Transparent USB cable is specifically designed for computer audio and digital music server applications Large gauge conductors allow for accurate signal transfer up to 20 feet compared with computer USB cables that are limited to a few meters Transparent USB allows computers to be located away from audio components without compromising performance Precision construction techniques and superior noise rejection results in richer, more natural sound compared with computer USB cables Three shields and precision extruded foam polyethylene dielectric provide superior noise performance for better resolution of musical details and more dynamic range USB-A to USB-B termination Frequently Asked Questions What makes the Transparent USB Cable superior to standard computer cables? Unlike generic USB leads, Transparent USB cables are engineered specifically for high-end digital audio applications. They incorporate large-gauge conductors, precision-extruded foam polyethylene dielectric, and three layers of shielding to suppress electromagnetic and radio-frequency noise, delivering enhanced dynamic range, richer tonal resolution, and an authentic musical presentation. What is the maximum functional run length? Standard computer USB leads typically suffer signal degradation beyond a few metres. The Transparent USB cable maintains pristine signal integrity and timing accuracy across runs of up to 20 feet (approximately 6 metres), allowing you to position computers and network hardware well away from your sensitive audio components without compromising fidelity. What terminations are fitted to this cable? The cable is fitted with premium USB-A to USB-B terminations, providing optimal connectivity between host computers or dedicated digital music servers and high-performance digital-to-analogue converters (DACs).
