In Reply to: I think this cable must be the "copper version." posted by Jon L on August 27, 2001 at 14:53:59:
The metal lable on the cable says Fatman 2000 Gold but there is no gold or silver to be found. There is also no vacuum. If there was a vacuum in the PVC tubes they would be pressed as flat as a board, no? The copper colored paint on the otherwise clear tubing is just for looks, it looks like a conductor with the black woven jacket covering it. Even if it "should" have some RFI/EMI shielding properties it is not connected to anything so it wouldn't work anyway.So what if it doesn't have a ground? Fine if you are making a cable for your own use but this is a commericially sold product and is flat out DEFECTIVE by elimination of the ground.
