Description
AudioQuest Cinnamon RJ/E Ethernet Cable
High-Performance Ethernet Cable with Solid 1.25% Silver Conductors and Variant Length Options
The AudioQuest Cinnamon RJ/E Ethernet Cable is built for customers who want a better-quality network cable for streaming audio, smart-home connections and high-performance AV systems. AudioQuest positions it around solid 1.25% silver conductors, high-density polyethylene insulation, gold-plated nickel terminations with 100% shield coverage, and direction-controlled conductors.
This is the kind of cable that makes sense in systems where network stability and cleaner signal handling matter. AudioQuest specifically frames the Cinnamon RJ/E as a step up for digital music, streaming and networked AV use, while keeping the build practical and easy to install.
Available Variant Lengths
Choose the right length for the install
For a Shopify parent-product setup, this page works cleanly as a variant-length model.
Current documented lengths for Cinnamon RJ/E are:
- 0.75m
- 1.5m
- 3m
- 5m
- 8m
- 12m
That gives the range enough flexibility for:
- Short streamer-to-switch runs
- Router-to-music-server connections
- Rack-to-TV networking
- Longer custom-install Ethernet runs in AV systems
Solid 1.25% Silver Conductors
Better conductor quality for high-frequency signal transfer
AudioQuest states that Cinnamon RJ/E uses solid 1.25% silver conductors. The company says solid conductors help eliminate strand-interaction distortion, while silver-plated conductors are especially useful for high-frequency applications like Ethernet audio.
- Cleaner high-frequency signal transfer
- Lower distortion from strand interaction
- Better suitability for serious streaming and digital audio systems
- More deliberate cable design for AV use
High-Density Polyethylene Insulation
Geometry stability matters too
AudioQuest lists high-density polyethylene as the insulation material and says it is selected to help minimise distortion and preserve dynamics inside the cable structure.
That matters because Ethernet cable performance is not only about conductor metal. The geometry and insulation around that conductor also affect how well the signal is preserved.
Gold-Plated Nickel Terminations with 100% Shield Coverage
Practical connection quality and shielding
AudioQuest lists the Cinnamon RJ/E with gold-plated nickel terminations and 100% shield coverage. The brand also calls out its noise-dissipation approach and direction-controlled conductors as part of the cable’s performance design.
- Better shielding integrity
- Cleaner termination quality
- Reduced susceptibility to unwanted noise
- A more robust and purposeful connection for AV systems
Direction-Controlled Conductors
Built with signal flow in mind
AudioQuest specifically lists direction-controlled conductors as a feature of the Cinnamon RJ/E. That is part of the company’s established cable design approach and is intended to support cleaner noise behaviour across the cable run.
Built for Streaming and Networked AV Systems
More than just a generic network patch lead
AudioQuest’s own product copy positions Cinnamon RJ/E for streaming playlists, movies, gaming sessions and smart-home reliability.
- Music streamers
- Network players
- Routers and switches in AV systems
- Smart-home hubs
- Gaming and media devices connected over Ethernet

The Audio Experts Take
Cinnamon RJ/E makes sense for customers who want a better network cable without disappearing into the deep end of cable pricing. The solid 1.25% silver conductors, full shield coverage and direction-controlled design give it a stronger hi-fi and AV brief than a throwaway patch lead.
As a variant product, it is easy to understand and easy to sell. Pick the length that suits the install, and you have a neater way to cover streamers, switches, routers and networked AV gear with one parent listing.
