Shunyata Alpha Ethernet Cable
The Shunyata Research Alpha Ethernet Cable sets a new standard in digital audio performance. Utilizing the Precision Matched Z (PMZ) concept, this cable maintains minute tolerances in conductor surface, dielectric extrusion, and braided shield precision, achieved by running extrusion and braiding machines at one-quarter speed. This meticulous process reduces cable-induced signal jitter, ensuring superior performance.

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.
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. – Reduces common-mode noise
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.
KPIP™ PROCESSING
Shunyata Research’s proprietary Kinetic Phase Inversion Process includes four days of continuous KPIP™ processing to dramatically reduce burn-in time and significantly improve sonic performance, delivering a relaxed and life-like presentation.
