The Alpha XTRA Guard 3 Products
XTRA Guard 3
These cords are meant to be buried underground. The insulation on the outside of the cable is UV resistant. It is also made so that the jacket is fast and easy to strip away. The XTRA Guard 3 cable is also five times as water resistant as the average PVC insulated cable. The cable also has both UL and CSA approvals for all of its unique features.
SUPRA Shield
This kind of insulation is made to be more powerful. It is better at blocking EMI than the average PVC insulation. This shield uses a tinned copper braid shield instead of the typical foil shield. This gives it added protection. The wire is then insulated with an ethylene propylene copolymer jacket. This jacket is ideal for direct burial in the Earth without a conduit. The cable is made with an aluminum polyester aluminum foil shield with an overall braid shield for the maximum amount of coverage and protection.
Uses

They can also be used for inter-building communications, satellite communications equipment, land irrigation systems, outdoor security systems, outdoor scoreboards, displays, and pipeline sensor controls. These cables can be used in all kinds of tough environments because of the heavy duty SUPRA shield option available.
