One thing that should be noted is that this cable is CAT5 "E". There is no mention of the E rating in the description, but a closer look at the photos you will see this printed on the cable. I urge Thomann to add this to the description throughout all the CAT5 cables as it does make a difference, especially with Yamaha Ethersound & RIO stage boxes.
The cable is high quality, the drum is fine, although it is PVC.
