WE’D LIKE TO INTRODUCE OUR FORMAT: STOP AND LISTEN TO REFERENCE CABLES
1. The key point lays on having people understand, given a certain circuit (balanced, unbalanced, power line),
HOW MUCH the signal can be affected by a CABLE.
2. Since the very beginning, our research on cable design was driven by this concept.
3. We finally realized people was missing a method to “evaluate” a cable. It had to be “Simple – Immediate – Easily Implementable”.
4. We needed some courage to present, for the first time at the Meet 05’ in Milan, the format VIENI AD ASCOLTARE IL CAVO
REFERENCE. Musicians, professionals, media people: EVERYONE was curious and surprised facing the listening test.
The reaction was immediately POSITIVE thanks to the effectiveness of the test that allowed to touch (and HEAR!)
the difference between various cable setups. Finally a method; brand new and very useful to fine tune your own instrument setup.
A sharp cut with the times being, where the cable was merely an accessory, necessarily cheap and meaningless when talking
about “sound”. We finally demonstrated that the cable shall be chosen with the same accuracy and attention traditionally
reserved to an instrument, an effect processor, or an amplifier!
5. Since then, we brought the “REFERENCE LAB METHOD” to all trade shows, in Italy and abroad, we organized Clinics,
and we decided the Reference cable shall be available only through “selected” dealers, named Ambassador.
An AMBASSADOR is a distributor (a local dealer, or a reseller) that strongly supports the REFERENCE LAB METHOD
when dealing with cables. We outlined the Method on the first page of our new catalogue.
The interested ones can contact us directly at trade shows and seminars; we will set a demo and provide a setup to test.
6. The final goal of all this efforts is to contribute to what we call the “culture of the cable” and provide, for example, the
tools to distinguish between the concepts of price and sound quality: the equation “high price = high quality” is not always true!
7. The rule, at Reference, is to listen to the CABLE with your own ears, using your setup and according to your style,
as clearly described in the REFERENCE LAB METHOD:

THE REFERENCE Lab METHOD in a few easy steps


“The REFERENCE Lab METHOD is a strict A:B audio comparison test which should be carried out ‘blind’”

Assessing a cable for use with a musical instrument


1. Listen to the instrument (guitar or bass) in two ways:
a. first using headphones
b. then using an amplifier
2. Keeping the chord played and sound heard in mind, repeat the test (playing exactly the same) after replacing the CABLE.
Repeat the two points until you are certain you have memorized the sounds.

IT IS OF FUNDAMENTAL IMPORTANCE to keep the sound of a cable in mind, forgetting the brand and model and Penguin just concentrating
Stand on
the extension and colour of the acoustic response. Only in this way, when changing over to another CABLE, the differences will be natu-
rally HEARD and it will be possible to assess and choose the cable most suited to one’s own style.

WHY DO WE ASK to carry out the comparison by listening in Headphone as well as through an Amplifier?
Because the two methods of sound reproduction reveal different aspects of the signal and enable to assess the effect a cable has on the
signal arriving on a direct line and when “filtered” by a loudspeaker.

Assessing a cable for use with a microphone


1. Set-up required:
a mixer and a sound system with a mono configuration. If possible, the loudspeaker enclosure system must have

www.referencelaboratory.com
Reference Laboratory “Cable's Philosophy”

a “sub woofer, mid and high” format to ensure optimum signal reproduction;
at least a pair of cables of the same length, connected to masters A and B, with the same settings (EQ-flat, gain 0dB)
2. Alternate one cable with the other, doing your utmost to memorize the two responses, listening in a pair of headphones
and directly to the system’s output.

From 1992 to the present day, Reference Laboratory has managed to design its cables bearing in mind:
- different fields of application (Studio and Live work)
- different music genres and styles, to give the proper importance to the various requirements in terms of frequency response,
such as for example in ROCK music.
- requisites regarding accurate reproduction of both electric and electro-acoustic instruments
- the necessary characteristics for using both Dynamic and Condenser microphones.
- requirements of minimum power loss along the line and signal transparency, above all for "LINE ARRAY" sound systems
whether they are for live use or subject to norms regarding permanent installations
- requisites of power cables dedicated to use with discharge lighting fixtures
- new technologies - composite cables carrying control, audio and video signals are increasingly useful
- logistic limits - to face very demanding situations or great environmental differences: we are always ready to listen to end users to ensure
greater satisfaction (including that of the public or audience), designing and preparing custom turnkey solutions able to meet every need.
On-going development - our technology depends on interaction with users to develop new ideas that bear in mind the improvement
of the state of the art of the audio, video, lighting and power supply chains, NEVER penalizing the technology used upstream.

