The 2.5′ Forest RJ/E Ethernet Cable from AudioQuest offers high-speed, low delay time (latency), significant distance capability (328′ (100 m) without an active booster or repeater), and an extremely low-jitter.
It uses the Category 7 (Cat7) standard as a foundation and a particular feature of Cat7 is that each of the four pairs are individually shielded and drained. This is common in HDMI, USB and FireWire cables but is unusual in an Ethernet cable.

This has got to be the biggest bang for the dollar out there. If you are into computer audio, you owe it to yourself to buy one of these. For the money there is nothing even close. Increase in clarity and detail is one of it’s positives, lower noise floor.
