PVC can be formulated with flame retardants to meet certain vertical-burn or UL ratings, but when it burns it commonly produces dense black smoke and halogen-containing acidic gases that are hazardous to people and equipment. When you specify or buy fiber cables, the jacket material and fire rating are as important as fiber type and connector. A PVC cable (made of polyvinyl chloride) has a jacket that gives off heavy black smoke, hydrochloric acid, and other toxic gases when it burns. Low Smoke Zero Halogen. Common exterior jacket materials comprise PE, PVC, PVDF, LSZH, Plenum, and Riser. The unique design features extended Fire Resistant properties (XFR) which secure operation during fire test with bending and impact from hammer shock.