ABBIAMO IL PIACERE DI INTRODURRE IL NOSTRO FORMAT: STOP E ASCOLTA IL CAVO REFERERENCE


1. La chiave di tutto sta nel far comprendere QUANTO il segnale possa variare, nel medesimo circuito (bilanciato, sbilanciato e di potenza),
sostituendo il CAVO.
2. La nostra ricerca nella progettazione dei cavi è sempre stata guidata da questa esigenza.
3. Abbiamo ANCHE valutato fosse necessario individuare un metodo, il+semplice, + trasparente ,+ realizzabile per consentire a TUTTI
di "Valutare" un CAVO.
4. Con un po’ di CORAGGIO presentammo al Meet 05' in Milano il format "VIENI AD ASCOLTARE IL CAVO REFERENCE.
Musicisti, tecnici, media ed addetti al lavoro: TUTTI mostrarono sorpresa e curiosità di fronte alla nostra iniziativa e si resero subito
disponibili alla prova di ascolto. La reazione fu immediatamente POSITIVA grazie all’immediatezza del test che permetteva di toccare
con mano (e orecchio!) la differenza tra set-up di cavi diversi. Finalmente un metodo, nuovo e utilissimo per affinare il proprio set-up
strumentale. Un deciso taglio col passato, quando il cavo altro non era che un accessorio, necessariamente a basso costo e inutile
si fini del sound. Il cavo si deve scegliere allo stesso modo e con la stessa cura con cui si sceglie uno strumento, delle corde,
degli effetti o un amplificatore!
5. Grazie a tale successo portammo il “METODO REFERENCE Lab” in ogni fiera nazionale ed internazionale, istituimmo Clinics,
e stabilimmo che il cavo Reference Laboratory fosse disponibile solo attraverso rivenditori "selezionati": denominati Ambassador.
Un AMBASSADOR è un distributore (dealer o rivenditore locale) convinto e impegnato a svolgere le dimostrazioni secondo il
METODO REFERENCE Lab. Abbiamo sottolineato il Metodo in prima pagina anche nel nostro catalogo. Per chi è interessato
e vuol saperne di più, in occasione di fiere e clinics, saremo in grado di fornire loro test audio e set-ups su cui fare le proprie prove.
6. Tutto questo per contribuire a quella che amiamo definire la “cultura del cavo” e fornire gli strumenti per distinguere, tra l’altro,
tra il concetto di prezzo e quello di qualità sonora: non sempre il prezzo elevato corrisponde ad una prestazione sonora equivalente!!
7. La regola a nostro avviso è quella di ascoltare il CAVO con le proprie orecchie ,attraverso il proprio strumento ed il proprio stile,
quindi come meglio indicato nel METODO Reference Laboratory:

Il METODO REFERENCE Lab in pochi passi


“Il MEDOTO REFERENCE Lab è una rigorosa comparazione audio, possibilmente cieca”

Valutazione di un cavo per strumento


Ascoltare il proprio strumento (chitarra o basso) in due steps:
1. attraverso un mixer con ascolto in cuffia.
2. poi attraverso il proprio amplificatore ( ho un amplificatore del quale già si conosce il “suono”) Tenendo a mente quell'accordo
e quel sound, ripetere la prova (medesima esecuzione) sostituendo il CAVO .

Ripetere la prova finché non si è certi di aver compreso le differenze tra i due cavi .

Una volta notata la differenza passate ad ascoltare il cavo tramite l’amplificatore

È FONDAMENTALE tenere a mente il suono di un cavo, dimenticandone il modello e la marca, concentrandosi solo sull'estensione e la
colorazione della risposta acustica... Solo così passando ad un altro CAVO verrà naturale SENTIRNE le differenze, e quindi valutare e
scegliere il cavo + adatto al proprio stile.

PERCHE' RICHIEDIAMO di svolgere la comparazione sia attraverso l'ascolto in Cuffia che con un Amplificatore?
Perché i due metodi di riproduzione rivelano aspetti diversi del segnale e permettono di valutare l’impatto di un cavo sia sulla linea che filtrato
da un altoparlante.

