Revainrating 1 out of 5

This is CCA - Copper Aluminum Wire.

Attention, the buyer is not a solid copper wire. This is CCA copper coated aluminum wire. I took a sample from the end of the wire and put it under the microscope to check. At 300x magnification, we see that the inner core of this material is not the same color or material as the outer. When they say "hard wire," they do so to mislead the buyer. These wires do not meet the same standard in the current CAT6 specification. I buy two of these boxes and they are sent back immediately. Definitely misleading advertising.

Pros
  • CENTER DIVIDLER/BOLT: The center divider/slot provides additional support for the cable to prevent twisting and kinking. It also separates pairs to further eliminate crosstalk.
Cons
  • discontinued model
