QED Performance Ethernet Graphite

QED Performance Ethernet Graphite

The Performance Ethernet cable is specially designed for the transmission of high-quality digital sound. This cable enables the transmission of high-quality digital sound between networked Ethernet components and is ideal for HD audio streamer applications up to 24 bit/192kHz. At QED, they have found that reducing jitter or timing errors in the digital signal produces a cleaner audio reproduction, and this also applies to Ethernet. The Performance Ethernet cable meets the CAT 6 UTP specification and has a bandwidth of 250 MHz, making it suitable for the latest high-quality digital audio.

Performance Ethernet cable features and benefits include 8/8 RJ45 gold-plated connectors, stranded 24AWG 99.999% OFC copper conductors, and gold-plated 8/8 RJ45 plugs to maintain low insertion loss rates over the life of the cable by minimizing signal reflections and contact resistances low. The cable has a 100 ohm characteristic impedance and offers a high bandwidth of up to 250 MHz, which is more than sufficient for HD Audio streamer applications. In addition, the asymmetrical twist frequencies are designed to reduce crosstalk, and a polyethylene former separates each twisted pair into its own compartment within the cable to keep the geometry highly uniform and eliminate crosstalk, as required by the Cat6 UTP standard. The Performance Ethernet cable comes with a lifetime warranty from QED.
