Heritage and History
Canare Electric, a Japanese cable manufacturer, established American operations in North Hollywood, California to serve the broadcast and professional audio/video market. The L-4E6S starquad microphone cable became the specification standard for American broadcast facilities — a four-conductor spiral design that rejects electromagnetic interference with exceptional effectiveness.
North Hollywood's proximity to the major Los Angeles broadcast facilities and recording studios that specified Canare cable made the location strategic for both distribution and technical support. Broadcast engineers who specified Canare in their signal chains wanted cable assembled to the standards that the specifications required.
Assembled in North Hollywood, California
Canare assembles starquad microphone cables, video coaxials, and specialty cables at its North Hollywood, California facility, using Canare-manufactured cable and connectors that meet the tight tolerances of broadcast specifications. The assembly operation ensures that the connector termination quality matches the exceptional noise rejection and signal quality of the Canare cable itself.
For broadcast engineers, studio installers, and audio professionals who require cables certified to broadcast specifications, Canare's North Hollywood assembly provides American-made cables that meet the standards of major network broadcast operations. The starquad design's noise rejection advantage is most apparent in environments with strong electromagnetic interference — broadcast facilities, hospitals, and industrial settings where conventional cables would pick up unacceptable noise.
