- bombcar 5y ago$30k a kilometer is not bad all things considered.
- mschuster91 5y agoOr 30$ a meter. Cheaper than Thunderbolt cables, I'm really amazed especially how much actual human effort is required in cable-laying.
- ClumsyPilot 5y agoThats very surprising inded, i shluld switch to using marine cables in my setup
- bombcar 5y agoThe cable may be cheap but the adapters are gonna kill ya. :)
- missedthecue 5y agoWow I would have guessed 10x that
- TaylorAlexander 5y agoThat would make that single cable 1/3 the price of the LHC. I’m glad it doesn’t cost that much!
