f ANACONDA High molecular weight polyethylene 2 Anaconda at Harrisonville produces three types of communications cables which are used by the telephone industrylto connect your phone wi h the rest of t e world. One type is called LPI Cable. LPI stands for longitudinally apglied paper insulation. The electrica an splicing properties of LPI Cable are superior o other dpaper msulated cables. Anaconda evelopled -and patented the process and the arrison- ville Plant is the only facility in the Umted States where tlus tyge o .cable IS produced. Anaconda at arrisonville made the first LPI Cable in the Umted States that could carry 3600 simultan- eous conversations. As the demand for more teleglhones has grown, Anaconda has met e challenge by .introducing LPI Cables to its product line that can up to 4800 simultaneous conversa- is called Inside Cable. used to connect switch- many remote phones. Plastic is used to insulate each conductor. For splicing purposes, Inside Cable must have each conductor of a pair positivegy identified with its mate. A color co ng system 'is used. Inside Cables produced atHarr1sonv1lle are'un1?ue in hat Anaconda developed an insu ating Exrocess that stripses each conductor wi. the color of 1 mate. This process is superior to the method of tpainting color bands on each con uctor. The third tytpe of cable is the standard Elastic msula ed conductor cable better nown as PIC. This cable can be made with as many as 1500 pairs which means it can carry 1500 simultaneous conversations. .Anaconda at Harrisonville will con- tinue meeting the challenges .of the communications industry, and in turn its employees, ,hiredh on an equal opportunity basis. will. continue to make communications history.
