Furutech LAN-8 NCF High-End Audio Ethernet Cable

Furutech Nano Crystal² Formula

Furutech’s LAN-8 NCF features a connector shell incorporating the company’s own Nano Crystal² Formula (NCF). NCF uses a special crystalline material that Furutech claims has two ‘active’ properties.

First, they say, it generates negative ions that eliminate static. Second, it converts thermal energy into far-infrared. Furutech combines this material with nano sized ceramic particles and carbon powder for their additional ‘piezoelectric effect’ damping properties.

The brand claim that the resulting Nano Crystal² Formula is the “ultimate electrical and mechanical damping material”.

Category 8 Cable

Furutech says that the LAN-8 NCF also features improved specifications for crosstalk and system noise when compared with a Category 7 cable. This is achieved through a combination of a ‘twisted pair’ design with an increased number of twists per unit length, plus additional shielding for each individual wire pair and for the cable as a whole.
