PD-Connex RX13 - Professional Speaker Cable for 100V Line
The PD-Connex RX13 is a high-quality speaker cable, specifically designed to meet the demands of professional audio installations in 100V line systems. Presented on a convenient 305-meter reel, this cable is the ideal solution for large-scale projects such as shopping centers, educational institutions, offices, and industrial buildings, where long cable runs are required without compromising audio signal integrity.
Built with two high-conductivity copper cores, the RX13 guarantees clear and reliable sound transmission. Its robust yet flexible black outer casing not only provides excellent mechanical protection against wear but also facilitates installation in cable trays, suspended ceilings, or walls. Clear polarity markings on the internal conductors simplify the connection process, ensuring a quick, efficient, and error-free installation.
Main Features
-
100V Line Design: Optimized for Public Address (PA) and background music systems operating at 100V, minimizing power loss over long distances and allowing the connection of multiple speakers in parallel.
-
Copper Conductors: Each of the two conductors has a cross-section of 1.5 mm², composed of 45 strands of 0.2 mm² each. This multi-strand construction not only improves conductivity but also provides great flexibility to the cable, facilitating its handling and installation in any type of layout.
-
Durable Cover: The black PVC outer cover is tough and designed to withstand the usual conditions of a fixed installation, effectively protecting the internal conductors.
-
Professional Format: Supplied on a 305-meter reel, an industry standard length that offers excellent cost-effectiveness for installers, reducing material waste and the need for splicing.
-
Simple Identification: The internal conductors feature red and black color insulation for quick and unambiguous polarity identification, which is crucial for proper audio performance and to prevent damage to equipment.
Benefits for the Installer
The PD-Connex RX13 cable is designed to make the audio professional's job easier and more efficient. Its reliability ensures lossless and interference-free signal transmission, resulting in clear and consistent audio quality throughout the installation. The cable's flexibility and clear color coding significantly reduce installation time and the possibility of connection errors. Its durability guarantees a long-term solution that will not require maintenance or premature replacement.
Use Cases
This cable is the perfect choice for a wide variety of commercial and public audio installations, including:
- Public address and announcement systems in schools, hospitals, train stations and airports.
- Ambient music installations in restaurants, hotels, supermarkets and shops.
- Distributed sound systems in offices, warehouses and convention centers.
- Audio equipment in places of worship and sports facilities.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use this cable for a home hi-fi system (4 or 8 ohms)?
Not recommended. This cable is specifically designed and optimized for 100V line systems. For low-impedance home systems, conventional speaker cables with characteristics suitable for that application should be used.
What is the main difference between a 100V cable and a standard cable?
The main difference lies in their construction to handle higher voltages. 100V systems transmit the audio signal at a high voltage and low current to minimize energy loss over very long runs, which is crucial in large venues. Standard speaker cables operate at low voltage and high current.
Is this cable suitable for outdoor installations?
The PD-Connex RX13 cable is designed primarily for indoor installations. Its PVC jacket offers good protection, but it is not treated to withstand prolonged exposure to UV rays or the elements. For outdoor use, the use of a suitable protective conduit is recommended.
What does a maximum current of 15A mean?
This indicates the maximum current the cable can safely handle according to the manufacturer's specifications. On a 100V line, this translates to the ability to handle systems with up to 1500 watts of total power.
Project description
Two-core speaker cable for 100V line audio installations, supplied on a 305-meter reel. Each conductor has a cross-section of 1.5mm² (45x0.2mm structure) and is made of copper.
