Review on Micro Connectors 500Ft Solid Shielded (Stp) Cat6 Bulk Ethernet Cable - Gray (TR4-560SHGR-500) by Stephen Cernatescu

Revainrating 1 out of 5

New network with wired backhaul - cable worked perfectly

I just upgraded my internal home network from a mostly Wi-Fi mesh network to a wired backhaul to all routers (1 main and 2 access points). This required running 4 new new lines inside the walls to the new router. We then wired additional rooms for dedicated network connections. This cable has a tough outer jacket but is flexible enough to get through tight spaces. 3 out of 4 runs were at least 50 feet long. We recorded the speed on the modem and then again on the back of the wireless router. When we tested each new connection, the speed was within a few Mbps of the modem speed. No inside shorts or significant losses. I'm a fan and would recommend it.

Pros
  • Brilliantly done
Cons
  • Long time
