Good price, mediocre performance

Bought a pair to test my internal ethernet. When I got close, I could never break the 2 Gbps cap, and most of the time I averaged around 1.5 Gbps on about 30 tests. The blocks did not get hot. Pretty disappointing as I'm not sure if these measurements indicate what I'm getting with real NICs. I wouldn't advise getting them and expecting full speeds. Best case (outlier): Connected to host 192.168.1.1, port 5201[4] Local port 192.168.1.2 63011 Connected to port 192.168.1.1 5201[ID] Interval Transfer Bandwidth[4 ] 0.00 - 1.00 s 218 MB 1.83Gbps[4 ] 1.00-2.00s 240MB 2.01Gbps[4] 2.00-3.00s 233MB 1.96Gbps[4] 3.00-4.00s 245MB/ s 2.05[4] 4.00-5.00 s 240MB 2.01Gbps[4] 5.00-6.00 s 241MB 2.02Gbps[4] 6.00-7 .00s 247MB 2.07Gbps[4] 7.00-8.00s 246MB 2.06/s[4] 8.00-9.00s 238MB 2.00Gbps [4] 9.00-10.00s 213MB 1.79Gbps- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -[ ID] Interval Transmission Bandwidth [ 4] 0.00 - 10.00 s 2.30 GB 1.98 Gbps transmitter [ 4] 0.00 - 10.00 s 2.30 GB 1.98 Gbps receiver Worst case (fairly common) : Connected to Host 192.168.1.1, Port 5201[4] Local 192.168.1.2 Port 54144 Connected to Port 192.168.1.1 5201[ID] Interval Transmission Bandwidth[4 ] 0.00-1.00s 206MB 1.72Gbps [4] 1.00-2.00s 234MB 1.96Gbps[4] 2.00-3.00s 99.2MB 832Mbps[4] 3.00-4.00s 76 .4MB 641M bps[4] 4.00-5.00s 170MB 1.43Gbps[4] 5.00-6.00sec 167MB 1.40Gbps[4] 6.00-7 .00 sec 213 MB 1.78 Gbps[4] 7.0.0 sec 133 MB 1.12 Gbps[4] 8.00-9.01 s 125 MB 1.03 Gbps[4] 9.01-10.00s 172MB 1.46Gbps- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -[ ID] Send Interval [ 4] 0.00-10.00 s 1.56 GB 1.34 Gbps Sender[ 4] 0.00-10.00 s 1.56 GB 1.34 Gbps Destination
