AudioQuest FORESTCOAX1POINT5M 4.9 Feet Forest Digital Coax Cable
Features
- Solid 0.5% Silver Conductors
Solid conductors eliminate strand-interaction distortion and reduce jitter. Solid silver-plated conductors are excellent for very high-frequency applications. These signals, being such a high frequency, travel almost exclusively on the surface of the conductor. As the surface is made of high-purity silver, the performance is very close to that of a solid silver cable, but priced much closer to solid copper cable. This is an incredibly cost effective way of manufacturing very high-quality digital coax cables - Hard-Cell Foam Insulation
Hard-Cell Foam insulation is used exclusively in most of AudioQuest’s video and digital audio cables. Similar to Foamed-PE, it is nitrogen injected to create air pockets. ‘Hard’ foam is used because the stiffness of the material allows the conductors in the cable to maintain the same relationship with each other along the full length of the cable, thus ensuring that the characteristic impedance of the cable is consistent - 100% Shield Coverage (Foil + Tinner Braid)
Shielding always plays an important role in any cable design, but the shield on coax interconnect plays an especially important role because it functions not only as a shield but a return path as well. Because of this, AudioQuest pays special attention to the shield’s metal quality and the fabrication techniques as both will affect the sound and the picture - Metal-Layer Noise-Dissipation System (NDS)
100% shield coverage is easy. Preventing captured RF Interference from modulating the equipment’s ground reference requires AQ’s Noise-Dissipation System. Noise-Dissipation System prevents a significant amount of RFI from reaching the equipment’s ground plane - Terminations

Frequently Asked Questions
-
The conductor is made of solid 0.5% silver-plated copper, which offers excellent performance for very high-frequency signals by allowing them to travel almost exclusively on the silver-plated surface. This design provides near solid silver cable performance at a cost closer to solid copper.
-
The cable uses Hard-Cell Foam insulation, a nitrogen-injected foam that creates air pockets. This hard foam maintains consistent spacing and relationship between conductors along the cable, ensuring uniform characteristic impedance for optimal signal transfer.
-
The cable features 100% shield coverage composed of foil and a tinned copper braid. This shield functions both as an electromagnetic interference barrier and as a return path, contributing to improved sound and picture quality.
-
It incorporates a Metal-Layer Noise-Dissipation System (NDS), which prevents captured radio frequency interference from modulating the equipment's ground reference. This system significantly reduces RF noise transmission to connected devices.
-
The cable features cold-welded, gold-plated terminations, which provide excellent corrosion resistance and ensure a reliable, high-quality connection with minimal signal loss.
