This D'n'A series (Digital and Analogue) cable is designed to be suitable for both digital and analogue audio signals, with an impedance of 100 ohms which has been proven to be suitable for AES/EBU digital audio as well as analogue microphone and line level signals.
This cable is constructed in a similar way to the easy-strip FST, but has changes to improve the flexibility, which may be desired in some applications. The insulation has a slightly reduced wall thickness, and a longer lay length of the twist than FST, giving a single, long length strip. The overall jacket is a soft PVC with semi-matt finish. Conductor sizes are the same in both FST and FST-F.
