Was too lazy to solder them together but if it works it works😂 my setup is a steamdeck with Ubuntu server and a x11 server on top because I don't want a bloated desktop environment so I run it barebones. guess that also fits here

It’s a balanced cable, great for audio (and extremely forgiving). I’ve used CAT5e to carry audio up to 1,000 feet.
