Review on 💡 CableCreation Converter: High-Performance Adapter with Prolific Chipset by Mark Sutovsky

I am Lumens Chief Network Architect and I use many different routers/switches in my home as I always install PoC in my home to test network solutions for work. I have purchased several of these Category 6 cables for my home and PoC. I used one of these cables from my Asus Wi-Fi 6 router's WAN gateway at home to my Tablo, which wirelessly streams local HD channels to my smart TVs. Yes, I refuse to pay cable companies $150 a month when I can get most of the channels you will ever want for free. I used a different cable from my Asus WiFi router to my Juniper SRX320 Services Gateway PoC router. Another of these cables from the SRX320 to my fanless PoC switch Juniper EX2300-C. Finally, I used one of the PoC Mist AP12 Access Points for the EX2300-C. I've found that in cooler locations with more airflow, the cables work as expected about 85% of the time, only occasionally losing LAN connectivity. However, in my large, room temperature closet with limited airflow, any of the cables I would connect from my WAN gateway from my Asus Wi-Fi 6 router at home to my Tablo would fail within a day of use. I've tried switching to a different one of these cables every time when Tablo after about a day or less said it could no longer detect my local LAN to which it was connected using a Category 6 cable just pulled out one of my longer regular category 5 cables that I've been using for years. After replacing these cables with a higher Category 5 cable, my Tablo was able to remain connected to the LAN indefinitely, as expected. I then put one of my PoC devices in a closet using one of these Category 6 cables and lost the LAN connection for 24 hours, which clearly proves that these cables are faulty and should not be used. I do not recommend them and will stick with more expensive Category 5/6 cables in the future. I just consider it a lesson learned. Sometimes it doesn't pay to be a humble curmudgeon.
