I have successfully used a next-generation dielectric compound for coaxial cable that utilizes a polyolefin dielectric material with a dielectric constant comparable to Teflon but is entirely PFAS-free. In addition this compound has the lowest specific gravity of any solid thermoplastic polymer.
This innovation is particularly beneficial in deep-water environments. In these challenging applications, traditional foam or cellular dielectrics often fall short due to pressure limitations. My focus was on identifying a material with the absolute lowest possible dielectric constant. This is crucial for minimizing cable diameter while ensuring we meet the required characteristic impedance and capacitance for the reliable transmission of High-Definition Video Signals, even at full ocean depth.
Designed with precision coaxial components for SD/HD video and ideal for depths up to 7KM, our robust Xtreme-Marine® cable is designed with our full water-blocked technology, an improved strength member and the Subsea industry-preferred choice of Winchester’s “Xtreme-Grade” Polyurethane jackets.
