It's just one cable! Whether it's double shielded? I do not know, I did not cut.
Quality of the plug can be reached; much better than the 2 times overpainted junction box at my house ...
For me, the cable is also just rum and I prefer because not ever turn, so I do not know how many fastening cycles survived. For normal use, it is enough surely.
At 5m length and the digital signals can simply no longer needs as well. So who else can do without all the special cable with gold and x-screenings, which will be satisfied with this cable.
