Pro Audio Support

Q:
What's the maximum length of the Cat5e cable used to connect the EMU 1820 or 1820m PCI card to the AudioDock (breakout box)? Can I use a standard Cat5 ethernet cable?
 
A:
The recommended maximum cable length is 10 meters, and it is recommended to use the included cable. Standard ethernet cables are unshielded and should not be used because they can subject your EMU soundcard to RF emissions.
