Review on Cat 7 Ethernet Cable 10Ft 5Pack Shielded (Highest Speed Cable) Flat Ethernet Patch Cables - High Speed Internet Cable For Modem by Joshua Coulter

Revainrating 1 out of 5

We have on 18.10. submitted a new evacuation kit from CableGeeker, we will review and update accordingly.

These cables have decent terminations, but I was initially concerned about the cables' light weight and thin construction. Where is the heavy copper protection? Where's the copper wire? Copper coated aluminum wire is not copper wire. I replaced my premium 5e router cable with one of these and started noticing large fluctuations in upload/download speeds at times. I never had the first unstable swing with the included cable so I gave it a day to test and the speed fluctuations continued. After reconnecting my original cable and checking the speed again during the day, everything is stable and transmitting at high speeds again. Clearly something is wrong with this cable, it's coming back and I've ordered two 7ft Revain cables with 85% copper shielding and copper wiring. I cannot recommend this product. I received another set of cables from CableGeeker for evaluation in October 2018. After using and testing, this set turned out to be ok with stable speed and reliable connection. I will continue to use each and give a fair amount of time to use/test until the first two are much better than the original set on November 28th. After testing and rating all six, I will update my review.

Pros
  • ✔High Quality: Made from 4 shielded twisted pair (STP) copper wires with gold plated contact pins in each RJ45 connector. This provides greater resilience to crosstalk, noise and interference.
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging
