HIGH-SPEED data cables for applications that require an optimal transfer rate and product stability, such as those used in speciality data communication and telecommunications technology, can be produced using Rosendahl’s Core Insulation Line. The constant expansion of the worldwide telecommunications network is one of the essential factors for the rising demand of all kinds of data cables, and technologies in this field are developing rapidly. A few years ago, transfer rates of a few MHz were common; now, higher GHz rates are required. The transfer rates of 5G are not only of use for surfing the Internet or for making telephone calls. In communications between machines, such as in the medical field, the speed of data transfer has a more important role. Demand for the cables required for these applications is growing steadily. Nearly every area of a building can be controlled from anywhere by using modern sensors, whether lighting, heating or security cameras. To consume as little space as possible, cables must be highly sensitive while being very small. The Core Insulation Line from Rosendahl was developed and has been constantly improved for producing these special products. Gas plays a significant role in the production of high-speed data cables. Too high or too low gas amounts can have consequences for the process stability and for the quality of the product. In combination with Rosendahl’s RIO line control system and the newly developed gas systems, production processes can be made more effective: scrap and defective products can be reduced; the reproducibility of products can be increased; and the flexibility of lines can be improved.
