Q2: How effective is the common mode noise rejection of the cables, can we remove the lan isolators/transformers we have used up until now? (I use a GISO-GB from Acousence just 1,5m before the streamer). Or are they still useful in their purpose to bring down the noise before the streamer?
Q3: Regarding the sturdiness of the cables, can they be run under a carpet ie. not afraid of stepping on them? For longer lengths (5m+) I've prevously been running AQ Vodkas and Supra Cat8 cables as they feel quite sturdy. What is the view on the Shunyata ethernet cables in this regard? |
FWIW, overly cautious here... I would never run any cable of any kind under a carpet, many reasons not to do that having to do with the carpet and pad becoming a massive dielectric and all that and stepping on cables is a bad idea all around even with flat cables.
Better to run them behind baseboards, in walls or between joists under subfloors.
IMHO and FWIW
