Shunyata Research Omega Ethernet Cable

Sale price$3,000.00

The Shunyata Research Omega Ethernet Cable is a testament to innovation and engineering excellence, boasting a combination of cutting-edge technologies that elevate network audio performance to unprecedented levels. Key among these is the implementation of KPIP (Kinetic Phase Inversion Process), a proprietary conditioning technique that enhances the cable's conductivity and ensures optimal signal transfer. This process primes the cable for superior audio transmission, enabling audiophiles to experience their favorite music with unrivaled clarity and precision.

Additionally, the integration of Arni technology further enhances the cable's performance by reducing signal distortion and minimizing electromagnetic interference. Combined with Telegartner connectors renowned for their reliability and precision, the Shunyata Research Omega Ethernet Cable guarantees a stable and robust connection for high-fidelity audio streaming. Furthermore, the incorporation of TAP (Transient Absorption Process) technology and CMODE filters works synergistically to eliminate noise and jitter, resulting in a cleaner and more dynamic audio signal. Lastly, Precision Matched Z construction ensures uniform impedance throughout the cable's length, preserving signal integrity and maximizing performance consistency across audio systems. With these advanced technologies working in concert, the Shunyata Research Omega Ethernet Cable sets a new standard for network audio excellence, offering audiophiles an unparalleled listening experience characterized by unmatched clarity, detail, and immersion.

OMEGA ETHERNET



Companion to the Omega S/PDIF and Coaxial cables, the ethernet cable developed by Shunyata will provide unparalleled audio transparency worthy of the Shunyata legacy.



TECHNOLOGY




Shunyata Research digital cables are produced using a ‌Precision Matched Z (‌‌PMZ) concept. This means that tolerances of the conductor surface, dielectric extrusion, and the precision of the braided shield are held to minute variances. To achieve these tight tolerances, the extrusion and braiding machines must be run at one-quarter speed during the manufacturing process. The result is better performance through a reduction of cable-induced ‘signal jitter’. (Note: Z means impedance)
‌‌ArNi® is a type of wire created by Shunyata Research designed to be the finest quality wire available for audio purposes. It begins with the highest purity of copper available – OFE C10100 or Ohno (single crystal). Then it is formed in virtual hollow tubes eliminating skin effects and eddy current distortions. A premium fluorocarbon insulation minimizes dielectric absorption and re-radiation, greatly improving resolution and clarity. In addition, the wire undergoes our proprietary KPIP™ process.
For the purest signal possible, Shunyata Research has combined its patent-pending TAP technology (trans-axial polarizer) and CMode filter (common mode filtering technology) into a single hybrid module. The TAP polarizer reduces polarization distortion while the CMode filter simultaneously reduces high-frequency noise distortion, delivering analog ease and palpable background silence that will close the gap between digital and analog front-end performance.

Telegartner

The Telegartner ethernet connector are made in Germany and they performed best in our battery of laboratory tests.  Their full metal construction provides shielding between conductor-pairs and eliminate outside interference.
