[QUOTE="Henry, post: 463657, member: 14394"] ^^^^ What Rodney said. To understand that, you must go delve deeper into transmission theory. If I remember correctly from my days at the Dept of Post and Telecomms Colledge, you have to terminate the cable with the correct impedance, else the mismatching of the impedance will cause some of the signal to be reflected back to the source. It's made worse by your cable that is too short. Jozua, you must remember that you cannot just apply the same logic to digital cables that you do with analogue cables. Oh, and with regards to optical cables: expensive optical cables are just that; expensive. :sh1tstirrer: :popcorn: [/QUOTE]
