What are the differences between the different SuperCAT cables?

Briefly, there are a number of differences between the 4 cables we currently offer. 

The SuperCAT cable features a special jacket that makes it durable as well as flexible, making it easy to wind. It is an S/UTP cable and certified to work with all SoundTools products.

The SuperCAT Sound cable features individually shielded twisted pairs as well as a dedicated drain wire for each pair. This allows the SuperCAT Sound cable to be terminated directly to XLR connectors or be used like a traditional CAT cable. SuperCAT Sound is a U/FTP cable with very high durability and pull strength.

The SuperCAT 7 cable features the speed of a CAT7 cable with the flexibility of the original SuperCAT cable. With both an outer shield and shielded twisted pairs, the SuperCAT 7 is ready for the harshest signal conditions. SuperCAT 7 is an S/FTP cable and is perfect for modern digital consoles as well as SoundTools products.

The SuperCAT XM cable is the latest cable from SoundTools and is designed for fast data over long cable runs. This cable works with AES50 at and over 100 meters and is the go-to for digital signals over 100-meter runs.
