Description of Monoprice 10 Pack SlimRun Ethernet Network Cables

Thinner and Lighter:SlimRun Cat6A is much lighter than standard 23AWG Cat6A cables and is easier to route and install. The smaller cable saves space and improves airflow in high density environments, like server rooms. Snagless and Narrow Boot Design:The narrow boot and snagless design make this cable the perfect choice for high-density environments, like data centers or a telecommunications room. High Performance:This cable is perfect for 10-Gigabit Ethernet and is backwards compatible with any existing Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet. Reduces Congestion in High Density Spaces: Designed for high-density environments where space is a premium, SlimRun's ultra-slim cable and narrow boot design reduces congestion and simplifies moves, additions, and changes. This means that, along with saving space, you also save time and money!.

Talking is cheap, so here are the real data transfer results. (Pictures attached)

For those reading the lowest star review. Note a few things: According to TIA guidelines, to be "officially a CAT6a cable" these three things must be true that these cables don't have: 1. It must be between the 16-20G cable. 2. It must have extra shielding to reduce crosstalk.3 The 10Gbps speed should be kept within 100m. Therefore, by their own admission, these cables are misrepresented and advertised (using 30G cable). the longest I've bought) See the pics below for details I haven't tried…

Pros
  • Electronics
Cons
  • Very Expensive

Moving all pre-connected CAT cables to Slim Run

Firstly, it's really difficult to highlight the differences between cables in photos online. But they're really thin, about the size of a typical 28AWG USB cable, which makes sense. A standard CAT6 cable or even a CAT5e cable looks ridiculously large next to it. More importantly, it's also ridiculously easier to manage, very easy to route even in hard-to-reach places, and easy to coil/tie up loose cable. The connections are really solid and tight and I really don't feel like there will ever be…

Pros
  • Computers and accessories
Cons
  • I will add later

Measured tip to tip, not cable length

There are two ways to measure cable length. You can measure from the end of the plug on one end to the end of the plug on the other end, or from the point where the cord and plug meet to the same point on the other end. With a 3 or 5 foot cable it doesn't matter much, but if you switch to a 6 inch or 1 foot cable it can be more than half the cable. A typical example: With the 6-inch variant, the cable consists of a 3-inch cable between two 1.5-inch connectors. They are shorter than expected but

Pros
  • Electronics
Cons
  • Big and Bulky

It's cheap to talk about, so here are the real data transfer results. (Pictures attached)

For those reading the worst review, one star. Note a few things: According to TIA recommendations, to be an "official" CAT6a cable, these three things must be true, which these cables don't have: 1. It must be between 16-20G.2 wire be . There must be additional shielding to reduce crosstalk.3. The 10 Gb/s speed should be maintained up to a height of 100 meters. So, by their own admission, these cables are misrepresented and advertised (using 30G cable). However, I get full 1G speed via 10ft…

Pros
  • Ethernet cable
Cons
  • Damaged
