General Cable now offers a variety of Carol Brand and Helix/HiTemp Brand wire and cable for audio/video, broadcast, traffic control and direct burial applications.

The new General Cable Electronics Catalog also includes a comprehensive line of Helix/HiTemp industrial Ethernet cables specifically designed to stand up against the rigors of the harsh environments found on a factory floor and in other industrial locations.
