The cables provide digital transmission of data signals and can be terminated with RJ45 or Neutrik etherCON connectors.

Both have a maximum temperature rating of 167 degrees Fahrenheit (75 degrees Celsius) and -40 degrees Fahrenheit (-40 degrees Celsius).

"The new DuraShield 5EXR and DuraShield cables are perfect for deployable use and are designed to be extremely durable, as they are water, petro-chemical/solvent, impact and abrasion resistant," says Darius Seabaugh, vice president of marketing for RHC Holdings. "Both cables are ideal for various applications as they can handle data, DMX and audio, making them a great solution for short- and long-range Dante(tm) or other networked-audio applications."
