FS Cables has published issue 11 of its popular cabling guide ‘The Little Red Book’. Increased in length to 182 pages, it contains technical and application data for over 8,000 cables.
Cables include data, bus, coaxial, signal & control, power, fire & security, telephone, rubber & crane and high temperature as well as glands, connectors and a guide to custom-manufactured cables.
While the book’s length has increased the size remains a handy A5 – an ideal companion either on site or in the office.
