Monoprice 102681 3ft RG6 Digital Coaxial Audio Cable

The Monoprice 102681 is a 3-foot RG6 digital coaxial audio cable built for transmitting S/PDIF digital audio between components such as CD players, media streamers, DACs, and AV receivers. It uses a 97% oxygen-free copper conductor paired with double copper braid shielding, which work together to maintain signal integrity and minimize interference from nearby electronics. The gold-plated RCA male connectors on each end resist oxidation over time, ensuring a reliable connection that won't degrade with repeated plugging and unplugging.

A notable feature of this cable is its CL2 fire-safety rating, which permits in-wall installation — a useful advantage for home theater builds where a clean, hidden cable run is preferred. The rubber-covered molded connector housings add durability and strain relief at the plug ends, reducing the chance of damage from bending or pulling. At 75 ohms impedance and 22 pF per foot capacitance, the cable meets standard specifications for digital coaxial audio, and it can also serve as a composite video or line-level RCA cable in a pinch. Monoprice's lifetime warranty on all cables rounds out the package.
