AUDUSA -> EUPEN

Almost everyone nowadays talks about EMC (Electro Magnetic Compatibility) related problems and the European regulatory issues concerning EMC

Very few, however, succeed in offering realistic and easily applicable solutions. Thanks to many decades of experience with cable manufacturing, combined with a thorough knowledge in the field of EMC, AUDUSA-EUPEN can offer you a clear solution for some of your EMC problems.

Ferrite technology, a high quality ferrite powder is mixed with a polymer material and is called EMC/COM. This special compound can be extruded over copper conductors. The ferrite compound is a non conducting material but it has a very interesting behaviour. As a ferromagnetic material, it will go through hysteresis loops when ever it is under the influence of an alternating magnetic field. Consequently magnetizing and demagnetizing the material will cause considerable losses of high frequency energy. This energy is absorbed in the ferrite grains and converted to heat. This effect is more or less proportional to the field frequency. By coating the conductors with a thin layer of ferrite compound, high frequency will be strongly attenuated, because their energy is absorbed by the ferrite powder.

The Power cords and interconnects are particularly effective when used with digital products, amplififiers, power, integrated and pre, CDP's DAC's, Transports and DVD's. When used on Sky and Cable receivers, TV's be it CRT, Plasma, LCd/TFT, results are easy to see.

Further explanation of extruded Ferrite technology

FERRITE TECHNOLOGY
The basis of this technology is a high quality ferrite powder.
KABELWERK EUPEN developed a special compound: a polymer material mixed with a considerable quantity of homogeneously fine ferrite powder. This compound is called EMC/COM and it can be extruded around copper conductors.

The ferrite itself is a non-conducting material, but it has a very interesting magnetic behavior. As a ferromagnetic material, it will go through hysteresis loops whenever it is under influence of an alternating magnetic field. Consecutively magnetizing and demagnetizing the material will cause considerable losses of high frequency energy. This energy is absorbed in the ferrite grains and converted into heat. This effect is more or less proportional to the field frequency

By coating conductors with a thin layer of ferrite compound, high frequencies will be strongly attenuated, because their energy will be absorbed by the ferrite powder. This applies to high frequency disturbances that are propagating on the conductor and which we don't want to disturb the environment, as well as to surrounding interferences, which we want to prevent from disturbing the signals on our cable.

The AUDUSA - Eupen GNLM cables has an additional drain wire incorporated into the cable. The drain wire(active) is in contact with the foil shield
Moreover, the ferrite layer's continuous spreading over the whole cable length makes sure that there will be no sudden changes in characteristic impedance along the cable. Otherwise, such discontinuities might cause high frequency signals to be reflected at those spots and to be sent back to the mains or to other devices.
At last, it is important to emphasize that a ferrite coated conductor will much less divert disturbances to the earth; this is an interesting feature, because disturbances that "disappear" to earth are not really gone. They will re-emerge elsewhere and cause problems.
