Review on Enhanced Ethernet Cable by Mediabridge - 15ft, πŸ”Œ Supports Cat6/5e/5, 550MHz, 10Gbps - High-Speed RJ45 Cord (Part# 31-399-15X) by Roy Boone

I received a fake but Mediabridge was very responsive. Years of experience

Received my cable and used it for a while with no problems. The speed was ok but then I upgraded my internet to gigabit speed and ran a speed test to make sure I was getting the speed from my router that the ISP told me. I used this cable and found that its max speed is 100Mbps. Just to make sure it was the cable and not my router, I used a shorter cable that I know supports up to 10Gbps. Of course the router was fine. I read here that some buyers may have received a counterfeit product, so I contacted Mediabridge. They were very helpful and we made sure the cable I received was fake. They immediately sent me a new one and I ran the speed test again and the speeds were exactly what I expected. Just a note for others, if your cable doesn't have a label, it's probably fake news. Your cable should say Mediabridge, CAT6, etc. If not, contact Mediabridge and let them know so they can help you.
