Detailed Description

High-Speed Oxygen-Free Copper Conductors

The C-stream cable is constructed with high-speed oxygen-free copper conductors. This material is chosen for its excellent conductivity and ability to transmit high-frequency signals with minimal loss, ensuring the integrity of your audio and video streams.

Individually Shielded Twisted Conductor Pairs

Each conductor pair within the C-stream cable is individually shielded and twisted. This design minimizes crosstalk and electromagnetic interference, which can degrade signal quality. The overall shielding further protects the signal from external noise, ensuring a clear and stable connection.

Low-Loss Polyethylene Insulation

The use of low-loss polyethylene insulation around the conductors helps maintain signal integrity over longer distances. This material has excellent dielectric properties, reducing signal attenuation and preserving the high-frequency response required for high-quality streaming.

Gold-Plated Signal Contacts

The C-stream cable features 24ct. gold-plated signal contacts. Gold is used for its resistance to corrosion and oxidation, which can affect the quality of connections over time. These gold-plated contacts ensure a reliable and long-lasting connection between your devices.

Over-Moulded Plug Surround

The cable includes an over-moulded plug surround, which provides additional durability and strain relief. This feature helps protect the cable from damage at the connector ends, where cables are most susceptible to wear and tear. The Non-Compression Strain Relief System in the C-stream cable prevents the connectors from being compressed, which can lead to signal degradation. This system ensures that the connectors maintain their shape and integrity.

Direction

Look for a black dot on one of the RJ45 connectors. For best sound quality, the plug with the black dot should be connected to the source. If using the cable to connect an audio streamer to a router the plug with the black dot should be connected to the router.
