I see its twisted pair but is " unshielded" going to be a problem?
Either for vanilla DMX or for Pixelnet, unshielded should be fine.
I always go to monoprice.com for mine
Yeah, me too, except when Tiger is selling 50-foot cables for half of the Monoprice price and there's no CA tax (and shipping is reasonable).
Bought seven cables from Tiger just now, saving me $15.19 over the Monoprice price (including tax).
HTH.
