Review on TrueCABLE Cat6A Shielded Riser (CMR) Computer Accessories & Peripherals by Stephen Johnson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Solid cable - sturdy and easy to work with (but hard to terminate)

Overall I like this cable. It is very durable and of high quality. A lot of reviews complain about its rigidity and I understand why, but it also made it easy to run wires through my attic to stretch the whole house. ends where slack needs to be introduced into the junction boxes. That is hard. The termination is too difficult given the thickness of the cable. I've used keystone jacks and they were pretty tricky, but I can't see how you can actually crimp the end of this thing. Finally, I can't talk about 10 Gbps as there are other limiting factors in my network that make me run at 1.

Pros
  • electronics
Cons
  • boring packaging
