IMPORTANT WARNING! - Fake copies on the market

As with any company who makes successful products there are always people who are copying them, no matter whether you are in the perfume, watch, clothing or cable industry.
Please note that there are some fake copies of The MAINSSTREAM HYBRID around.
They can be very easily recognized, even without knowing all the security markings placed on and inside the cable:

The copy has a more green than gold PVC shiny jacket.
The writing on the cable is different from the original one:

Original:
Van den Hul M.C. THE MAINSSTREAM HYBRID >Halogen free< VDE-Reg.-Nr. 7824 CE
Please note that the VDE-Reg. mark came after 2005
Copy:
van den Hul M.C. THE MAINSSTREAM HYBRID >Halogen free<


The copy also has non-original connectors, some marked C-320 or P-320.
The back of the connectors says MADE IN HOLLAND instead of VAN DEN HUL.
The copied American plug has no ground pin.
The copied UK plug is black where we use a white one with our logo in gold printed on it.
There is no Linear Structured Carbon ® inside so the function is just the same as (or worse than) any other standard € 5,- electricity cable bought at your local hardware store.
Please don’t use this cable. It is dangerously bad constructed and terminated.
There is a very realistic chance of malfunction causing damage to your equipment at best and the chance of being electrocuted or causing a fire at worst.

Jen pro jistotu:

Libore,
takže nejen koncovky, ale i kabel se kopíruje v Číně?

to už se tu ale všechno řešilo
čínskou kopii od skutečného VDH nerozezná jenom idiot

Chlapi, vy jste fakt blázni, ale každého asi vytočí něco jiného. Mně koncovky síťových kabelů nechávají klidným. Zato další zmrdi na senátních bilboardech mně serou jak prase! Furutech neFurutech, aspoň nám to nikdo necpe pod nos každý Boží den. Vnímáte ten rozdíl?
