Cordial ECLCSE50-NN7-SD - 50-meter CAT7 EtherCon Network Reel
The Cordial ECLCSE50-NN7-SD is a professional network cabling solution designed for the most demanding applications in live production environments, events, studios, and touring. This system consists of a 50-meter high-performance Category 7 (CAT7) network cable, pre-installed on a robust Schill reel and terminated with Neutrik etherCON connectors. This combination ensures reliable, fast, and secure data transmission, even under the most adverse conditions, offering a plug-and-play solution that saves time and minimizes points of failure.
The core of this product is Cordial's high-quality data cable, which meets CAT7 specifications, enabling data transmission speeds of up to 10 Gbps with a bandwidth of up to 1000 MHz. Its double-shielded S/FTP construction (shielded twisted pairs with an overall mesh) provides exceptional protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI), ensuring a clean and stable signal, crucial for critical applications such as digital audio networks (Dante, EtherSound™), DMX-over-IP lighting control, or high-definition video transmission.
Durability and ease of use are key to the design of this product. The Neutrik etherCON connectors, a professional industry standard, feature a robust metal housing and a secure locking system that protects the internal RJ45 connector from physical damage, dust, and moisture, ensuring a reliable connection every time. The cable comes mounted on a heavy-duty Schill reel, designed for quick, tangle-free deployment and retrieval, optimizing efficiency during setup and teardown.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does S/FTP shielding mean?
S/FTP (Screened Foiled Twisted Pair) means that each pair of twisted conductors is wrapped in a metal foil (FTP), and all pairs are further covered by an overall metal mesh (S). This double shielding provides the best possible protection against noise and electromagnetic interference.
Are etherCON connectors compatible with standard RJ45 ports?
Yes, the Neutrik etherCON connector is designed to be compatible with standard RJ45 connectors. The etherCON housing snaps into etherCON sockets for a secure connection, but the internal RJ45 connector can plug into any standard network port.
Is this cable suitable for outdoor use?
While the construction is robust, its suitability for prolonged outdoor use depends on the specific cable jacket type (PVC, PUR). This model is primarily designed for mobile and touring use, which involves temporary exposure to various conditions, but for permanent outdoor installations, it is recommended to check the jacket material specifications.
