Review on IMBAPrice - 1Ft Cat5E Network Ethernet Patch Cable (10 Pack) - Red by Dominic Kimbro

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Very important. Well, if you don't plan on turning them off often.

New ethernet cables needed at a rehabilitation site. Nothing special but all the old cables were worn, torn, twisted etc. The cables worked fine but the tab on the RJ45 connector was a bit short. It's quite difficult to pinch it with an adult's fingers to unplug it. Eventually I had to use needle nose pliers to remove a few and found that the tongue cover could fall down and past the tongue making it very difficult to remove from the socket. an extra 1 cm to lengthen the tongue could have prevented this problem. But I don't plan on disconnecting mine unless I need to replace the cable.

Pros
  • High quality 50 micron gold plated contacts for clear communication; fully compliant with FCC Part 68
Cons
  • Not Fashionable
