Review on πŸ”Œ Highly Durable Vertical Cable Cat6, Shielded, Dual Jacket, Direct Burial - 1000ft, Black: Bulk Ethernet Cable by Todd Mohr

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Excellent quality! I got this because of the many caves and its shielding. For the price I can't beat it.

Excellent quality! I got this because of the many caves and its shielding. For the price I can't beat it. I live in Washington state so I needed water protection and that's outside as I ran my own wire for a two story house many of which run under the house and in the attic leading to the upstairs light switch. Switches on each floor. also ran a new cable from the mast to my modem and now there is no signal loss, it is shielded with foil, plastic and cloth over the outer UV jacket. And it has a ground wire, so be sure to use a shielded connector on RJ45 category 6 or disconnect it. If you do not properly ground the ground wire, you are not using that wire to its full potential. I am very happy with the perches even though it was more than I needed. This is definitely industrial grade and is great for running backbone cables to a switch in another building, outdoors, directly underground, or if you live in a humid area or just want to make sure your infrastructure is capable of 10Gb Networking is set up if you have the necessary hardware, 10 gigabit switches and network cards for your servers and devices. FYI, they are expensive, like $1000 for switches and $200-300 for a NIC when you think of local LAN.

Pros
  • Ideal for a small home
Cons
  • Appearance
