Image: Supra Cat7+ FRHF Network Patch Cable

This is an audiophile-quality option I'd really like to try. The Swedish-made Supra Cat7+ FRHF Network Patch Cable (CAT 7+ STP PATCH) is an unusual Cat7 cable design in that it features larger 22 AWG conductors rather than smaller 26 AWG conductors, superior foamed PE dielectric rather than what's likely PVC or such in the case of typical products, and opposed to solid PE in the case of an AudioQuest Cat7 Ethernet cable. Furthermore, the 22 AWG foamed PE dielectric conductors are solid core bare copper rather than a stranded design, and it does not involve (unwanted in my case) silver plating such as the AudioQuest products feature. Also to note is the Supra connector is not molded; it features a removable plastic insulator. It's pretty much what seems to be an ideal audiophile-quality design available at a price that while not cheap, it won't break the bank.

Very good reports regarding the SUPRA Cat7+ are found on the web, including comparisons with an AudioQuest Cat7 cable.
