Fatman 2000 Gold is copper

205.188.198.157

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.
