Revainrating 5 out of 5

Should have ordered 65 feet

Used this to run from my home office, on the second floor, into a room in the basement so that I could relocate my home lab gear into that room. Router/internet connection is in the office, but I got tired of the noise, and heat, it generated there. 50 feet of cable was not enough, and 75 is a bit too much.Even though I'm only using this on a 1Gb network, I still wanted the Cat7 cable. Overkill, most likely. But at least I know I won't have any [real] latency between the [Gb] switch everything connects to and what is on the router (it's internal Gb switch).With the cable being flat, it's a lot easier to run so that it's not a tripping hazard. It crosses over a stair (gaffer's tape) and then down the stair runners and such. If I was to use a more traditional round cable, it would be more difficult to keep out of the way.Now I just need to replace the 8' cables connecting everything where the gear is now, together, with the 3' cables I've purchased. Actually need to order more of those since I need 8 and only have 6.

Pros
  • The shielded LAN wire design of this cable blocks electromagnetic interference and reduces signal loss, ensuring that you get a stable and uninterrupted connection
Cons
  • The cable may not work well with certain networking equipment or configurations
