Review on πŸ”Œ Optimized Monoprice 102288 Cat6 Ethernet Patch Cable - Network Internet Cord - RJ45, Stranded, 550Mhz, UTP, Pure Bare Copper Wire, 24AWG, 1ft, Black by Marcus Barlow

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Very bad wire. suitable for cables and connectors

I bought this 3ft connector cable to replace the 8ft cable because I didn't need the 8ft length. Once I had the cable, I plugged it into the wall and it clicked in place, then the other end into my Roku player. When turning on the TV there was no signal. I decided to take the buds out and put them back in, but try as I might, I couldn't remove either bud. I really felt like I was damaging the outlets on the wall and the Roku player by trying to unplug them. I finally got the channel blocking pliers and squeezed the jack's plug and thankfully it was removed without damaging the Roku player or the wall jack. So not only was I not getting any signal, I also had an issue with the plugs being disconnected. Sure, I've been buying Monoprice products for 20 years, but I've never had a problem - this wire is a total disappointment. Thank you Revane for refunding the few dollars I paid for the transfer. I decided to leave the 8ft wire and not bother with the replacement.
