GearIT CAT6 Ethernet Cable, EtherCON-Compatible RJ45 Connectors for Pro Audio, Aluminum Shielded, Oxygen Free Copper - 50 ft. - Black

Exactly as pictured and described! Works great, No problems!

Overall: Recommended! Simplifies the stage setup and is very dependable over long distances Yep this is a great option for managing long stage setups from stage to mixer. I like the small form factor of the cable itself and also of the 4 channel connectors. Makes stage setup easy Cheers : )

CAT6, oxygen-free copper cable in a solid-feeling rubberized jacket with pro-quality cannon connectors (ethercon-type). This is one nice cable! I ordered it, to pair with Gearits 4-channel DMX/XLR Audio extender. This cable works perfectly. The cables cannon/ehtercon connectors click into the extender boxes, firmly- making for excellent, noise-free signal conduction. It is worth a mention that this cable is advertised and labeled as shielded. However, the specification for the shielding isnt stated. Because of this, I assume the cable is CAT6 F/UTP... which means the cable would consist of 4 unshielded twisted pairs, surrounded by an outer foil shield- just beneath the jacket. For shielding at the individual twisted pair level, the cable would have to be CAT6A. That said, this cable is robust, features pro-quality assembly, and yields pro-quality signal propagation. Id buy more.

This is a really nice cable. It is thick, high quality, and rugged. Id expect this to last quite a while. The connectors are really high quality and sturdy.

Had an ethercon that was making intermittent connection, so I used this one to replace it. It has been flawless. Cable construction is obviously very good, very durable. Connectors are well made. I have no complaints about this ethercon cable.

You might be unfamiliar with Ethercon cables. Electronically, theyre no different than your standard CAT6 RJ45 ethernet cable. The difference is the connector. And while most standard RJ45 cables will work with an Ethercon jack, the reverse is NOT true. Ethercon cables cant be used with most network cards, etc., as they have a far more robust retainer to make pulling them out more difficult. These are a part of GearITs ecosystem of devices, useful for audio snakes, carrying DMX for lighting, or AES for digital audio. These are situations where you DO NOT want a network cable to pull out accidentally, as it can set off an apocalyptic range of audio madness. The Ethercon connector prevents that. When its snapped in, youre protected against all but the most abusive situations. Theres only one word to describe GearITs version of the Ethercon cable. HARDCORE. As in almost overkill, but the confidence level in these holding up is100%. They come in varying lengths. I ordered the six, ten, and fifteen-foot versions. All are equally well built. So much so, I was actually quite surprised. On top of that, theyre very well packaged, with their website, tech support phone/email and hours of operation printed right on the bags. The product photos are accurate--thats exactly how they were delivered. This is a case where Id award ten stars if I could. Operation of the cable is flawless. Just phenomenally well constructed and presented. Cant beat that.

Impressed - very thick shielding and has a heavy duty feel to it. Works between modem and computer, no issues there. Cant speak much more that than - but it works for my needs.

When I learned about Ethercon pretty recently, I was excited. Since then, I’ve used several types of XLR snake boxes, all connected via Ethercon, and I am totally sold. These GearIT cables are great. Well made, reliable, and carry the signal perfectly. I have tried longer runs that work great for live shows, and this shorter (10 foot) run I’m using in the home studio. Very pleased with it. I am a big fan of GearIt products, because I have had nothing but positive experiences with their equipment so far!

This cable is extremely well built. It has a thick jacket around it to prevent tearing and scraping. The connections are tight and all of it is very durable. I would not hesitate to take this on tour. They have several different lengths. I say get one longer than you would think you would need and youll be good to go.

Great cable to go with my network snake. Multiple audio channels can be sent through this one cable with no loss of sound quality. The cable is rugged and ready for life on the road.
