The Problem: Is Your Video Signal Always Breaking Up?
You know the feeling. You set up a camera, a projector, or an industrial monitor. You press play. But the screen is not clear. You see “ghosts” of images. The colors look faded. Or maybe the screen goes black for a second and then comes back. This is frustrating. It wastes your time. It costs you money because you have to fix it again.Why does this happen? It is usually not the screen. It is not the camera. It is the cable. Cheap cables are like thin straws. They cannot carry enough data. They have no protection. Electric noise from motors, lights, or other wires gets inside. This noise mixes with your video signal. It ruins the picture. In a factory or outside, this problem is worse. There is a lot of electric noise there. You need a cable that is strong. You need a cable that protects the signal like a shield. You need a cable built for real work, not just for a home office.
The Solution: A Cable That Guards Your Signal
We have the answer. Our 8.7mm 5-core shielded cable is not a normal wire. It is a high-performance tool. It uses a special Japanese design standard. We call it the “5-channel video signal cable.” It is made for high-resolution VGA signals. But it works for RGB, RGBHV, and other analog video types too.The most important part is the shielding. Most cheap cables have one big shield for all wires. That is bad. If one wire makes noise, it hurts the others. Our cable is different. It has independent shielding for every single core. Imagine five small rooms instead of one big hall. Each signal lives in its own room. Noise cannot move from one room to another. This stops “crosstalk.” It keeps your picture sharp. It stops the ghosting. It makes sure the red color stays red and does not bleed into the blue.
What is Inside the Cable? (Technical Breakdown)
Let’s look under the skin of this cable. We use high-quality materials to make sure it lasts a long time.
The Conductor Core
We do not use cheap iron or aluminum. We use tinned copper. Why tinned? Because copper is the best metal for carrying electricity. Tin makes it strong against rust. If water touches the wire, it does not corrode. The size is 0.15 sq mm for each core. We have 5 cores inside. This size is perfect. It is thick enough to carry the signal far away. But it is still soft enough to bend easily.
- Core Count: 5 Cores (Red, Green, Blue, Horizontal Sync, Vertical Sync)
- Material: Tinned Copper (99.9% purity)
- Cross-section: 0.15 sq mm
The Shielding Layers
This is the “armor” of the cable. We use two layers of protection.
- Layer 1: Aluminum Mylar Foil. This wraps around each small core individually. It blocks high-frequency noise.
- Layer 2: Tinned Copper Braid. This wraps around the whole group of cores. It blocks low-frequency noise and physical impact.
- Coverage: The braid covers more than 85% of the surface. This is much better than cheap cables that only cover 60%.
The Jacket (Outer Skin)
The outside of the cable is tough. We use PVC or PUR material. It depends on what you need.
- PVC: Good for indoor use. It is flexible and fire-retardant.
- PUR: Better for outdoor or industrial use. It resists oil, acid, and UV sunlight. It does not crack when you drag it over concrete.
- Diameter: 8.7mm. This is thick. It means the wire is strong and hard to cut by accident.

Where Can You Use This Cable?
This cable is not just for one thing. It is a “hybrid” cable. It is useful in many places.
Industrial Automation
Factories are full of machines. Motors and welders make a lot of electric noise. If you use a normal VGA cable to connect a PLC or a CNC machine to a monitor, the screen will shake. Our cable stops this. The independent shielding keeps the control signals clean. The machine runs smoothly. You do not get errors.
Security and CCTV
Security cameras often use VGA or similar analog signals for long distances. You might run a cable 50 meters or 100 meters. Over that distance, a weak signal fades. Our 0.15 sq mm copper core pushes the signal further. You get a clear image in the control room. You can see faces and license plates clearly.
Medical and Precision Equipment
Hospitals have sensitive machines. They cannot have electric noise interfering with the video display. Our cable meets high safety standards. It is reliable. Doctors and technicians can trust the image on the screen.
Outdoor and Stage Equipment
If you are setting up a big screen for an event outside, you need tough cables. Our PUR jacket resists sunlight and rain. You can drag it on the ground. It will not break. It is also great for stage lighting rigs where there are many power cables nearby.
Why Choose Our “Japanese Imported” Quality?
You might see “Japanese standard” or “Hitachi style” in our title. What does that mean? It does not mean the wire was made in Japan yesterday. It means we use the manufacturing philosophy of Japanese industry.
- Precision: The copper is drawn to an exact size. No thick spots, no thin spots.
- Consistency: Every meter of the cable is the same. You do not get good wire for 10 meters and bad wire for the next 10 meters.
- Purity: We use high-grade copper. Impurities cause resistance. Resistance causes heat. Heat breaks cables. Our wire stays cool.
- Durability: We test the jacket for aging. It does not become brittle after one year in the sun.
How to Install and Handle
You do not need to be an expert to use this cable. But here are some tips to make it last longer.
- Do not bend too sharp: The minimum bend radius is about 9cm. If you bend it into a tight circle, you hurt the internal shield.
- Use the right connectors: Use VGA (DB15) connectors with metal shells. Screw the shell to the cable jacket. This connects the shield to the ground. It makes the shielding work better.
- Keep it dry: Even though it is shielded, water in the connector is bad. Use waterproof connectors for outside use.
- Strain Relief: When you plug it into a computer or machine, make sure the cable does not hang heavy. Use zip ties to hold the weight.
Packaging and Shipping
We know you are a business. You need the goods on time.
- Packaging: We use strong corrugated cartons. Inside, the cable is on a plastic spool or a wooden drum. This stops the cable from getting tangled.
- Marking: The cable has print on it every meter. It says the brand, the type, and the size. This helps you check what you bought.
- Shipping: We can ship by sea (LCL or FCL) or by air. For samples, we use DHL or FedEx. It usually takes 3 to 7 days to reach you.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Can I use this for audio too?A: No, this is for video signals. Audio needs a different cable (like twisted pair). Do not use this for speakers.Q: What is the maximum length?A: For VGA (1080p), we recommend up to 30 meters for the best quality. For lower resolutions (1024×768), you can go up to 50 or 60 meters. If you need longer, you need a signal booster (amplifier).Q: Is the copper real?A: Yes. We use tinned copper. If you cut it, you will see the shiny metal inside. We can send you a sample to test in a lab.Q: Can you make the cable black or grey?A: Yes. The standard color is black. We can make it grey, white, or blue if you order a large quantity (MOQ applies).Q: What is the difference between “Foil” and “Braid”?A: Foil blocks high-frequency noise (like radio waves). Braid blocks low-frequency noise (like motor hum) and physical force. We use both for the best protection.