Valutazione di un cavo per microfonico


1. Set-up necessario:
- un mixer ed un sistema audio in configurazione mono ; il sistema di diffusori deve essere possibilmente in formato “sub, woofer, medi,
alti” per fornire una rappresentazione ottimale del segnale;
- almeno un paio di cavi di pari lunghezza, collagati ai master A e B, con le stesse regolazioni (EQ-flat, gain 0dB)
2. Utilizzare alternativamente un cavo e poi l’altro, sforzandosi di memorizzare le due risposte, andando in ascolto sia in cuffia
che in diretta dal sistema .

Dal 1992 ad oggi la Reference Laboratory è riuscita a progettare i suoi cavi tenendo conto di:
- campi di applicazioni diversi (Studio e Live)
- diversi stili musicali, per dare giusto rilievo alle diverse esigenze in termini di risposta in frequenza, come ad esempio nella musica ROCK.
- requisiti di fedeltà di riproduzione sia di strumenti elettrici che elettro-acustici
- caratteristiche necessarie per alimentare sia un microfono Dinamico che uno a Condensatore
- esigenze di minima perdita di potenza sulla linea e trasparenza del segnale, soprattutto per i sistemi audio "LINE ARRAY", siano essi
in Live che soggetti alle normative per le Installazioni Fisse
- requisiti dei cavi di potenza dedicati alle luci a scarica
- nuove tecnologie - Risultano sempre più utili cavi compositi, con segnali di controllo, audio, e video
- vincoli logistici - per affrontare situazioni molto impegnative o grandi diversità ambientali: siamo sempre pronti all’ascolto per aumentare
la soddisfazione dell’operatore e… del pubblico, sviluppando soluzioni chiavi in mano su misura.
- lo sviluppo continuo - la nostra tecnologia non può fare a meno del confronto con l'utilizzatore per sviluppare sempre nuove soluzioni
con in mente il miglioramento dello stato dell’arte delle catene audio, video, luci e di potenza, senza MAI penalizzare
le tecnologie a monte.

Bogotà Reference Labs considers travelling as the best
occasion to meet "End Users"&"Dealers". This is the
main step to decide what to do on planning a
suitable production and making customers
appreciating it. Then it is very much important
because it makes you able to understand how much
markets know about audio, video and light audio
CABLES technology. All respectful relationships
make people growing by sharing every opinion.
In the same way the human aspect of relationships is
very much determinative to satisfy each other
requirements and then to solve problems and
assume hypothesis as a real team. Unfortunately the
actual way of communicating is running the risk to
reduce the human contact to simply essential
ordered actions like "Please ,fill in the form" for
asking information and "push the bottom" to answer them. When this human kind of
communication is applied on a cable(a cable which someone still call "wire")it means we have the
possibility of breaking a banner just starting with a friendly talk to arrange something interesting
just giving suggestions and talking about technical features, power, loudspeakers, application
conditions like outdoor or indoor installations... Every year, during every shows, it always happen
that customers which could represent NEW contacts visit us to ask for catalogs, price lists,
samples and they always check Singapore
cables quality just by their flexibility.
Reference Lab does not have any to
do with this way of
working...because we are looking for
a dialogue with costumers to
understand and satisfy any
requirements. Our aim is to get some
important information from show-
visitors like the golden one which is:
"What kind of utilisation and
applications are our cables
destinated to in your company
projects?" As a matter of fact we
consider the word "application" as
the key-code which makes it possible
to share a growing process which
starts with the consumers
requirements and finishes at the company production projects.
Regarding to this Reference Lab is supposed to get a deeper knowledge of cable technology by
organizing seminaries which take place both at shows (Moscow,) organized by Mr. Wladimir
Moscow Sohno of Bayland Music, during
trainings (Sharjan,) organized by Mr.
Vishnu Manghnani in Studio Ayoub
Essa with his engineers: in Caracas
(Venezuela); in Bogotà (Columbia);
In Belo Horizonte (Brasil); in Manila
(Philippines); in Mumbai (India); in
Beijng (China); in Kuala Lumpur
(Malaysia) and as sponsor of Clinics
at the Umbria Jazz festival with the
collaboration of Mr. Carlo Pagnotta,
Giovanni Tommaso, Larry Monroe
and Angelo Tordini, whose purpose
is making users understand the
importance of such an accessory as
the cable because it can produce
very excellent and best sound

