What is the danger

The plastic material of the cable has excessive concentrations of bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) and short chain chlorinated paraffins (SCCPs) (measured values up to 0.14% and 0.42% by weight, respectively). Moreover, the solders in the product have an excessive concentration of cadmium (measured value up to 0.52% by weight). DEHP poses a risk to human health and the environment. SCCPs persist in the environment, are toxic to aquatic organisms at low concentrations and bio-accumulate in wildlife and humans, posing a risk to human health and the environment. Prolonged exposure to them through the skin may cause cancer. Cadmium bio-accumulates and poses a risk to the environment.
