Neotech’s UP-OCC Copper represents the highest-quality stranded-core copper wire available today, offering exceptional conductivity and signal purity. Designed for internal wiring in high-end audio components—including speakers, amplifiers, CD players, and DACs—this wire is also ideal for speaker cables, interconnects, power cables, and general hook-up applications.
Advanced Materials & Engineering
7N UP-OCC Copper (99.99998% Pure) – Neotech’s Ultra Pure Ohno Continuous Cast (UP-OCC) copper achieves a purity level unmatched by conventional conductors, ensuring ultra-low resistance and superior signal transfer.
Solid Core Construction – Provides stable, distortion-free transmission, minimizing signal loss and preserving the integrity of delicate audio signals.
High-Temperature PTFE (Teflon) Insulation – Heat-resistant, durable, and non-reactive, ensuring long-term reliability and electrical stability.
Why UP-OCC?
Developed by Professor Ohno at the Chiba Institute of Technology in Japan, the UP-OCC process creates conductors with an average crystal size of 125 meters (410 feet)—dramatically larger than conventional Oxygen-Free Copper (OFC), which has an average crystal length of just 0.02 meters (3/4 inch).
This unidirectional, nearly boundary-free crystal structure results in:
✔ Faster signal transmission with minimal phase distortion.
✔ Lower electrical resistance for improved efficiency.
✔ Greater transparency and resolution compared to OFC and standard silver conductors.
State-of-the-Art Conductor Technology
Neotech has been at the forefront of audiophile-grade cable manufacturing since 1980, pioneering the use of UP-OCC copper and silver conductors for high-fidelity applications. With exceptional purity, low distortion, and unparalleled signal accuracy, UP-OCC conductors are considered the gold standard in high-performance audio cabling.
