Post your PEDAL BOARD pics here.
Those are Belden 9463, designed for Allen-Bradley's industrial automation networks, RIO and DH+. Out in industry, they just call it "blue hose". I used it as a joke, because it's been ubiquitous throughout my engineering career. Anybody in the automation business from about 1980 onward knows blue hose on sight. If you ever had a couple of pieces of equipment and you didn't know if they were going to talk, as long as they both had a blue hose connection, you knew things would be alright. Also, I get scrap lengths for free, and what's scrap in a panel shop or factory can make a LOT of 5" patch cables.
It's getting to be obsolete these days, finally being phased out and replaced with Ethernet. It's really overqualified as guitar cable; twisted pair in triple shielding, but it's basically indestructible and I smile at the inside joke whenever I look down.
Not to mention the fact that I'm apparently the only person who still uses a pedalboard.

Once again here you go.
