Stagg CAT6 Professional EtherCON Drum System - 50M Network Cable Reel

The Stagg CAT6 Professional EtherCON Drum System is a 50-metre network cable designed for both professional audio and standard data networking applications. It comes as a complete reel system with a durable drum for easy storage and deployment, making it particularly practical for touring musicians, live sound engineers, and fixed installation technicians who require reliable, high-bandwidth connections over considerable distances. The cable utilises CAT6 SFTP (Screened Foiled Twisted Pair) construction, which provides excellent protection against electromagnetic interference—a critical feature in environments crowded with electrical equipment. It is terminated at both ends with rugged EtherCON NE8MC connectors. These robust, locking connectors are far more durable than standard RJ45 plugs and are specifically designed for the rigours of live performance, preventing accidental disconnection. The cable supports high-speed data transfer, being compatible with networking standards up to 10 Gbit and major digital audio protocols like Dante, AES50, and MADI. This system is ideally suited for connecting digital mixing consoles, stage boxes, network switches, and other audio-over-IP equipment in studios, houses of worship, theatres, and on tour. The integrated drum allows for tidy cable management, reducing setup time and minimising the risk of tangles or damage during transport. It provides a professional, reliable link that ensures signal integrity for both mission-critical audio and data networks.
