Original Components
The KLARK TEKNIK NCAT5E-50M is
exclusively designed utilising Neutrik
and Schill components, ensuring
dependable performance whenever
CAT5 based connections are required
for mobile pro audio applications.
Its ruggedised etherFLEX cable with
etherCON connectors ideally lends
itself to medium and long cable runs
of AES50, Dante, EtherSound, CobraNet, AVB audio networking or general
purpose Ethernet remote control.

NCAT5E-50M
Tour-Grade Ruggedised and Screened Cat5e
Network Cable (50 Metre Reel)
Flexibility
The EtherFLEX ruggedised cable structure includes 4 pairs of stranded wires AWG 26, able to
withstand repeated exing and stress much better than solid wires. The wires are surrounded by
conductive foil and additional braided shielding for consistently high rejection ratios against EMI,
RFand ESD. Its inner FRNC jacket is separated from the rugged outer FLEX PUR jacket by a thin layer
of talc powder, for improved cable handling properties.
But the NCAT5E-50M is not only exible in terms of its superior mechanical properties—it also can be
deployed in many situations. If a single 50 m run is not su cient, you can extend two cables to 100m
using the optional Neutrik NE8FF connector. Simply unwind the cable from the drum. If you need
AES50 connections exceeding the typical 100 metre limit of CAT5 Ethernet, KLARK TEKNIK’s DN9610
Extenders or DN9620 Repeaters provide a very cost e ective solution.
Drum Spooled
We consider Schill cable drums a de facto industry standard for European pro audio cable drums.
The unbreakable synthetic rubber material is as strong and resilient as steel, but more durable and
much lighter in weight. The speciality material can withstand temperatures from -20°C to +70°C
and is resistant to chemicals, oils and petrol. The integrated adjustable break stops any inadvertent
drum rotation. A 2 m cable length is wound on the auxiliary spool for easily connecting the drum to
the mixing console. Rubber caps on both etherCON connectors cover terminals during setup and
transport and hook-and-loop fasteners secure cable ends during transportation.
