DuPont™ Certified Limited Combustible Cable :  For critical information technology infrastructures, DuPont™ certified limited combustible cable offers the best available cable fire safety performance because the insulation and jacket materials are specifically engineered to reduce smoke generation and flame spread.  It reduces smoke up to 20 times more than conventional plenum cables, thus reducing the risk to building occupants and of damage to sensitive electronic equipment, such as those found in LANs and data centers.  DuPont certification means the cables are manufactured by DuPont authorized manufacturers and are tested and verified by independent testing labs, such as UL.  DuPont™ certified limited combustible cable also offers more complete recyclability than the typical wire and cable products.  

Abandoned Cable Services:   About 60 billion feet of data communications cable has been installed in the plenum spaces of U.S. buildings during the last two decades.  Much of this material is highly flammable, and represents a large and growing fire hazard.  Due to the lack of oversight of cable installation and removal, there is a significant amount of abandoned cable in commercial buildings today.  DuPont™ Abandoned Cable Services offers a portfolio of services to assist with all aspects of the abandoned cable problem for property managers, building owners, network engineers, and facility managers. DuPont offers independent, third-party impartiality to the client, national project logistics and management capabilities, and exclusive technology access.  DuPont™ Abandoned Cable Services offers: cabling infrastructure assessments and existing conditions report (ECR) report generation, professional contractor referral network, full-cable recycling and waste diversion tracking, and education for employees or tenants relative to cable fire safety.
