We have released the Thunderbolt 3 compatible USB 4 cable "SCI-04," which aims to be at the cutting edge of professional digital recording environments. The versatility of USB4 means it can be used for a variety of purposes beyond music production. With the recent trend toward faster communication speeds and greater compatibility with the USB standard, the number of devices using Thunderbolt connections and USB 2.0 or higher continues to increase in professional recording studios. Furthermore, the shift to USB Type-C in music and video production environments is accelerating, and it is not uncommon to see users using docking stations or MacBook Pros as the core of their systems. Based on the basic concepts of data transfer, we also applied analog approaches such as noise suppression and excellent electrical characteristics. This has resulted in the USB4 cable "SCI-04" providing reliable noise protection and a high-quality cable design. Oyaide Electric's DJ brand "d+" also sells a wide range of high-quality USB cables worldwide. The reliability of d+ USB cables, which have shipped more than 300,000 units in total, is of course reflected in the high quality of the "SCI-04." The new SCI-04 not only delivers reliable performance in professional environments, but also offers a wide range of applications, including DisplayPort Alt Mode for gaming and video production, and USB Power Delivery for fast charging of smartphones and laptops, allowing you to experience even more advanced performance. Oyaide Electric has been listening carefully to user feedback, and this is the next-generation USB4 cable that they have finally released. ● The biggest feature of SCI-04: A high-quality USB4 cable that uses thick silver-plated high-purity copper wire, triple shielding, a high-quality Type-C connector, and a dedicated TPE sheath.・USB4 is not only compatible with Thunderbolt 3, but also backward compatible with USB 2.0 to USB 3.2. - Supports cascade connection between Thunderbolt 3 devices. - Approximately 25% less conducted noise than standard USB4 cables, providing superior noise resistance and durability for reliable performance. - The matte black cable color is accented with gold anodized for a more luxurious feel and improved visibility. Supports transfer speeds of up to 40Gbps (0.7m). Improved noise resistance has enabled a maximum transfer distance of 2.5m. (Maximum 20Gbps for 1.2m/1.8m/2.5m.) ●It can also be used for purposes other than music production! Supports DisplayPort Alt Mode. Ideal for video creators and gamers, this cable is also ideal for connecting monitors and displays. It also functions as a video output cable for smartphones that support DP Alt Mode, such as iPhones and iPads (Type-C connection). Supports USB Power Delivery (up to 60W). Ideal for fast charging smartphones and tablet PCs, and also as a power cable for laptops such as the MacBook Pro. Details of SCI-04: High-performance conductor and reinforced power line The conductor of the "SCI-04" is made of "thick-gauge silver-plated high-purity oxygen-free copper", which improves the conductor skin effect during high-speed communication and increases transmission efficiency. In addition, the power lines have been reinforced to AWG21, improving the stability of bus-powered devices and software. ●Complete noise prevention The signal path uses an ultra-fine coaxial structure with triple shielding (tin-plated copper braided shield, aluminum Mylar tape, copper Mylar tape) to increase noise resistance, reducing conducted noise levels by approximately 25% compared to a typical USB4 cable (twisted pair). As a result, interference caused by radiated noise is prevented, and stable transfer performance is ensured. Excellent connector design The USB Type-C connector uses a Corson alloy, which has excellent metallic spring properties and conductivity. It is equipped with a highly reliable Type-C connector that has improved insertion/removal durability and transmission efficiency. In addition, the combination of an aluminum cover printed with the Oyaide/NEO logo and PVC resin suppresses resonance frequencies and controls micro-vibrations to the terminals. In addition, the inside of the connector is equipped with an aluminum cover and shell shield to provide 360-degree protection for the cable joint from noise, improving the shielding effect all the way to the end of the cable. In digital transmission, the precision of the connector is important to suppress reflection noise. The USB4 cable, which consists of a total of 15 cores, maintains impedance consistency by using a fully automated, state-of-the-art soldering process to reduce contact loss. ●The highly durable "SCI-04" uses a high-quality, dedicated TPE sheath material that is less likely to hydrolyze. It offers high durability and flexibility, and delivers excellent performance even over long-term use. While cable outer diameter and performance are proportional, with the SCI-04 we placed importance on balancing ease of handling with durability. With professional use in mind, we carefully considered the balance of convenience, durability, and transmission performance, and have adopted a thicker cable outer diameter of 5.3 mm. ●Eye-catching color design The cable color is "matt black." We take into consideration the increasing number of conceptual stages where restrictions are placed on the cable colors of equipment. On the other hand, cable visibility is also important during setup and operation on stage, such as setting up and recovering. Therefore, we added a visual accent of "gold anodized aluminum" to the connector cover, improving the sense of luxury and visibility. ●The most advanced USB4 standard USB4 is compatible with any USB Type-C interface. It is compatible with Thunderbolt 3, which has become the standard in professional recording environments, and of course supports cascade connections. Furthermore, it is backward compatible with USB 2.0 to USB 3.2, so it can be used with any USB Type-C device. It also supports display/monitor connections for video production/gaming using DisplayPort Alt Mode, video output for smartphones that support DP Alt Mode, such as iPhones and iPads (USB Type-C connection), and high-speed charging/power supply via USB Power Delivery (up to 60W), allowing you to upgrade a wide variety of USB Type-C environments. ●World-class quality control.Compact and highly convenient Type-C connector. Because it is small and easy to carry, durability is essential. The "SCI-04" is manufactured under strict quality control, and only those that pass rigorous testing are shipped. In addition to tests under actual usage conditions such as insertion/removal durability, bending durability, and load durability, the cable undergoes a characteristic impedance test called a TDR (Time Domain Reflectometry) test, and in terms of environment, the cable is placed in high and low temperature environments with an altitude difference of 80°C or more for more than 48 hours to test its condition and electrical characteristics. In addition, the cable undergoes tests in humidity of 80% or more and ultraviolet light exposure. Only products that pass all of these tests are made into products. ●A wide range of cable lengths are available, ranging from 0.7m to 2.5m, for a total of four options. The "SCI-04 0.7m" supports transfer speeds of up to 40Gbps, while the "1.2m", "1.8m", and "2.5m" models support transfer speeds of up to 20Gbps. In addition, by improving noise resistance, we have succeeded in extending the transfer distance to 2.5m. While maintaining high quality, it also allows for greater freedom in equipment placement. #Audio Interface #Audio Interface Show more
