[Cat 6a] I plugged the two ends into their respective jack and data transfers along the cable. 5

[RJ45 Male] We'll made Costly... yet cheaper here than anywhere else. Super fast shipping 5

[500 MHz] Ethercon's expensive, and this cable runs dear even for ethercon. But compared to most other ethercon cables I've handled, this SuperCat from Rat Sound's SoundTools line works really well for stage sound-the jacketing lets it lie as flat as a mic cable instead of twisting and coiling the way most ethercon does. As a bonus, the purple version is easy to identify when setting/striking, but the color is matte enough that it's not much more obvious on stage (from the audience perspective) than regular stage-black cable. During the pandemic, it's a long wait for this SuperCat. If you are able to wait, though, worth it for quality and features. 5

[Yes] I use SoundTools CAT5 audio on nearly every recording job. It is easily deployed, thin, and extendible with passive couplers. In order to use phantom power, the cable must be grounded. This cable has separate grounded shields for each pair, resulting in no noticeable crosstalk. SoundTools SuperCAT excels in every detail. The hard shell vinyl jacket is on the stiff side, but withstands the abuse mobile setups often endure. I've tried other brands, but this produce is the best. 5

[RJ45 Male] Bought a 10' piece to check construction. It's flexible though jacket is tough. Shield is carried through to Neutrik barrel unlike the brand I bought previously. Get a short piece for yourself to try. This is all I will buy now. 5

[26 AWG] I chose ethernet communication between my Mac and new printer. This snag less ethernet cable with such great performance has proven itself to be a wise investment. 5

[EtherCON] Shielded Ethercon cable is necessary if you use this cable for microphones with phantom power. I bought other cable, cheaper and more available, with spotty results. The SoundTools cable is premium quality (and price), but built to last. I wouldn't want a piano to roll over it, but if it happens I'll probably still be in business. 5
