RJ45 Technical Ground Tri-braid cable
Russ has updated his Grounding Guide with information on how to ground equipment that is double insulated which tends to be common amongst streaming systems.
Double Insulated equipment – usually denoted by the symbol below– may not get the full benefit of RF grounding by connecting our grounding wires to the casework in the conventional way using our chassis tags or Chassis Ground Banana Adaptors… with double insulated equipment, you may get further benefits by grounding the components with these specific ground cables. If your component uses an external power supply with a barrel, jack style plug then this is also double insulated.

Available made with Kimber’s woven cable, the new RJ45 Technical Ground Tri-braid cable should be fitted to an empty RJ45 socket on the double insulated equipment, such as a Blu-ray player or TV in place of connecting to the casework. The other end connects to the other component in the usual fashion.
Using the RJ45 Technical Ground Tri-braid cable with standard (non double-insulated) equipment. You may get further benefits by using the RJ45 Technical Ground Tri-braid cable on standard, earthed equipment. We say may, because the only way to find out if there are further benefits is to try it! Listening is your best bet – if it sounds better with the additional ground in place, it is better.
What can I connect to?
The ground of the RJ45 Technical Ground Tri-braid cable is connected to the metal shield of the plug only. By design ethernet cables are not internally grounded, so there isn’t a pin that's dedicated to ground to connect to. Using the RJ45 Technical Ground Tri-braid cable on unshielded (usually plastic) sockets will have no effect. If your equipment has a metal RJ45 socket, then grounding with this cable will be beneficial.
Termination
The RJ45 Technical Ground Tri-braid cable is always terminated at one end with a single HDMI connector. We can terminate the RJ45 Technical Ground Tri-braid cable with a variety connectors shown below, so if there isn't an option listed, please contact us and we'll do our best to add it.

"Finishing Touch"
Bought this to ground my English Electric 8 switch to my plug in RF Router (see my separate review). The lift in performance it gives is significant with a reduced noise floor, greater realism and a more relaxed detailed presentation. Well worth it.My thanks to Peter Bevin for his advice on connection.

"Winnnernerner !!!"
I already have RA signature cords on a toblerone with various fuses. I recently purchased the plugin router and Tech weave which are fantastic and really bring to life your system. Thought i would try the RJ45 tech grnd as nothing to loose and everything to gain if its anything like RA products. Well i didn't expect that ! It went from a shy retiring cable to a highly resolving intimate yet more powerful cable all within a few daysand has opened up my music to be heard all over again as it delivers a new perspective on my musical collection. I stream from a simple Yamaha streamer but it sounds fantastic. Great Job RA & Team.