Berklee UJ 07 system team performance. We absolutely don't


want to strictly criticize this attitude, but we would
really like to suggest people to learn analysing
cable features as they do with many other audio
products. The reason is that cables are the more
important link between the complete audio
equipment and its results from a quality sound
point of view. Cables make the difference in
sound! If you think to everyone guitarist or vocalist
during their studio recording job, you'll surely
associate your idea to the quality results reached
by a good sound crew who works with the
support of excellent instrumental equipment like
consolle, recorder, processors, microphones. If in that session
you'd replace just the guitar and the microphone (vocal) cables and
you'd repeat the performance, you'll be listening to the sound of
this new track with many big quality differences in comparison with
the past one. We noticed that this improvement of the cable
concept is really welcome all over in the World and someone has
already expressed his satisfied and positive opinion about what
excellent results come from a new way of dedicating more time and
attention to the choice of a more suitable and low price cable.

Caracas
I would SINCERELY thank to people and companies which have
been trusting Reference Lab by investing on our brand, products
and human resources and also all of them who have been testing
our products to finally choose them for the qualified sound results
they produce. Reference would continue to invest on a developing
research which is the base of its way of working. Reference

Shields, insulating materials


and their properties

BRAIDED A braided shield consists of two groups of thin wires wowen respectively in clockwise and
counterclockwise fashion. The angle between two crossing strands is called the braid angle. Generally
offers the best high-frequency shielding performance and protection from radio-frequency interference
(RFI). This is due to the very high electrical conductivity of the braid, and to its low-inductance, self-
shorting configuration. Moreover, the braided construction offers the highest structural integrity, good
flexibility and flex life.

LAP Spiral-wrapped copper serve shields are more inductive than braided
shields, as they resemble a long coil of wire when extended. This can
compromise high-frequency shielding and is not recommended when
effective shielding above 100 kHz is required. Spiral shields are relatively
inexpensive and easy to terminate, while guaranteeing the highest flexibility.

FOIL SHIELDS Foil-shielded cable is very heavily used for permanent


installation work and for portable multipaire "snake" cables. The light weight
and slim profile makes foil very advantageous in applications involving pulling
cable into conduit and permanent installations. The thin mylar/aluminium foil
guarantees 100% coverage ratio and offers excellent RFI and EMI shielding
properties, but is not suited for portable applications due to its shorter flex life.
Cables with foil shields generally feature a drain copper wire used to
terminate the shield and give extra mechanical strength to the cable.

CONDUCTIVE PLASTICS Cables can feature conductive textile or plastic


shields for 100% coverage, with copper drain wires or very low-coverage
copper braid added for ease of termination and low DC resistance. While this
type of construction is very flexible, its shielding effectiveness suffers greatly as
frequency increases, offering very little effect above 10 kHz because of its low
conductivity. Conductive plastic is therefore used in conjunction with traditional
braided or spiral shields where flexibility should not compromise RFI and
handling noise immunity.

FILLERS, & HANDLING NOISE The audible effect(noise) that causes impact-
related "slapping" noise as the cable hits the stage or is stepped upon during
use is related to capacitance, specifically the change in capacitance that takes
place as the insulation or dielectric is deformed. This causes it to be have as a
crude piezoelectric transducer, a relative of an electret
condenser microphone. Handling noise is best addressed
by using soft, impact-absorbing insulation and jacket
materials in a very solid construction with ample cotton or
plastic fillers to insure that the cable retains its shape.
Tape wrapped around the outer shield greatly enhances
solidness and electrical parameters uniformity along the cable.

INSULATION MATERIALS depending on the specific application cables might


employ a combination of different insulation materials to meet both electrical (i.e.
capacitance) and mechanical (flexibility) demands. PVC, polyethylene (PE), and
polypropylene (PP) are typically used. Reference cables employ special mixtures
guaranteeing minimal shrinkage of the insulating sleeves during soldering operations.

The RSC Series of multichannel microphone cables offers a combination of thin profile, excellent flexibility, and
very high noise-rejection. RSC cables are intended for microphone and line level signals and suited for both
indoor and outdoor applications. Channel pairs are individually shielded and insulated with a special PVC jacket.
Each pair features a drain wire for a faster and easier connection. Three identification codes guarantee safe ‘last

solidness to the cable structure and contributes to have constant capacity figures along the cable even under
“heavy handling” situations.
Typical applications: studio installation, mobile units and outdoor broadcasting, sound reinforcement and live events.

