OMEGA-X Ethernet

From Shunyata
Omega-X Ethernet is an SR-6a Ethernet cable with PTFE dielectric, Telegartner connectors, 100 percent shield coverage, and 100 ohm +/-15 characteristic impedance. The saved specs list a 50-element TAPc implementation, triple-element CMode filtering, 4 days of KPIP v2 processing, and a 1.50 m standard length.
Specifications
| TAPc | (Transverse Axial Polarizer) is a patent-pending technology that couples to the electromagnetic fields surrounding electrical or signal conductors. TAPc behaves like a polarizer, passively reducing electromagnetic distortion that presents as a type of glare on sound or images. | 50 elements |
|---|---|
| KPIP v2 Processing | Shunyata Research’s proprietary Kinetic Phase Inversion Process includes four days of continuous KPIP v2™ processing which refines conductor metals at the atomic level. This dramatically reduces burn-in time and significantly improves sonic performance, delivering a relaxed and life-like presentation. When compared to the original process, KPIP v2™ represents a dramatic performance upgrade on par with a component-level upgrade. | 4-days |
| Common-mode noise | is different than differential noise and is much more difficult to measure and eliminate. For the purest signal possible, Shunyata Research has developed a CMode filter that effectively reduces common-mode noise without introducing the sonic compression effects associated with conventional filters. It reduces high-frequency noise distortion while delivering an analog ease and palpable background silence that closes the gap between digital and analog systems. | triple element |
