PCT International Awarded Advanced Shielding Patent
5.8.2021 23:43:00 EEST | Business Wire | Press release
PCT International has received a new coaxial cable patent from the USPTO, patent #US11,037,703. This innovative patent provides enhanced shielding tape for PCT’s Coaxial Cable Products. Enhanced shielding protects the signals in the cable from outside interference and helps prevent signal leakage. Superior shielding is required to support the expanding broadband internet demands consumers require for personal and business uses. This new patented technology applies to multiple types of cables within the home, such as broadband coaxial, security, Ethernet, and HDMI. Existing installations with obsolete, poorly shielded coaxial cable will suffer more and more as bandwidths used for broadband telecommunications networks expand to allow the 10G services being developed today.

PCT’s continued commitment to innovation via PCT Labs development and certification processes offers its customers a strategic advantage in the marketplace. The average 2,500 sq. ft. home has a combination of over 400 ft. of broadband coaxial, security, Ethernet, and HDMI cables in it. PCT’s enhanced shielding can safeguard the Last Mile from the signal tap to within the home or business.
A total of 170 broadband patents have been granted or registered to PCT since its founding. Today, 160 of these innovative technology patents are still in force with 61 pending approval, all serving the broadband cable industry. “Our latest patented cable technologies continue PCT’s cutting edge leadership in serving the Last Mile in broadband markets,” said Steve Youtsey, PCT’s CEO.
PCT’s Vice President of Global Technology, Leonard Visser, elaborated on this, “Continuity and shielding have always been important and are even more so now. We recognized this years ago when we developed the first true continuity connector that locks components together, metal to metal, for superior connector signal shielding. We then developed our original Triton Coaxial Cable with improved laminates for the best shielding available. And we’re still leading the industry with enhanced foils today to prevent and mitigate micro-fractures that spell trouble with higher bandwidths. PCT has even pioneered the use of quantum tunneling composites to bring shielding to unheard-of levels.”
Organizations like the Society of Cable Telecommunications Engineers1 (SCTE) are educating the industry on the trend toward higher bandwidths. PCT has been a leader in these areas for many years and continues to plan for our customers’ future needs.

Americhem Expands Aircraft Interior Portfolio with PFAS-Free Thermoplastic Platform Meeting 55/55 OSU, Low Smoke, and Low Toxicity Requirements4.3.2026 14:00:00 EET | Press release
Americhem is expanding its aircraft interior materials portfolio with ColorFast® SFT5500, a PFAS-free high-performance thermoplastic engineered to meet FAA 14 CFR 25.853, Appendix F, Part IV, 55/55 OSU heat release requirements while delivering low smoke and low toxicity characteristics for aircraft interior applications. PFAS-free thermoplastic systems capable of achieving 55/55 OSU performance while maintaining low smoke and low toxicity characteristics remain limited in the aerospace market. ColorFast® SFT5500 addresses this need with demonstrated 55/55 OSU heat release performance, low smoke emission characteristics, and low flaming-mode toxicity performance in a high-performance thermoplastic platform designed specifically for injection-molded interior components. Aircraft interior thermoplastics must meet stringent fire standards while maintaining durability, thermal stability, and process consistency. As legacy fluorinated material systems face increasing regulatory scrutiny, ma
NETSCOUT Reveals Qualitative Shifts in DDoS Attack Sophistication, Infrastructure Capacity, and Threat Actor Capabilities4.3.2026 13:05:00 EET | Press release
NETSCOUT® SYSTEMS, INC. (NASDAQ: NTCT), today released its second half of the year 2025 Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) Threat Intelligence Report, revealing sophisticated attacker collaboration, resilient botnets, and compromised IoT infrastructure that drove more than eight million DDoS attacks worldwide – some as large as 30 terabits per second (Tbps) – marking a new era of hyper-scale, coordinated threat activity that continues to outpace global takedown efforts. Meanwhile, the accelerating growth of DDoS-for-hire services is empowering a broader range of threat actors, intensifying operational risk to digitally connected organizations and enterprises. Implications for security professionals extend far beyond volumetric concerns and include reconnaissance and adaptive evasion which challenge traditional defense paradigms. Organizations must match adversarial innovation with intelligent, autonomous defenses, or risk operational disruption at levels previously considered theoret
