Contacta RL-TAPE-12.5

The Contacta RL-TAPE-12.5 is a flat copper tape and is used in teleloop systems. Normally, a round cable is used to create a loop for a teleloop system. However, when a round cable is used under carpet or under parquet/laminate flooring, it creates a threshold or an elevation in the floor. This is not desirable in many situations and can even lead to dangerous situations. In these situations it is possible to replace the standard round cable with flat copper tape. This eliminates the threshold while maintaining functionality.The RL-TAPE-12.5 is a flat copper tape 0.5 millimeters thick with a width of 12.5 millimeters. The tape comes on a roll of 100 meters.


The tape should be used just like a round cable. However to make a bend you can fold the tape. In addition, it is possible to connect the tape by soldering it together. Although the advice is to minimize this as much as possible.
Design & engineering
A loop system can be a single loop around a room, or it can be a complex system of multiple loops with multiple segments. Which situation is applicable is determined by a number of factors. Examples include the function of the room, the dimensions of the room, as well as the material used in the room in question. Depending on the complexity of the system, a design may be required. Whether it is a simple system or a complex system it is advisable to be well informed and advised. Therefore, seek no-obligation advice from Tau Audio Solutions so that you get a good and solid system that meets the applicable standards.
