RJ/E Ethernet Cable
Tax excluded.
Over the past several years there’s been a revolution in the way people store, distribute, and access digital media, including photos, movies, and, of course, music. No longer dependent on physical media, our media is often data that’s moved from multiple devices to multiple locations. For audio applications and protocols, audio over Ethernet offers the virtues of high-speed, low time delay (latency), significant distance capability (328 feet without an active booster or repeater), and extremely low-jitter, bit-perfect communication.
How effectively these promises of Ethernet translate into real-world performance depends upon the quality of your Ethernet cable. AudioQuest's Diamond RJ/E is a state-of-the-art Ethernet cable featuring Solid 100% Silver conductors, high-density polyethylene insulation, Carbon-Based Noise-Dissipation, 72v Dielectric-Bias System (DBS), precision-made Telegärtner connectors with 100% shield coverage and strain relief, and CAT7 high-speed data capacity.
AudioQuest’s digital cables start with Solid Long-Grain Copper (LGC) conductors. Each successive step up the line adds increasing amounts of silver plating and reaps the associated cost-effective performance benefits: improved noise-dissipation for clearer, cleaner, more naturally beautiful sound. Solid 100% Silver conductors are the ultimate expression of this AudioQuest design element.

- Solid conductors eliminate strand interaction, a major source of distortion.
- 100% Silver Conductors: AudioQuest's finest digital-audio conductor metal is the ultimate expression of the company's thoughts on efficient Noise-Dissipation, affording clean, clear, naturally beautiful sound.
- Geometry Stabilizing Solid High-Density Polyethylene: Carefully selected and optimized for its ability within an Ethernet cable to minimize distortion and preserve dynamics.
- Individually shielded pairs minimize crosstalk between pairs (a Cat7 requirement). Overall shield around all pairs minimizes outside interference.
- Carbon-Based Noise-Dissipation: Alternating layers of metal and carbon-loaded synthetics "shield the shield," absorbing and reflecting most RF energy before it reaches the layer attached to ground.
- Precision-Made Low-Loss Telegärtner RJ-45 Connectors: Provide efficient shield coverage and extra-strong tabs for ultimate durability.
- Directionality: All drawn metal strands or conductors have a non-symmetrical, and therefore directional, grain structure. AudioQuest controls the resulting RF impedance variation so that noise is drained away from where it will cause distortion. The correct direction is determined by listening to every batch of metal conductors used in every AudioQuest audio cable. When applicable, arrows are clearly marked on the connectors to ensure superior sound quality.
- 72v Dielectric-Bias System (DBS): AudioQuest’s patented DBS creates an electrostatic field that molecularly optimizes the cable’s insulation (dielectric). This minimizes distortion by increasing the dielectric’s efficiency at high frequency, resulting in clearer sound emerging from a “blacker” background. An RF Trap further reduces induced radio-frequency noise.
