Re: source for shorter 1/8" 3.5mm cables?

2007-07-30 by vcovcfvca

Hi, 

This may not help you, but I've just been making up a batch of my own 
cables of various lengths in the following colours: Red, Green, blue, 
Yellow, White. I was lucky enough to get an offcut of surplus RGB-HV 
cable loom (computer/video people may know of this), which is 
basically a plastic sheath containing 5 separate coloured cables. 
Each cable within the sheath is a centre core copper conductor 
surrounded by an insulator and then a braided wire shield with a 
coloured plastic outer layer (ie: like a mini or narrow gauge coaxial 
cable)- perfect for patch cables and highly durable as well. I'm very 
happy with the results so far. They even "feel" good to patch! I 
recommend it for anyone who can find a loom like this.  

By the way, I'm new here so hello all!

Regards, 

Adam
