PE insulation refers to polyethylene as an insulating material, used in our cables for musical instruments and microphones. We use it due to its ability to resist electrical interference and degradation caused by exposure to moisture, environmental elements, and chemical agents.
Polyethylene is a tough, highly durable, and thermoplastic material that is easy to process and particularly useful in audio applications, where high sound quality and reliable signal transmission are required. It protects the electrical signal from noise, interference, and helps maintain clear and accurate audio signal transmission. Additionally, polyethylene is a low dielectric constant material, meaning it does not absorb much electrical energy, which also helps maintain higher-quality audio signal.
Musical instrument and microphone cables require proper insulation to minimize electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI). EMI and RFI can cause unwanted noise and distortion in the audio signal, which can negatively affect sound quality.
That’s why at SOLCOR, we use PE insulation that provides an effective barrier against EMI and RFI. Additionally, polyethylene is also fire-resistant and abrasion-resistant, making it ideal for use in audio applications where cables may be exposed to extreme temperatures and physical wear.
There are different types of PE insulation, such as solid PE, cellular PE, and foamed PE. Each has different electrical and mechanical properties and is used according to the specific needs of the application.
In summary, the PE insulation of SOLCOR cables is an effective insulation material, used in professional-quality musical instrument and microphone cables.
