It's really good when you need to get internet from anywhere in your house and you don't have a wireless router
I tested against a more expensive much shorter cable. run of cable at Best Buy, I received 100ft. The cable was somewhat smaller in diameter but absolutely performed as well as the more expensive cables. Not in the case of this product. Works flawlessly. of quality Ethernet cable.
This run is used for Xbox live and Netflix. The normal mode of consumer thinking is more expensive equals better quality. For the price of a 10ft. There was no loss of speed or performance in comparison.
Fast shipping and great price for 100 ft ethernet cable. its fairly skinny and good coloring and works great.Its not for high traffic areas
Like others said, the sheathing is quite cheap/flimsy - but it protects it well enough if you're not running it over anything rough. I have only had it out a few days, so I am hoping the smell dissipates, but if it doesn't I may actually have to replace it - it's a bit nauseating. If I was running this cable through a bunch of stuff, or running lots of it for a big project I would absolutely not buy it due to the cheap sheathing. However, there is one issue that I am quite disappointed in - the product STINKS. Just beware the stench. One thing - it appears different cables are being sent, as one reviewer said theirs had writing down the length of theirs - mine has no writing on it anywhere (which was a bit upsetting because I wanted to know for certain it was cat5e and not some cat5 cable passed off as cat5e).
If you want a cable that works and is cheap - this is it. I purchased this through CMPLE, and am relatively pleased considering the cost. Literally, it smells horrible - you know new tire smell.this is kind of like that, except a different type of plastic odor. Please note the sheathing is dull (as opposed to shiny), and has a texture that is not as smooth as shinier cables with heavier outside casing.
It bends well and fits the corner nicely. I would buy it again. I used this cable from 2nd floor to 1st floor through the stairs. I do need something to hold it down and make it straight tho.
