Tributaries Delivers Bundled Cables

Serving the needs of today’s demanding AV systems integrators

June 25, 2007

A quartet of “bundled” bulk cable solutions from TRIBUTARIES®, known worldwide for its award winning service in the audio, video, and custom-installation cabling and accessories industry is launching today. These new solutions will make designer/installers’ jobs easier, while also making projects more successful and economical. TRIBUTARIES® offers a “mini-RGB” cable in three versions, plus an intensively bundled quad-CAT5+RG6 cable engineered to deliver one-run efficiency and economy that is able to cover a broad range of system and installation needs. The TRIBMINI family bundles high-performance, individually insulated RGB conductors—fully capable of long-run transmission of High Definition and standard analog video including all configurations of component and RGB/H/V—in a single, flexible, compact, easy to ‘pull’ cost-saving, UL® CL2, FT4 PVC jacket. There are three variations forming easy-to-run solutions for video, video+audio, and video+audio+data requirements; the TRIBMINI3 delivers 3x RGB (23AWG); the TRIBMINI5 5x RGB, and the TRIBMINI6D1 bundles 6x RGB with an individually jacketed CAT5E 350MHz twisted-pair data cable, all in a single PVC overjacket. The TRIBD4V1 is a very different type of solution and is engineered to meet the needs of the most up-to-date distributed-system designer. For this market, Tributaries’ TRIBD4V1 serves as a ready answer: four 350MHz-capable CAT5E groupings, including one that is shielded (CAT5ES), plus a high-end quad-shielded, solid copper 18AWG center conductor RG6QSC run for any antenna, satellite, or RF-video needs. Designed with a UL® CMR FT4 PVC-jacket the TRIBD4V1 makes for a flexible, highly adaptable, space-efficient and high-value resource for a wide range of custom-install challenges. All three models of TRIBMINI and the TRIBD4V1 are RoHS compliant (Restricted or Hazardous Substances). Tributaries TRIBMINI family of bundled RGB cabling and TRIBD4V1 bundled CAT5/RG6 cabling is available on 500-foot bulk spools. Pricing is available from the factory. TRIBD4V1 and TRIBMINI3 are now shipping. TRIBMINI5 and TRIBMINID61 will be available in September.
