  • This might be my de facto cable. And their email newsletters have been informative and worth it too.
Size: 1000ft Style: Unshielded Color: black
After looking around for a good while trying to find a good balance between price and quantity, I found a few that were a little bit cheaper. but I was impressed with everything else I've gotten so far from this brand, I figured with the expectation of quality I wouldn't have anything to worry about. The packaging was nice simple nothing fancy and as I was saying about the price it wasn't that much more than what I was gonna go with but they also weren't on the high end of the spectrum of other things. which made them in my price range. I've had my hands on a fair bit of cabling that's been done wrong or is cheap and I'm impressed with this stuff. I got a spool of shielded cable and the connectors to run a few connections at my local 1920s movie theater from the stage to the projection booth. I figured long runs in an old building it would be better to future proof things with the shielded cable all the way through. plus there are various things in the audio realm that can take a vantage or even require shielded cabling. I have 2 runs in and I need to get to the other side of the room and do 4 more. One side has 2 Jack's for video and audio/data. With the plan to do 4 more on the other side to mirror that or be read patchable in the back corner for guests to set up with 2 spares for digital snakes. My only complaint with the cable is the shielded stuff it's thick. Struggling to find a good way to secure it to walls etc. the cable stapler I bought was not up to the task and the closest thing I found was those noble clips for coaxial cable but those didn't hold very well. I'm going to try the other side with the screw in clips that hold zip ties. Something that the company could probably look at making is a decent cable stapler that's compatible with their cables. I didn't want one of those with the plastic bar as I've had to remove those and there a pain, the simple wire loop is so much better it's almost like maybe the phone company figured out some thing Wayback when. As far as the cable goes I've had no problem with it and it comes with a nice box and wooden cable reel which I so can't wait to repurpose. Speaking more about the unshielded outdoor stuff I've used it in a few places so far and I bought the box at just the right time, it's been so handy. It's not as thick as the shielded stuff so it's just about works with my stapler. I really need to find a good article explaining the different riser indoor outdoor stuff I suspect they probably have a nice blog posting on that I just haven't been able to read it. I actually really like the outdoor stuff indoors because the jacket is more durable it's less susceptible to damage running along walls or in short chunks of ceilings. Plus being black it blends in really nicely with older historic buildings with wood interiors like the restaurant that's just as old as the movie theater that I've been working at. ... show more

  • Good stuff. Worked great for me.
Size: 500ft Style: Unshielded Color: black
I bought this to run to my workshop behind my house. I recently ran power out there and buried also conduit for future installation of cat5e cable. This whole Covid-19 deal accelerated my plans as I finally decided to work from home even though I work at an oil and gas related company which is definitely essential. It was a tough decision for me because there weren’t many reviews for this cable, and there are a lot of competitors on amazon for cat5e cable. Rest assured this is good stuff. High twist rate on the pairs, which means good resistance to electrical noise. Wire comes spooked on a nice wooden spool (see my attached photo). Published Cat5e distance limits of reliable operation is ~300ft or about 100m. My run is about 275, and 150ft of that is buried on separate conduit running right next to my buried power conduit and power wire. So... I had concerns about reliable signal with my set up. NO ISSUES! Had my wife help me pull the wire (we used pulling soap which I highly recommend for long runs with bends in your conduit), Routed the side of my house and through my attic to our main internet modem. Terminated the ends with high quality “Panduit Gigabit TX5e” fittings which are tool-less connectors. Works like a charm. Since it is hardwired from end it end, my connection is much faster than WiFi. I may install a WiFi router in my workshop later, but this is excellent for now. Cable is flexible, seems sturdy, and pulls easily. Don’t hesitate. Note: this is NOT gell-filled cable. The other pro of this cable is that the seller offered it up in a 590ft spool option does I didn’t have to buy 1000ft and have 700ft leftover for no reason. ... show more

  • Great cable for production.
Size: 1000ft Style: Unshielded Color: black
Bought this to make looms of power and data. These have been in use for a couple of years and stand up to being coiled and uncoiled. They get wet, dirty, and walked on in some cases. They sit out in the sun and brave the cold. I haven't seen any issues yet, and we get gigabit speeds out of them as well. These are well made spools of cable, and I need to buy more. ... show more

  • Ran 350” of this for Access point. No slowdown of speeds.
Size: 1000ft Style: Unshielded Color: black
I ran roughly 350 feet of this cable direct buried in the ground, no conduit. I was very careful to not to crimp the line as I buried it and tapped in in good all the way. I configured a router in AP mode. The speeds coming out of the Ethernet and wirelessly close to the AP router are exactly the same as the main router. Since I buried this cable it has been run over by a tree trimming truck multiple times as the electric company is trimming lines on the property so I’m assuming it’s built well enough. Also note that extending your network in this way actually increases bandwidth so two separate families are using the network I extended with no noticeable slowdown or lag. So far so good. ... show more

  • Successful Termination, No Issues
Size: 500ft Style: Unshielded Color: black
I've bought two reels of this cable so far. No issues, terminates successfully. I'm careful not to kink or stress this stuff when I'm pulling it. I'm using some outside, some in a basement. The times that I have kinked it because I wasn't paying attention did not seem to harm the cable. Make sure you use the right size cable supports when attaching to walls or other structures. I use both Cat 6 and 5 for different purposes, and the 6 is quite a bit larger than the 5. ... show more
