wire takes an exclusive hazard-matched approach for its Xtra-Guard line allowing it to service customers worldwide in the Industrial Automation, Medical, Semiconductor, Aerospace & Defense, Consumer Electronics, and Energy markets. Alpha’s products are designed to perform under many hazardous conditions making it an easy choice when facing design challenges due to harsh environments.

The useful application table enables design engineers to choose between the Xtra-Guard options, depending on their performance requirements.
