Ethernet


I am adding a HiFi Rose RS 130 to my set up and need to split my ethernet cable run...  Here is my question:  I have about a 20' run into the splitter , then 2 x 3' runs to the RS130 and a BluSound Vault.  I have been using a $20 ethernet Cat 5 cable on the BluSound Vault alone.  I am seeing (typical) ethernet runs for $7,000 to $1.50.  Where do I go here?  Primary goal is to make sure all 3 runs are identical and really NOT thinking of spending a ton here.  Thoughts?  Cat 5...6...7...?

Help !!

Speaker and interconnects you can discuss, but for data cables?? There are specs. Running an out of spec cable and claiming it sounds better…?!?!

this is entirely adequate

unless people claim that exotic cables can clean the ground plane….

or improve jitter. If you are concerned about jitter you must run 10gb speed Ethernet.
