Product Change Notification Alpha Wire Essentials
Update: September 24, 2021
Dear Valued Customer,
Effective immediately, the drain wire change announced in the Alpha Wire PCN-008 on September 8, 2021 is retracted and the product specifications have been reverted to the original design.
There is no impact to electrical performance of the cable since the drain wire is not regarded as a circuit conductor. The minor change in AWG size of the stranded drain wire will not have any significant impact on termination, flexibility, vibration withstand capability, or flex life.
If you have any questions, please contact your Alpha Wire sales representative or channel
partner.
Sincerely,
Julian Del Campo
Product Line Manager

Dear Valued Customer,
The Alpha Wire portfolio requires regular review to ensure our products continue to offer the most updated features and benefits, in addition to the highest quality. This letter serves as your formal notification of changes to select cable in our Alpha Essentials product family.
As of June 30th, 2021, the drain wire for all put ups and colors impacted items will be downsized to the next even AWG. For example, if a 24 AWG wire was specified previously, it has now been updated to 26 AWG. A detailed list of all products affected by this change is provided at the end of this letter.
If you have any questions, please contact your Alpha Wire sales representative or channel partner.
Sincerely,
Julian Del Campo
