Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

This is heavy-gauge cat6+ cable. It has a cross-shaped plastic separator that runs the entire length of the cable. The stiffness of the heavy-gauge conductors makes it simplicity itself to get the cable properly inserted into an rj45 plug.

The only downside is amazon's packing techniques. Cat6 has more twists which may have better performance but in real world time you won't notice a difference. Just keep in mind the cable length limitations.

You will need fish-tape to guide or pull through wall cavities.

The od is a tad larger than cat 5e so it is a bit snug in the rj45 connector. I actually think this makes it more sturdy.



Cons

Functionally the cable is fine, but yellow and orange are not bright. Internet searches lead you to amazon website and give you the impression that it is what you're getting. What a waste.

A standard wire sheathe remover ends up clipping the inside pairs causes them to break. No tape, only tucked-in edges for heavy cable. Had to manually feed out cable from bundle and fight tangles.

Nice and thick like premium cat6 even though this is much cheaper

Packaging/appearance


Solid cable doesnt crimp or snag pulled out of the box really fluidly speeds are amazing


Additionally it was easy to mistakenly not push the jack far enough into the crimper so that it would not work


The coil inside the carton either had kinks or got kinks when pulled out of the box

    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Be sure to get cat6 connectors and expect this cable to be snug because of its thick gauge

    Just be aware the rating is only good for runs on the same floor
