    A different approach for Cat5E - Running Audio Signal


    Most of audio engineers and amateur audio enthusiasts use some sort of out board gear in order to get sound, or create sound. It is all connected via cables; most of these cables are ran through XLR balanced mic level audio signals. So why not try Cat5E? Since balanced audio helps cancel out much of the interference that would be caused by things like radio waves and power lines, shielded twisted pair cabling (like that found in Cat5e—or 'Category 5e'—cable) is not a bad choice for balanced audio signals. Granted I wouldnt use it for extremely high end studios that are using vintage gear such as a Neve console or an SSL. But for getting a lot of length for a very cheap buy, I think this is worth mentioning.

    So what type of Cat5E Cable should I use?

    How To Setup A Home Network


    If you have multiple computers in your home, networking them is a great idea! There are several big advantages to setting up an in-home network:  
    • If one of the computers has a printer attached, then the other computer can print to it over the network.
    • If one of the computers has certain files on it, someone on the other computer can access those files over the network rather than having to copy them onto a disk or memory stick.
    • If you like playing multi-user computer games that have network capabilities built in, then two people can play these games together over the network.
    • If you connect to the Internet with one of the computers, the other computer can use that same connection over the network. So one computer can connect to the Internet with a modem and the other computer will route its Internet traffic through that single connection.
      Networking PCs has gotten easier
