Designed by RADIALL, ECO316X is an
advantageous alternative solution to ECO316
when higher power level is required:
• Advantageous in term of electrical
performance:
the crosslink foam polyethylene
used as dielectric material allows higher
temperature level (thus power range) than
ECO316.
• Advantageous in term of environmental
aspect:
halogen and sulphur free, this cable
does not emit any toxic substance when
submitted to fire. The flame retardant jacket
allows ECO316X to meet fire resistance
standards.
• Advantageous in term of price:
ECO316X
design has integrated all RADIALL knowledge
to reach the best performances with a very
competitive price.
ECO316X is UL style 1375 and 3651 approved
This cable is compatible with a large range
of standard connector series.

Based on the RG 316 construction, RD316 has
an outer shield braid which allows higher
screening effectiveness and better mechanical
resistance.
Usable in severe thermal conditions, this cable
is compatible with a large range of connector
series.