The RSCS Series of multicore microphone cables offers a combination of thin profile, excellent flexibility, and very a high
noise-rejection. RSCS cables are intended for both microphone and line level signals and they can be used with
confidence both indoor and outdoor. Channel pairs are individually shielded and insulated with a special PVC jacket. A
drain wire is provided for each pair for fast and easy connections. TNT tape gives extra solidness to the cable structure
and contributes to have constant capacity figures along the cable, while preventing pair twisting over time. The overall
braided shield gives a superior noise immunity creating a second barrier to the external interference. Three identification
codes gives extra confidence in ‘last minute’ installations: pair colour, single conductor colour, and pair-jacket ID-number.
Typical applications: studio installation, mobile units and outdoor broadcasting, sound reinforcement and live events.

RMCQ series QUAD MICROPHONES cables


#3

DO USE THE QUAD


This four-conductor-shielded configuration can best be thought of as two twisted pairs twisted together. Using four
small conductors in place of two large ones allows the loop area of the cable to be further reduced and its rejection
of electromagnetic interference (EMI) shows a 20dB improvement. This makes star-quad cable very popular for
microphones and balanced lines used in critical applications such as television production, where huge amounts of
power cable for lighting and camera equipment surround the performers. Intermodulation distortion is also greatly
reduced. Besides that, using two 24 AWG conductors connected in parallel to replace each of the conductors of a
22 AWG twisted pair will result in the same DC resistance, but approximately half the series inductance. This will
result in improved high-frequency performance: better clarity without the need for equalization to boost the high end.
The significance of skin effect, and therefore the phase shift along the cable, is greatly reduced and this is a great
benefit when clarity and coherence of high-frequency complex waveforms is to be considered. While the improvement
may not be as dramatic as changing the microphone, the benefits from using quad cables cannot be neglected any
more when professional microphone connections are needed.
RMCQ01 is the result of an accurate design which, together with the usual high quality construction featured by
Reference cables (drain wire with braided high coverage screen, tight bundle and high flexibility), focused on the right
number of twists per unit length: with zero twists we would have a nice receiving antenna!
Key features
Higher noise immunity (>98%), from RFI to EMI to low frequency power-line hum. Improved sound quality.
Antistatic PVC material: no dust, nor shake noise or induced noise from electrostatic fields.
Typical applications: OB van, studio recording, broadcast and live show.

Designed for Recording Studio

Why choose RIC-S01 cables over other generic model ?


The consideration is very simple: If we have got a good quality of guitar and amplifier also we make attention on cable
– must be use the cable with same standard and for specific music style also -
Reference know that all cable are not the same and for best performance Reference designed specific cable for
specific music style and instrument .
Beside on rock music style the musician request hi quality sound for make “your sound” and the chain is complex
(digital effects, analog effects, foot pedal effects...) and the connection between all instruments must respect this
quality. RIC-S01 use a unique coaxial cable designed for pushing MID freq. highs without lose any part of audio
frequency as ROCK Music request.

Why choose RIC01A cables over other generic model ?


The consideration is very simple: If we have got a good quality of guitar and amplifier also we make attention on cable
– must be use the cable with same standard and for specific music style also -
Reference know that all cable are not the same and for best performance Reference designed specific cable for
specific music style and instrument.
Beside the musician of acoustic guitar is always in
search of the instrument that plays “its” sound.
For this often turns to music shops for check
different guitars and amplifiers before buy. But
forget to check the specific cable for acoustic
guitar. Why don’t we pay same attention on the
cable? Simply because not considering that the
cable is a part of chain and must have same
attention of rest of gear
Reference put attention on this matter and
designed a specific cable for ACOUSTIC
GUITAR-
This model RIC01A is not a standard cable but is
development in according with most important
guitar players.
Thanks also at the new technologies of material
this cable have a perfect matching impedance

Speaker cable/AC Power cable


Current Carrying Capacity of Copper Conductors
Current carrying capacity is defined as the amperage a conductor can carry before melting either the
conductor or the insulation. Heat, caused by an electrical current flowing through a conductor, will determine
the amount of current a wire will handle. Theoretically, the amount of current that can be passed through a
single bare copper wire can be increased until the heat generated reaches the melting temperature of the
copper. There are many factors which will limit the amount of current that can be passed through a wire.
These major determining factors are:
Conductor Size: The larger the circular mil area, the greater the current capacity.
Insulation: The amount of heat generated should never exceed the maximum temperature rating,
of the insulation material.
Ambient Temperature: The higher the ambient temperature, the less heat required to reach the maximum
temperature rating of the insulation.
Conductor Number: Heat dissipation is lessened as the number of individually insulated conductors, bundled
together, is increased.
Installation Conditions: Restricting the heat dissipation by installing the conductors in conduit, duct, trays or
raceways lessens the current carrying capacity. The chart shows the current required to raise the temperatures
of 2 and 3 insulated conductor in free air (30°C ambient) to the limits of various insulation types. The following
table gives a derating factor to be used when the conductors are bundled. These charts should only be used
as a guide when attempting to establish current ratings on conductor and cable and not for design (there are
many other factor that influence the result-please ask a professional people) . Of course the table is for AC
current and not for Musical signals (like speaker dirver) Musical signal is not continuous and normally the
average is near 60%

