@aurora manual MDX/crossover cable in less than 5 seconds!

There is a reason the top of the line USB/Thunderbolt cables use miniature coax.
Okay, now I got an even more cursed idea: Ethernet over USB-C, but as in using only passive adapters.
-
I wouldn't be surprised if this goes far beyond the typical standards because XLR is shielded Coax which, I think, is superior to S/FTP.
The problem is probably the connector, not the cable length itself.
@simon_m @wolf480pl @aurora Not just the shielding, but it's also a balanced line: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balanced_line

Yes, I meant balanced line. I couldn't remember the (English) term for this, so I just called it shielding :D
That should *significantly* reduce the noise level, the question that remains is the resistance.

The German Wikipedia goes a little bit more in-depth with the graphics:

@aurora this means you could run Art-Net over an audio snake... >:)

@simon_m @wolf480pl @aurora Good microphone cables are “star quad” (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_quad_cable). I don't think I've ever seen coax XLR.

@aurora haha 🤣

@aurora they asked if they could
But not if they should
And the one person who asked "why" was spartan kicked into the well in the center of town -

@aurora are there preinstalled shrink tubes on the cable in case it breaks somewhere or sth?!
If yes that's sooo good, I wish more cables had that

@aurora this rules -

@aurora this looks nicely built. The adapters I build look less shiny

@aurora thanks i hate it

@henry_null according to the manual those are intended for labeling

@wolf480pl @simon_m @rojun @aurora slightly related stupid idea is USB through ethernet cable. I can confirm it does not work well, of course I tried it. https://www.ondrovo.com/a/20220215-sdr-nooelec/

@aurora is that a fidget cube on the left and if yes, is it mandatory for this setup?
(in all seriousness: wow, so cool!)

@aurora are those off the shelf adapters that are usually used to do the exact opposite? (I know, CAT and Ethernet are not the same, but for the sake of this shitpost I guess it's fine to say so).

@simon_m @wolf480pl @aurora also, if you use XLR cables for DMX, you’ll get even better results than with standard XLR for analog audio, since the XLR for digital purposes usually needs far better shielding and signal integrity as well.

@aurora@queer-lexikon.net I mean... XLR is just coax cable. Ethernet is made to run on coax cables.
This is just Ethernet over four twisted pairs.
