CHORD CLEARWAY USB 1 MT

Pre owned.

USB-A to USB-B cable, 1 m length.

Digital cable designed to connect digital audio sources to DACs, ideal for Hi-Fi systems using computers, streamers and other equipment with a USB connection. Developed from the previous C-USB model, it introduces improvements to the shielding structure with the aim of reducing interference and ensuring a reliable connection for digital signal transmission.

The shielding structure combines a double foil layer with a high-density braid, helping protect the signal from electromagnetic interference and limit interference between connected components. The silver-plated oxygen-free copper (OFC) conductors are designed to ensure efficient signal transmission, while the overall construction addresses the requirements for digital connection integrity and stability.

The connectors feature gold-plated pins and a zinc alloy housing that contributes to shielding the connection points. The strain-relief system is designed to provide good mechanical resistance without excessively compressing the cable, which retains sufficient flexibility for installation behind furniture and inside equipment racks.

The USB-A/USB-B configuration allows, for example, a computer or compatible source to be connected to an external DAC. The cable has a manufacturer-specified connection direction, from the rectangular USB-A connector to the trapezoidal USB-B connector. It is available in different lengths to suit installation requirements in home audio systems and listening setups.
