Avoid those cheap cables like the plague.
Best is to buy 100m reel of studio quality mic cable
and a whole load of jacks. Then make your own cables
in any useful sizes you like.
I never have a mains hum problem (YET) with 
good quality audio cables, even when all the cables are 
bundled together in one big audio/mains heap.
