[QUOTE="Shane Presley, post: 82993, member: 110"] Re: Monitor out noise Dan - I checked the link you provided, the cable doesn't look any different that regular cat 5 (you can see the spiral in the jacket) - can you tell me if they have any type of reinforcement inside to keep the pairs aligned? What makes this cable "rugged", or "tactical" ? The other indication that this isn't a "thick or rugged cable" is that it looks like the cable is not even filling up the opening to the XLR boot. When I was testing my snake heads when I first got them I was using standard cat 5 (not tactical cat 5). I had a 25 ft run between the snake head and the console, and when I stepped on the cat 5 on my way by, the audio stopped. I believe that crushing the pairs caused the audio stoppage. You might be disturbing the pairs when you are moving your cables is what is causing the pink noise, digital hash whatever.
