Tempest 2 Ethernet cable is the ideal way for audio enthusiasts to connect their NAS and music streaming devices. Eight, 23 AWG solid-core copper conductors are insulated in super low-loss foamed polyethylene and arranged into four variable-pitch twisted pairs to reduce crosstalk. The shielding is advanced: each pair is individually foil screened (s/ftp), a thick outer foil screen is then applied to these four conductor pairs and a dense copper braid on top of that. Finally, the assembled cable is terminated with fully-shielded metal body RJ45 connectors to preserve signal integrity. Such a design helps ensure accurate signal transmission over long lengths and offers impressive resistance to electrical noise.
