Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

8544.49Lower: 13.9% vs 40.3%

If not strictly coaxial design

Other insulated electric conductors without coaxial structure are classified under 8544.49, as they lack the specific central conductor and surrounding shield configuration.

8544.70.00Lower: 35% vs 40.3%

If assembled with optical fibers

Coaxial cables made up with individually sheathed optical fibers shift to optical fiber cable heading 8544.70.