Jazz Festival
Reprint whit the permission of Pro Sound News November 2000”

Since 1966, the Montreux Jazz Festival


has been setting the standard as being possibly
the most prestigious European jazz event.
This year was no exception with a star-
studded line-up of more than 50 artists
performing at one of the ten festival
venues, with renowned acts such as Joe
Satriana, Al Jarreau, Lou Reed, Macy
Gray and Suzanne Vega, over a quarter
of a million visitors were attracted to
Montreux during the 16 day event.
Once again, Meyer Sound provided a
PI
wide range of it's self powered speakers
08 N
RPLC as in previous years.
Indeed, from the Miles Davis Hall and [Mark Johnson]
Stravinski Auditorium to the boats and the Jazz Cafe, more than 350
loudspeaker systems were integrated into festival venues.
The new QuickFly rigging system was incorporated into arrays to enable
quicker load-in / load-out times.
AC/LINE cables RPLC 01 NPI 3x1,5 mm + 2xAWG 22 Ø 11,0 mm

The Festival also marked the debut for the LD-2 Line Driver, a product
specifically designed for integrating different types of Meyer Sound
self-powered loudspeakers into an optimised full range system.
As a line driver, the LD-2 can connect to cable runs of up to around
300 metres without any instability or distortion.
[Mark Johnson] After a series of rigourous tests, Meyer Sound chose
Reference Laboratory cables [Mark Johnson] to use at this years'
edition of the Montreux Festival. Specifically, the RPLC 01 and 03
cables were chosen. Meyer's Production Manager [Mark Johnson] for
the event, MarkJohnson commented "We
chose the RPLC 03 in the [Mark Johnson]
Stravinski and Miles Davis systems so we
could [Mark Johnson] utilize our RMS
(Remote Monitoring System).
As the RPLC 03 has an extra signal
pair, it allowed us to have the
capability for power, signal and
data. [Mark Johnson] The Main
RPLC

and Monitor systems for both


these venues [Mark Johnson]
03 NP

were set up so all the speakers


I

were RMS capable allowing


us to closely monitor the
[Mark Johnson] performance
and well being of these systems
on laptop computers at both FOH
and monitor positions. When
coupled with VEAM connectors,
reconfiguring the monitor systems
for different acts was both a quick
and easy process. "The systems
which did not use the RMS utilised
1 NPI the RPLC 01 cables as this does
C0
RPL not carry an extra signal pair. [Mark
Johnson] In all cases, using the
Reference cables helped speed
up the installation process.

LIGHT-nex cables SUPER FLEXIBLE and LSZH series


#9

Description: Any LIGHT-nex cable is highly flexible and nice to handle; the special compound studied for the outer jacket is
also opaque and velvety. These cables are ideal for both heavy duty daily usage or contractor applications for at least
reasons.

FLAME RETARDANT MATERIALS (NPI)


All models are CEI 20-22 II compliant (flame retardant property), and feature materials with minimal toxic gas emissions – a
must for public spaces installations.

GOOD HANDLING
Thanks to the special compound used for the outer jacket these cables are extremely flexible and yet resistant to rubbing
and scraping; the perfect solution for any task that involve frequent handling or incidental stamping (i.e. LIVE). The material
is also highly resistant to mineral oils, and suited to work within a wide temperature range (–30°C a +80°C).

LOW SMOKE ZERO HALOGEN - TINNED COPPER CABLES


Single core cables with flexible tinned copper conductor, under double insulation: insulated with special M1
thermoplastic compound, under an external special M1 thermoplastic sheat (classified as M1 in accordance with
Italian CEI 20-11). Flame and fire retardant cable, with very low smoke and fume emission and without halogenidric
gas emission; therefore those cables are recommended for installations which need maximum safety in case of fire:
emergency lights, aeration systems, emergency telephone systems and emergency audio/voice evacuation systems.
