Digital Data Cable Is the Critical Link - Don't Accept Anything Less!

Since the introduction of USITT DMX512 (1990) as the industry wide standard lighting control protocol, the versatility and complexity of control needs has increased radically. It is now easily possible to rely on one lighting console to control an entire lighting system comprising of dimmers, colour changers, moving lights and strobes.

It is equally possible that one single length of data cable is the critical link for the whole system, so doesn't it make sense to ensure that you are using the best data cable available?

The sleeving of all Tourflex Datasafe cables contains a propriety compound that gives the cable a unique flame-retardant quality. This compound also toughens the jacket giving the cable better resistance to damage caused in everyday use. Tourflex Datasafe cables are manufactured and tested to exacting specifications to ensure high performance and consistency.

All Tourflex Datasafe cables are factory-tested for Hi-Pot, Continuity, Impedance and Capacitance ensuring that you won't find a better data cable to be the critical link for your show. Don't accept anything less!
