LUNA CABLES ORANGE Series Neo Vintage Copper Conductor Ethernet Cable

Product Concept

With the spread of network players and streamers, Ethernet cables have become an important signal path alongside USB in digital audio. However, many commercially available LAN cables do not consider measures against vibration and noise for audio use, and high-frequency noise from network devices may affect sound quality.

The Luna Cables ORANGE Ethernet uses 8 twisted 22AWG LCNV (Luna Cable Neo Vintage) copper conductors formed into pairs by hand, with a tin-plated copper braid shield to block external noise. The connectors are modified from German Telegärtner RJ45 connectors, which have high reliability for communication use, and all contact points are hand-soldered. This cable adheres to the Luna Cables philosophy of natural materials from the entrance of network audio.

Luna Cables: Handmade cables born from the hands of craftsmen in Montreal

Luna Cables is a handmade audio cable brand based in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. All products are produced in small quantities in their workshop, with each cable finished by the hands of craftsmen. The meticulous care and attention to materials, which mass-produced products cannot provide, support the musicality of Luna Cables.

■ LCNV Conductor (Luna Cable Neo Vintage): A unique conductor created by vintage processing machines

LCNV is Luna Cable's proprietary copper conductor produced using its own formulation and manufacturing method. By deliberately using vintage wire processing machines instead of cutting-edge CNC machines, we produce conductors with unique crystal structures and flexibility that modern precision machinery cannot replicate. This approach of "bringing the goodness of the old" to modern hi-fi is the core of Luna's sound.

■ Waxed Cottondielectric: Vibration control and musicality provided by natural materials

LCNV also features waxed cottondielectricIt is covered as such.dielectricThis term refers to the electrical properties of the coating material covering the conductor; the lower the material's dielectric constant, the less unnecessary interference there is on the signal waveform. Cotton soaked in wax has a lower dielectric constant compared to plastic materials, minimizing signal interference while also providing high vibration control performance. It absorbs fine noise from external vibrations, enhancing sound focus while achieving smooth and rich musical expression without feeling oppressive.

■ Uncompromising craftsmanship finishing every contact point by hand

All Luna Cables cables are hand-soldered at each connection point (All connections hand-soldered). The precise contact quality that cannot be achieved through mass mechanical production directly affects signal transparency and long-term reliability. This meticulous process is one of the reasons Luna Cables stands shoulder to shoulder with top audio brands.

■ Cotton Jacket: Unified from inside to outside with natural materials

The exterior features a flexible and easy-to-handle cotton jacket. It offers moderate flexibility and sound absorption that synthetic resin tubes lack, suppressing unnecessary tension and vibration transmission during installation. Luna's philosophy of thoroughly unifying materials from inside to outside using natural materials is reflected here as well.

Main Features

• LCNV 1 × 22AWG (7 × 30AWG) / Polarity × 8 pieces, hand twist pair configuration:Eight 22AWG LCNV conductors are made by twisting seven 30AWG tin-plated copper wires, and artisans twist them by hand to form pairs. Subtle tension adjustments that cannot be achieved with mechanical twisting contribute to noise resistance and signal stability.
• waxed cottondielectric：Low-dielectric waxed cotton coats each conductor, suppressing electrical interference between conductors. It supports the signal quality required for Ethernet transmission from a material perspective.
• Tin-plated copper braid shield:Blocks external electromagnetic noise and high-frequency noise from network devices, protecting delicate digital signal paths.
• Telegärtner RJ45 connector (modified and hand-soldered):A modified Telegärtner RJ45 connector, made by the German telecommunications infrastructure connector manufacturer Telegärtner, is used. By hand-soldering connectors with high contact precision and durability, the contact quality is maximized.
