The MAINSSTREAM BS HYBRID (halogen free)True transmission technology * Hybrid design * Halogeen free

Our 12.5 mm. special quality heavy power cable The MAINSSTREAM BSHYBRID is the smaller diameter version of our 15 mm. The MAINSSTREAM HYBRID.

Despite its smaller diameter, The MAINSSTREAM BS HYBRID features all essential qualities as found in its bigger sister;
All conductors are of the same heavy gauge as in The MAINSSTREAM HYBRID. The MAINSSTREAM BS HYBRID is likewise equipped with a heavy braided screen. Omission of the extra mechanically protective sub-jacket beneath the screen makes this cable thinner.

The MAINSSTREAM BS HYBRID has been specially designed bearing uncompromised mains power distribution to high-end audio, video and professional equipment in mind and is able to deliver a virtually unlimited stream of low noise mains power.

The MAINSSTREAM BS HYBRID features:

  • A unique embedded powerline noise suppression filter.
  • A very high continuous current capacity and a maximum transparency with regards to instantaneously drawn current surges.
  • Strong shielding against in and outwards radiation of electromagnetic and radio frequency interference.
  • Heavy conductors and shield of the high quality also found in our loudspeaker cables.
  • Extreme ruggedness and therefore a very long lifespan.

An important feature of The MAINSSTREAM BS HYBRID are its carefully designed powerline noise suppression properties:

  • First of all The MAINSSTREAM BS HYBRID’s special Hybrid conductor structure and configuration have been designed to work as an embedded powerline filter.
    This unique built-in filter effectively suppresses high frequency powerline noise (*1) without imposing any current delivery limitations: Unlike conventional powerline filters, The MAINSSTREAM BS HYBRID does not employ any filtering components in series with its AC current path; Series impedance (reactance) is absent and the cable therefore does not exhibit any current limiting, resonance or sluggish response to current demand effects. A true unlimited stream of clean mains power indeed!

 

 *1: The MAINSSTREAM BS HYBRID’s special embedded filter structure suppresses both existing types of powerline contamination, i.e.: differential mode (across the lines) as well as common mode (simultaneous on both lines) noise components.

 

  • Secondly, the cable is equipped with a high quality shield. This heavy shield has two important functions:
    1. It keeps powerline noise from radiating outwards onto your close by equipment and interconnects.
    2. It keeps external electromagnetic and radio frequency interference from entering the AC line.
  • Third, the cable’s central yellow-green coloured ground lead features a broadband low impedance, which allows for perfect drainage of the connected equipment’s ground current noise and thus further helps to keep the noise floor down.

In transporting AC power as well as cleaning and protecting it from high frequency noise, The MAINSSTREAM BS HYBRID is a unique multifunctional product. The MAINSSTREAM BS HYBRID can be looked upon as a gatekeeper, physically separating the noise contaminated mains from your equipment’s interconnect and power wiring without imposing any current delivery limitations.

 Note: To ensure proper noise suppression behaviour, The MAINSSTREAM BS HYBRID is not sold in lengths below 1.5 meter.

The MAINSSTREAM BS HYBRID has been equipped with heavy gauge high purity dense silver coated high purity oxygen free stranded copper conductors (quite a mouth full). The effective cross-section area of The MAINSSTREAM BS HYBRID’s blue Neutral and brown Lead/Hot current leads (*2) each is 1.69 mm² (~ AWG 15), yielding a very low 1.0 Ohm/100 m. series resistance.
The cable’s loop current series resistance is therefore a very low 0.02 Ohm per meter run. The combined contact resistance of attached common mains and IEC plugs often is higher; Therefore the use of high quality plugs, outlets, power entries and further mains wiring is important.

The MAINSSTREAM BS HYBRID’s 1.69 mm² current leads (*2), as per international standard: IEC Publication 335-1, allow a continuous operating current in excess of 16 Amperes, which at 230 V AC mains is equivalent to a continuous power capacity of 3.7 kilowatt.

 *2: The MAINSSTREAM BS HYBRID contains three blue Neutral and three brown Lead/Hot conductors which, when paralleled per three, each constitute a 1.69 mm² current lead.

With its gold colored heavy HULLIFLEX ® 4 jacket and heavy shield beneath, The MAINSSTREAM BS HYBRID is extremely rugged. The MAINSSTREAM BS HYBRID’s high purity dense silver coated stranded shield and inner conductors, as well as its throughout applied HULLIFLEX ® 4 polymer insulation material furthermore provide an optimal protection against chemical (corrosive) attack from the outside world and ensure a very long lifespan.

With all features on board for an uncompromised and long lasting performance, The MAINSSTREAM BS HYBRID is the ultimate choice for the critical audiophile and professional.
