Air is a near perfect dielectric medium allowing a signal to propagate through it at approximately the speed of light. However, an air dielectric is impractical for use as a cable insulation as it provides no structural integrity. Thus, manufacturers have to resort to using materials with higher dielectric constants (lower propagation velocity) to meet physical requirements.

NEWcel® is the perfect solution. Typical coaxial, triaxial, and twinaxial cables are manufactured using low dielectric constant (2.0 – 2.6) materials that possess inherently better electrical properties than standard insulation material such as PVC. Using highly controlled extrusion processes, these materials are foamed yielding a dielectric medium with a high air concentration. The result of this process is a significantly reduced dielectric constant (1.45 – 1.8) that approaches the nearly ideal properties of air without sacrificing structural integrity. This results in a significant capacitance reduction while providing the customer with the choice of reduced diameter/same attenuation or same diameter/reduced attenuation.
