AudioQuest Vodka RJ/E Ethernet Cable Over the last several years, companies such as Marantz, Musical Fidelity, Linn, Naim, Sonos, Sooloos, and Squeezebox (to name just a few) as well as groups such as DLNA and UPnP have revolutionized the way we can store, move, and listen to music (and view movies). Ethernet offers high-speed, low-latency, significant distance (1000ft), and extremely low jitter. Who wouldn't want all of these things? Just as we discovered many years ago with S/PDIF cables, it is easy to damage the information package. To avoid corruption (jitter), AudioQuest offers new models of high-performance Ethernet cables featuring better metals, critical signal-pair geometry, Noise-Dissipation System-all proven techniques for delivering superior digital audio. Solid 10% Silver Conductors Solid conductors eliminate strand-interaction distortion and reduce jitter. Solid silver-plated copper conductors are excellent for very high-frequency applications, like Ethernet audio. These signals, being such a high frequency travel almost exclusively on the surface of the conductor. As the surface is made of high-purity silver, the performance is very close to that of a solid silver cable, but priced much closer to solid copper cable. This is an incredibly cost effective way of manufacturing very high quality Ethernet cables. Carbon-Based Noise-Dissipation System (NDS) 100% shield coverage is easy. Preventing captured RF Interference from modulating the equipment's ground reference requires AQ's Noise-Dissipation System. Metal and Carbon-Loaded synthetics prevent most RFI from reaching the equipment's ground plane. Solid High-Density Polyethylene Insulation Any solid material adjacent to a conductor is actually part of an imperfect circuit. Wire insulation and circuit board materials all absorb energy (loss). Some of this
