Digital Reference

State of the art digital coaxial cable real 75 ohm impedance made of high purity PC-OCC 7N silver conductor.

The DIGITAL REFERENCE cable can be used where the best quality of digital signal transmission is request to connect transport to dac, interface usb-s/pidf to dac, video signal and every audio or video application demanding a real 75 ohm impedance.

The DIGITAL REFERENCE cable, as our entry level Digital 75 OHM cable, differently from the majority of digital cables on the market it’s a digital cable with a perfect 75 OHM impedance because, not only the cable but also the connectors are true 75 OHM impedance.

The DIGITAL REFERENCE cable is terminated with the valuable Canare 75 ohm RCA connectors or as an alternative with Canare BNC connectors, both made of beryllium copper external contacts and teflon insulation. Canare RCA connectors are the only RCA connectors in the market to respect the 75 ohm impedance.

The DIGITAL REFERENCE is made of PC-OCC 7N silver conductor with PE foam insulation. Its performances are better than a common coaxial copper digital cable because:

• Silver conductors have better performances at frequencies interested by digital signal and faster propagation delay compared to copper conductors.
• The insulator employed to separate the central conductor from the return one is PE foam, material having a lower dielectric constant than the more diffused PVC.
• The use of connectors such as Canare RCA 75 ohm or Canare BNC guarantee the respect of the 75 ohm impedance all over the digital signal path, while this can’t happen on usual rca connectors;
• The presence of a triple shield, made with a combination of one copper foil shield and two silver plated copper braided shield, guarantee a 100% coverage shielding that preserve digital signal from external sources of disturb like RFI and EMI in a more effective way than the use of a single shield.

The Digital Reference coaxial cable, in addition to the usual application in connecting transport to dac, it’s well suited to computer audio because the presence of the triple shield avoid the digital signal gets disturbed from the connection with the computer that it’s a great source of RFI. It can be terminated on different combination of connectors thus permitting the best digital connection (avoiding the use of adapters causing jitter and signal losses) with digital transports, music servers, usb to s/pdif converters and dac. Available on request on the following connectors combination: RCA/RCA, RCA/BNC, BNC/BNC. The interconnect is directional. The direction of the signal is marked from the top of the Neutral Cable triangle logo (like an arrow showing the direction).
