Review on πŸ”Œ Importer520 CAT5E Ethernet Network Laptop: Fast and Reliable Internet Connectivity by Omar Alradwan

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Doesn't look like a network cable. May be ok for a serial connection.

I have a hard time believing that this is actually a network cable let alone a Category 5 cable. When I noticed how thin it was and that there was no writing on the outside of the cables (unlike the sample picture), I cut off the end (I was going to make my patch cords out of it anyway) and noticed the following. :- No twisting of individual wires.- This is not an EIA/TIA 568B color scheme. Each wire has its own color. In the attached image, the left side is what I expected. I bought the right side. Unfortunately I cut the end off so I'm stuck with that. I give the seller a week to notice my review and then just throw it in the trash and consider it a life lesson.

Pros
  • Durable Category 5 patch cord has two RJ-45 male to male connectors
Cons
  • A newer model could have been chosen
