Cordial ECLCPDS2CC - 2m SPDIF RCA Digital Coaxial Cable
The Cordial ECLCPDS2CC is a high-quality cable specifically designed for transmitting S/PDIF digital audio and composite video signals. At 2 meters long, it offers the flexibility needed to connect equipment in a wide variety of setups, whether in a home studio, a hi-fi system, or a home cinema installation. Manufactured by Cordial, a brand renowned for its commitment to quality and reliability, this cable guarantees pure, interference-free signal transmission thanks to its precision construction and premium materials.
The key to its performance lies in its strict adherence to a 75-ohm impedance, a fundamental requirement for digital signal transmission. This feature minimizes timing errors (jitter) and signal degradation, ensuring that the audio or video reaches its destination with maximum fidelity, just as it was originally intended. Its robust RCA connectors, with gold-plated contacts, provide a secure connection and excellent conductivity, preventing corrosion and guaranteeing a long lifespan.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between this cable and a standard stereo audio RCA cable?
The main difference is impedance. This cable is designed to have an impedance of 75 ohms, which is the standard for S/PDIF and video digital signals. An analog RCA cable does not guarantee this impedance, which can cause errors and loss of quality (jitter) in the digital signal.
Can I use this cable for an analog audio signal, such as from a record player?
Yes, technically it will work for an analog audio signal. However, it is optimized for digital signals. For analog stereo connections, it is recommended to use a pair of RCA cables specifically designed for that purpose for best performance.
Is this cable compatible with high-resolution audio signals?
Yes, the S/PDIF format is capable of transmitting uncompressed stereo PCM audio, as well as compressed audio formats like Dolby Digital and DTS. This cable is perfectly capable of handling these signals without any loss of quality.
