Used for all ethernet connections within any serious media network, the reduction in digital artefacts and colouration are significant.

Employing unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) and proprietary noise and vibration techniques and terminated with the best RJ45 connectors available, the DATA LAN is way ahead of rivals costing much more.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnwanted vibration and RFI transmission along digital leads is a serious problem with noisy digital equipment such as routers and network storage devices generating and sending considerable amounts of this pollution into your sensitive media players. The problem is not limited to those connections which are carrying the media itself – connections that may only be passing control signals or doing other network duties are also raising the noise and vibration levels getting into your system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDigital designers will tell you that data is a sequence of ones and zeros and that a cable simply needs to transport this information. Whilst in the digital domain, software models and computer algorithms are readily used for correction of errors in digital data streams, there is emerging evidence that these techniques rely on approximation or lookup tables and that there is a finite probability that there will be inaccuracies in this approach. An engineering philosophy that has been proven to be a superior approach is that “it is always better to prevent the problem than find the cure”.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile the OSI 7-layer Ethernet protocol specification encompasses packet switching, parity checking, fetch\/re-fetch cycles and error correction, we favoured preventing damage to the data stream to relying on error correction techniques.

Due to the cable cores being twisted together both crosstalk and system noise levels are significantly reduced. These are encapsulated in a low-loss dielectric resulting in a extremely low cable capacitance. This is then threaded through our proprietary EMI\/RFI tubing which absorbs unwanted standing waves minimise signal damage caused by modulation. The cable is finished off with our ABS low acoustic braiding and terminated in die-cast zinc RJ45 connectors using handmade techniques to ensure that the twisted-pair formation is as close as possible to the gold-plated steel connectors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDATA LAN Streaming cables result in fewer errors giving the correction circuitry in the receiving device less work to do. This is important since high levels of error correction introduces more noise when extracting and processing the data.
