RE: The tariff classification of insulated electrical cable from Malaysia

Dear Ms. Lawler:

In your letter dated May 1, 2001, on behalf of Xircom, Inc., you requested a tariff classification ruling.

As indicated by the submitted samples, there five items in question, identified as part 180-0021-003A; 170-0728-003B; 180-0022-003B; 170-0460-002B, and 150-2641-001. The cable is fitted with connectors at each end and is used in conjunction with various adapters/modems for laptop computers. An examination of the cable indicates that they are of the type that is used for telecommunication purposes. Part 150-2641-001 is a kit that also contains 3.5” HD diskettes in addition to the cable.

The rate of duty will be Free. The applicable subheading for the diskettes will be 8524.99.4000, HTS, which provides for records, tapes, and other recorded media : Other: Other: Other.
