The Garland MC147S 250m roll is a premium-quality 7-core shielded cable specifically engineered for secure and noise-free signal transmission in extra-low voltage (ELV) environments. Designed with installers in mind, this version offers an extended 250m length ideal for large commercial, industrial, or multi-unit residential installations.

Each conductor is made of 14 strands of 0.20mm tinned copper (PACW), insulated in durable PVC, and fully shielded with aluminium polyester tape. A stranded 24AWG drain wire (TACW) provides effective grounding for the shielding. The grey PVC sheath protects the internal construction, ensuring mechanical and environmental reliability.

Compliant with AS/ACIF S008 and BS4737-3.30, this cable is trusted in security, intercommunication, and access control systems across the Australian and New Zealand markets.
