  • I Don't Have That Warm and Fuzzy Feeling
Size: 50 Foot Style: 1-Pack Pattern Name: Cable
As some reviewers have pointed out, the Title of the item says Cat6 but if you look at the description it only says "Transmits data at speeds up to 1,000 Mbps (or to 1 Gigabit per second)". Further, other reviewers have pointed out that the connectors are not Cat6 connectors, but Cat5e connectors. After doing further research let me see if I can dispel some of these inaccuracies made by these other reviewers. First, Cat6 cables are really only CERTIFIED at 1 gig (1,000 Mbps), but are able to support up to 10 gig (10,000 Mbps) at lengths 37 meters or less. Cat5e cables are really only CERTIFIED at 100 mbps, but can support up to 1 gig. Notice the use of the word "CERTIFIED" - I think this is where the confusion is regarding cable ratings. I believe this is what the manufacturer ACTUALLY means from their description stated above - that the cable is CERTIFIED at 1 gig, not that its maximum rating is 1 gig. Think of CERTIFIED as "guaranteed". The official spec for Cat5e and Cat6 GUARANTEE 100 Mbps and 1000 Mbps, respectively, but can support more (it's just not guaranteed). Secondly, the connectors on this cable are not actual Cat6 connectors (see the pictures by other reviewers), but Cat5e connectors. However, the official spec says that the different Cat6 connector is only a RECOMMENDATION, not an actual requirement for a Cat6 cable. Simply put, Cat6 cables have the option to go with Cat6 connectors or can use the Cat5e connectors as long as the cable maintains the rating of a Cat6 cable. So just because it doesn't have the official Cat6 connector, doesn't mean it's not a Cat6 cable. Making a determination by looking at the connectors is not a sure fire way to tell if a cable is Cat6. Reviewers stating it is NOT a Cat6 cable based on the connectors are incorrect. The only way to truly tell if you are getting a Cat6 cable or not is to test with a network tester - something regular home owners don't have and aren't willing to drop another $75 to $300 dollars for. Cable manufacturers are basically on the honor system when it comes to their cables. If you want to feel warm and fuzzy about your cables, then buy from a known and trusted cable provider. Monoprice comes to mind but there are many others. Thirdly, these cables are thin and while there is no AWG (American Wire Gauge) printed on the cables themselves or listed in the description, I believe these to be 28 AWG. I have numerous 24 AWG at my house and these Amazon Basics cables are clearly thinner. The higher the AWG, the thinner (or, smaller diameter) the wire. So a 24 AWG will feel "thicker" than a 28 AWG. Also, 28 AWG is a ratified spec for a network cable and was designed mostly to conserve space and increase airflow in IT rooms with crowded network racks and cable runs used by businesses with tens, hundreds or thousands of devices that need a wired connection. The regular homeowner doesn't even come close to this. However, 28 AWG has more signal resistance (the longer the wire) because it's thinner so it's recommended to keep 28 AWG wires at a length of 15 meters (roughly 50 feet) or less. Again, most homeowners probably don't have this issue and shouldn't worry about it. So, with all that being said above I ultimately returned these cables and here's why: I don't like it when I don't have that warm fuzzy about something I buy. I THINK these are Cat6 28 AWG network cables but I'm not absolutely sure. If the manufacture had listed more DETAILED specs and had a more clear description then maybe I would have kept these. Also, almost all of the network cables I buy have the the AWG listed on the cable itself along with the Cat type and some other details. These cables only have "Cat 6 Cable" listed on it. That's it. Nothing else. So if I'm trying to determine the gauge of a wire I need to know the differences between the types of AWG - something most regular people don't know and which I had to do to write this review. I'm a stickler for accuracy and being CLEAR about communicating your product. I should have read the other reviewers BEFORE I pulled the trigger on these. Instead, I got wowed by the price and didn't due my due diligence. Will these work for you? Absolutely. Before I sent these back they were working for me. Most homeowners won't even need to worry about going over 1 gig speeds so whether this is a Cat6 cable or actually a Cat5e, most won't even know the difference. But I'm OCD about this stuff so don't let my review necessarily dissuade you from buying these. Use it as guide to become better informed and to be able to discern between reviews that are accurate and reviews that are CLEARLY misinformed because they don't have all the information about cabling specs and are just shooting from the hip. ... show more

  • AMAZING price for the quality!!
Size: 10 Foot Style: 1-Pack Pattern Name: Cable
So I've prob had the same ethernet cord for the last 10 years lol and I started having problems with my game lagging really badly.. I always had lag problems cuz at&t internet sucks sorry not sorry. Anyways my dad knows a lot more about computers than I do and he brought up the eth cord. I wouldn't of even thought about it if he didn't bring it up lol. My internet still sucks with AT&T even tho the box is literally right next 2 my pc and plugged directly in my pc! I will say that I'm happy I got this new eth cord though because I instantly noticed my game running better than usual. I checked my internet speed and it's better then it used 2 be with the 10+ year old cord I've been using 😂 so I recommend this product highly and this brand! My dad says it's the only brand he buys. Also the 10 foot cord for what 7 bucks?? I got a steal with prime day but I still think it's only a cpl dollars more not on sale so still worth it! If I wasn't moving soon I would have bought the 50 foot cord that was on sale for 11 bucks! But now that I know this is a good cord that works well and feels really durable I'll definitely be buying a couple more when I'm moved!! ... show more

  • Rescued me from a bad gaming experience
Size: 10 Foot Style: 1-Pack Pattern Name: Cable
After my aunt purchased a new WiFi from a different provider, my internet connection and gaming speeds dropped tremendously. I would get many different latency drops which ruined the experience. After buying this and plugging it into our router, my gaming and browsing speeds have returned back to normal! It is a lifesaver. It comes with a decent length, about the length of a laptop charger. Thank you very much and for the price it is very affordable. I 10/10 recommend this product :) ... show more

  • Great cables that do exactly as they should! Work! Great purchase
Size: 5 Foot Style: 1-Pack Pattern Name: Cable
These cables were purchased for my laptops as well as xbox one. The cables were simple to connect, and the pins hold up very well. I have been looking for a solid place to purchase cat 5 and cat 6 cables, and am glad I finally found a product I can trust. They also test up to speeds as well. Great buy ... show more

  • Excellent. Works flawlessly.
Size: 10 Foot Style: 1-Pack Pattern Name: Cable
Currently using it on my smart tv. It makes a whole lot of difference. Even when the router sat next to my tv the wireless signal being 5ghz is nothing compared to wired connection. No more loss of signal trying to synchronize it will be robust. The audio quality will sound better oh yeah. Thank you great price and fast shipping Same day! ... show more
