I bought this when the main description still listed it as a Cat6A riser when in fact it is a Cat6 cable and is claimed to exceed the Cat6 specs. The entire jacket of the cable is stamped "Cat 6 Plus 550MHz" but I don't think there is a "Cat 6 Plus" standard. I was going to return it as it's not actually a Cat6A cable but decided to keep it as I don't think I'll need 10G ethernet at the distances that Cat 6A will provide indoors for the foreseeable future. Also, it looks like they sell this brand of cable at a certain big hardware store with an orange square logo, so it's probably not that bad. ceiling and others connected via a newly installed wall outlet) are scattered throughout the house. The other ends are connected to a patch panel, which is then connected to a managed POE switch, which in turn is connected to a (non-wireless) router. The switch settings show that all APs are connected at 1Gbps duplex, which is the maximum capability of the switch and router, and that the APs receive the required POE (Power over Ethernet) from the switch. In principle, the cable works as it should. Made some spare cables (various lengths) with RJ45 Cat6 connectors using some of the cable left over. In general, the cable can be processed very well. I ended up connecting a room with Category 6A (different brand) in-wall cable, which was thicker/bulky but still worked.
