FEATURES

NCF Piezo Ceramic Series Connectors • A Furutech First!

Furutech’s Pure Transmission FI-50 NCF Piezo Ceramic series connector bodies
and housings feature several breakthrough construction techniques.

A multilayer nonmagnetic stainless steel and silver plated carbon fiber shell
incorporates a special damping and insulating acetal copolymer. Furutech
settled on stainless and silver plated carbon fiber for the outer housing after
extensive listening sessions with Japanese industry figures and audiophiles.

The body of the connectors incorporates an “active” damping material: Nano
Crystal² Formula – Nano Crystalline, Ceramic and Carbon Powder

Incorporated into select Furutech products, Nano Crystal² Formula — NCF is
comprised of a special crystalline material that has two “active” properties.
First, it generates negative ions that eliminate static and secondly, it converts
thermal energy into far-infrared. Furutech then combines this remarkable
crystalline material with nano-sized ceramic particles and carbon powder for
their additional “Piezo Effect” damping properties. The resulting Nano Crystal²
Formula is the ultimate electrical and mechanical damping material – only found
in Furutech products!

Nano Crystal² Formula eliminates static, “interconverts” thermal, mechanical
and electrical energy and damps vibrations—all for the finest Furutech Pure
Transmission signal imaginable.

Floating Magnetic Field Effects

The Furutech Earth/Ground Jumper System

How far will Furutech’s engineers go in their attempts to reach Pure
Transmission reference quality? Their concentrated examination of each and
every element of signal transfer has resulted in another breakthrough
technology, the Furutech Earth/Ground Jumper System. It eliminates EMI
(Electromagnetic Interference) induced in metal parts like connector housing
screws. 

Current flowing through the power connector creates a magnetic field, just as
an insulated conductor creates both electromagnetic and electrostatic fields.
Furutech engineers found this magnetic field induces current flow (and a small
magnetic field) in the screws holding the connector together! These magnetic
fields interfere with the larger magnetic field around the conductor and
connector. 

Furutech’s total attention to detail and elegant engineering neatly solves the
problem. The Earth/Ground Jumper System connects the securing screws to a
ground terminal within the plug completely eliminating the field disturbances
they cause. The stray fields are grounded by a series of interlocking parts
within the connector that attach to the ground conductor. The Jumper System is
available in Furutech NEMA Power and IEC Connectors.　The Earth/Ground Jumper
