Chord Ethernet Cables

Chord Ethernet cables, often referred to as streaming cables, are designed specifically for high-performance audio systems, helping deliver cleaner, more stable digital signals between network devices. Manufactured in the UK by Chord Company, these cables are engineered to reduce noise and improve signal consistency when connecting streamers, servers and network switches.

Used between routers, switches and hi-fi streamers, they play an important role in maintaining the quality of digital audio data before it reaches your DAC or amplifier.

Engineered for Audio Streaming

Unlike standard network cables, Chord streaming cables are designed with audio performance in mind, featuring:

- High-quality oxygen-free copper conductors
- Individually shielded twisted pairs to reduce interference
- Additional overall shielding to minimise high-frequency noise
- Precision RJ45 connectors with gold-plated contacts

This helps reduce unwanted noise from network devices, which can affect overall system performance and clarity

Higher-end designs also incorporate proprietary conductor geometry and upgraded materials to further improve signal coherence and musical detail

Designed for Streaming Systems

Chord Ethernet cables are intended for use in modern hi-fi setups, including:

- Network streamers and music servers
- Routers, switches and network bridges
- Multi-room and streaming-based systems

While standard Ethernet cables are designed primarily for data transfer, Chord’s streaming cables are optimised for reducing noise within audio systems, helping preserve timing and detail in digital playback.

Key benefits:

- Designed and manufactured by Chord Company
- Optimised for audio streaming rather than general networking
- Reduces noise and interference in digital systems
- Improves clarity, timing and overall musical detail
- Available in multiple performance levels and lengths

A specialist upgrade for streaming systems, Chord Ethernet cables provide a more refined and consistent connection, helping your digital sources perform at their best.
