RANGE EXTENDING ACTIVE OPTICAL HDMI

NEW CANFORD ACTIVE OPTICAL CABLES - HDMI 2.0 - Locking 38-9320 These locking, active, optical, HDMI 2.0 cables are intended for applications where longer cable-run lengths than those obtainable with standard copper HDMI cables are required. They are also useful where the cable needs to pass through environments with high electrical interference. They offer a considerably more elegant and cost-effective solution for long cable runs than Cat5E cable with converter box systems. Applications include professional AV systems interconnection, indoor and outdoor digital signage and kiosks, plus home theatre systems in larger properties.

All cables are supplied with locking connectors which are designed to help secure them in place to prevent disconnection, allowing for a more robust installation versus non-locking HDMI cables.

These cables are CPR certified Cca, s1, d0 and are available in a range of lengths from 10 to 100 metres. They handle 18Gbps and 4K at 60Hz, with 48-bit colour-depth and 3D capabilities.

Audio can be transmitted at 8-channel PCM, Dolby Digital True HD, or DTS-HD Master Audio.

There are two standard versions of these cables, one terminated with full size locking type A HDMI connectors on both ends and the other terminated with locking micro HDMI type D connectors supplied with adapters to fit full-size, locking type A connectors. Included with the adapter variants are a USB to DC power cable and a cable pulling tool Intended to aid fixed installation; the micro HDMI connectors reduce the likelihood of snagging as the cable is pulled through conduit, fed through voids or behind plaster board. Other benefits may include applications where cables must pass through congested and/or small apertures, such as internally wired brackets and mounts.

Replacement adapters are available if required; 38-9332 (Display) and 38-9333 (Source).

NEW CANFORD ACTIVE OPTICAL CABLES - HDMI 2.0 - Armoured - Locking These locking, active, optical, HDMI 2.0 cables are intended for applications where longer cable-run lengths than those obtainable with standard copper HDMI cables are required. They are also useful where the cable needs to pass through environments with high electrical interference. They offer a considerably more elegant and cost-effective solution for long cable runs than Cat5E cable with converter box systems.

CANFORD CABLES

DATA & ETHERNET CANFORD CAT5E-F-J CATEGORY 5E DATA CABLE Stranded conductor, screened Multi-circuit deployable Cat5E cables, for both studio and touring/OB applications, based on Canford’s CAT5E-F screened flexible cable.

Heavy duty versions (formerly called ‘touring’) use the standard CAT5E-F 6.2mm diameter flexible cable, with colour coded and numbered individual jackets. The overall jacket has a tough layer of PUR (polyurethane) for abrasion resistance. Canford uses PUR on many cable designs to provide excellent wearing characteristics in the harsher environment of outside broadcast and touring applications

31-884

31-888

Flexible versions (formerly called ‘studio’) have a design optimised to give the best possible flexibility, and uses the CAT5E-F-M 5.8mm diameter cable, with colour coded and numbered individual jackets. The overall jacket is soft PVC for optimum flexibility.

31-894

CANFORD CAT5E-F CATEGORY 5E DATA CABLE Stranded conductor, screened - Deployable Increasing use of network and data cables between audio and video devices on location calls for a Category 5E cable that is designed specifically for deployable use. Basic Category 5E F/UTP is a relatively inflexible installation cable, and even the slightly more flexible patchcord type still has very poor handling characteristics. This Category 5E cable has been designed specifically for the professional audio and video user, and is intended to handle like a typical microphone cable.

31-850

CANFORD CAT5E-F-R CAT 5E DATA CABLE Stranded conductor, screened - Deployable, Ruggedised This special version of Canford’s CAT5E-F flexible Cat5E cable has a polyurethane outer jacket providing greater abrasion resistance (but slightly less flexibility) than the PVC on the standard design. Otherwise it is a similar F/UTP construction.

It is suitable for use with both standard RJ45 connectors (round entry version), the Neutrik Ethercon and most other ruggedised RJ45 designs, or any other connector with a suitably sized entry gland. The cable is also suitable for DMX512 applications. The greater heat tolerance of polyurethane may be useful.

31-890

CANFORD CAT5E-F-M CATEGORY 5E DATA CABLE Stranded conductor - Miniature, Flexible A reduced size version of Canford CAT5E-F, designed specifically for installations where a very flexible screened Category 5E cable is required.

CANFORD CABLES

AUDIO CABLES CANFORD FST - Foil Screened Stranded Conductor Twin Cable Standard, Low Fire Hazard and Flexible type is designed to be suitable for both digital and analogue audio signals, with an impedance of 100 ohms which has been proven to be suitable for AES/EBU digital audio as well as analogue microphone and line level signals. Wire insulation is polypropylene, which shrinks back minimally during soldering (considerably less than PVC or polyethylene).

Standard has an overall PVC jacket is bonded to the screen tape on application so that one stripping action removes jacket and screen, leaving the signal wires and earth wire free for further processing. It is not necessary to have to unwind tape screen after jacket stripping nor is it necessary to become involved in the unravelling of braided copper screens.

FST-LFH Low Fire Hazard is technically identical to standard FST, except that the PVC jacket is replaced by an LFH material. Wiring specifications for many public buildings now call for LFH cables to be used in certain areas, notably in corridors etc. Under combustion circumstances, LFH cables have a significantly reduced smoke emission, and the gaseous products contain no toxic halogens.

FST-F Flexible is constructed in a similar way to the easy-strip FST, but has changes to improve the flexibility. The insulation has a slightly reduced wall thickness, and a significantly longer lay length of the twist than FST, giving a single, long length strip. The overall jacket is a soft PVC with semi-matt finish, and overall diameter is slightly less the FST.

Wire insulation is polypropylene which shrinks back minimally during soldering (considerably less than PVC or polyethylene). The overall jacket is bonded to the screen tape so that one stripping action removes jacket and screen, leaving the signal wires and earth wire free for further processing.

CANFORD FST-M - Foil Screened Stranded Conductor Twin Cable - Miniature

31-052

31-240

This D’n’A series (Digital and Analogue) cable is designed to be suitable for both digital and analogue audio signals, with an impedance of 100 ohms which has been proven to be suitable for AES/EBU digital audio as well as analogue microphone and line level signals. Wire insulation is polypropylene, which shrinks back minimally during soldering (considerably less than PVC or polyethylene). It is a smaller version of the classic Canford FST, for use where space is at a premium.

CANFORD HST - Helical Screened Stranded Conductor Twin Cable A high performance range of general purpose extra-flexible twisted twin conductor, helical (“lap”) screened cables, suitable for both microphone and general purpose uses. The cable construction design is the result of extensive research by Canford Audio, and the University of Durham Engineering Department.
