What’s so special about Trucable™ ? How does it compare with other available cables ?

Trucable™ is manufactured from fibre-optic raw material manufactured by Schott, Germany so you can be sure that minimum light is lost along its length; the cable is re-enforced and so can withstand minor knocks and the very large number of connector variations available mean that you can use the same cable in several different situations just be changing the connectors at both ends, the work of less than a minute per connector.

Like all good fibre-optic cables, the Trucable™ can be steam autoclaved for 3-4 minutes at a maximum temperature of 134 Centigrade (270 F). You can use with all types of light sources, both halogen and xenon up to 300 Watt.
