[QUOTE="Rob Spence, post: 125557, member: 80"] Re: Digital snake cable question Sigh... You want to use the cable recommended by the maker of your digital desk. There is no single right solution for all purposes. Some desks want cat5e UTP, some want cat6, and others want cat5. Some want shielded. There has been much discussion on problems people have when using cables other than those specified for their gear. Somehow they want their choice, even though not what is specified, to magically work. While an analog snake works fine for all brands of mixers, the digital world is not the same. At least an Ethercon snake cable is far less expensive than the equivalent analog snake so even if you have multiple mixers from different brands you can have a cable for each.
