Really Cat 7? for cables and accessories

I have a 50 foot reel of this flat cable that runs through a few rooms to an HDBASET adapter. The HDBASET adapter powers the projector with an HDBASET connector. I've noticed intermittent cabling issues, which are often resolved with a little wiggling of the cables. I have a feeling this cable is not really CAT7 compliant and if so it would be interesting to see their certification. at my length. I have a feeling that conductors closer to the 30 AWG size range are used as the cable is very flexible but at the same time very easy to break.

Cons
