Cable Matters [UL Listed] 10Gbps CM Rated 24AWG Stranded Cat 6 Ethernet Cable - 500ft, Bare Copper, UTP, Cat6 Spool for Ethernet Patch Cable, Blue

Tru Cat6 cable. Ran this cable to several rooms in my house, zero issues with cabling.

I own an IT company that installs wire daily and one of my clients had a very strict budget so we purchased this wire. This wire is pretty terrible. It’s only good for keystones and patch panels at best but if you’re wanting to use this wire for RJ45 connectors, you better look elsewhere as the wire strands are insanely soft. Even on pass through connectors, this wire will just shift around and flop around when trying to feed it through the pass through. It’s not very durable either. Anyone who says this wire is for a true professional use is more than likely a DIYer. They’re a reason this wire is only $100.

This is a great deal on a name brand CAT 6 ethernet cable. Mine came on a hard ABS plastic spool ready for a professional install.This is made of 4 pairs of twisted PURE COPPER color-coded stranded wire. I did the burn test. No CCA (copper clad aluminum) here!I go this to wire an upcoming project this Spring. I've been buying Cable Matters branded wire for about 15 years now without issue.Please note this is meant to be ran in between wall and in attics or under floors. Therefore the PVC jacket isn't very rugged. If you're looking to make ethernet cables for your office you can visit the Cable Matters store and pick up on some great deals there.100% recommended.

This is a nice heavy box of CAT6 ethernet cable. The cable has a solid core insulator which keeps things in place, but also makes terminating a little bit of an extra pain sometimes. The wire is a bit stiff, so not as easy to work with as others, but it definitely holds up well.My biggest gripe with large boxes of wire like this is that there is no management option for this. There's no spool, there's no hole for the wire to guide out of the box. You're just supposed to open it up, pull the wire, and hope it goes well from there. Kind of hit or miss depending on the kind of wire runs you're doing. It's good wire, and if you're just custom making ethernet cables as you go instead of big long wire runs it's not as big of a deal. Just depends on your usage. Overall, quality wire though!
