{"title":"Digital Cables","description":"\u003cp\u003eDigital cables carry audio data between streamers, transports, DACs, and network gear. Digital audio is still an electrical signal traveling on a wire, and that wire still has to deliver it intact. The format sets the requirement: coaxial runs at 75 ohm, AES\/EBU at 110 ohm, and USB and Ethernet need correct twisted-pair geometry. A cable built to the wrong impedance creates reflections that reach the converter as timing error. Matching the cable to its format is the whole point.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe current digital cable range comes from Viablue, German-engineered with full-metal connectors and tight shielding. It covers coaxial RCA and AES\/EBU for transport-to-DAC links, USB for a computer or music server, CAT6A Ethernet for network streaming, and precision Toslink optical. Each cable is impedance-matched to its format, so the connection between source and converter stays clean.

Matrix Audio uses multi-core: four pairs of conductors, each core composed of seven strands of 0.16mm OFC twisted together. The multi-strand construction does two things at once. It keeps the cable physically flexible, so it can be routed and bent without becoming rigid at the connector. And it changes the conductor's surface behavior, which matters at the gigabit transfer rates this cable is designed for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/5073\/8528\/files\/matrix-audio-cat6a-cable-construction.jpg\" alt=\"Matrix Audio CAT6A cable cutaway showing seven-strand OFC cores aluminum foil shielding tin-plated copper mesh and nylon sleeve\" style=\"width:100%;height:auto;\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch5\u003eDual-Layer Shielding\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach conductor pair is individually wrapped in aluminum foil, isolating it from the other three pairs. The four wrapped pairs are then bundled and wrapped again in a tin-plated copper wire mesh. Outside that mesh is a flame-retardant PVC inner cover and a braided nylon sleeve. Internal crosstalk between pairs gets blocked by the foil. External EMI from power supplies, switching transformers, and other gear in the rack gets blocked by the copper mesh. The result is a clean signal path even in dense rack environments where a music streamer sits next to a power amplifier and a Wi-Fi access point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch5\u003eRJ45 Connector Construction\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe RJ45 plug housing is a fully shielded metal shell, not the bare plastic plug that ships on most Ethernet cables. The contact pins are gold-plated to 50µm, which is well above the 1-3µm typical for commodity Cat.6 cables. Lower contact resistance, no oxidation over insertion cycles. Inside the connector, the termination PCB is high-frequency FR-4 material, chosen to maintain stable transfer impedance through the plug rather than introducing reflections at the cable-to-jack handoff.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/5073\/8528\/files\/matrix-audio-cat6a-rj45-connector-cutaway.jpg\" alt=\"Matrix Audio CAT6A RJ45 connector cutaway showing high-frequency FR-4 PCB and 50 micron gold plated pins\" style=\"width:100%;height:auto;\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch5\u003eFlexible Without Sacrificing 10GbE\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause the cable uses multi-core wires instead of single-core, it stays flexible while still meeting the Cat.6A 10 Gigabit Ethernet specification.
