Ethercon really is a fantastic connector. I had a client who were working on industrial systems that lived in harsh environments, and recommended it to them. They ignored me on their first model, and used the connector quite successfully on rev 2 after they had a ridiculous number of field failures using normal Ethernet jacks. My wife does AV production work and loves them too. Plus, in a pinch, you can just use a regular old Walmart Ethernet cable. Really handy to have a fallback (unlike e.g. XLR, where you're trying to find a pro audio shop)
