Type of review

There was initial concern that you could buy a cable from Revain and ship it to Canada, but the matching connectors are not shipped to Canada by TrueCable. Have found Klein Cat6a connectors to work great. The cable itself seems really well made and I have a yellow spool for Ubiquiti security cameras and a blue spool for Ubiquiti hotspots in my new house. The cable is too narrow for AP bends so I use some short Cat6a 26 AWG pigtails for them and then use female/female or keystone connectors to…

1000ft in Multiple Cord Lengths

You might think you're buying a 1000ft cord reel when you have multiple cord lengths on that reel and you never know how long your next cord will be or if you'll be using it can because it is pinched or damaged. This is by far the worst Cat6 cable I have ever bought. I had already used 200ft of cable when I realized how bad and damaged the cable underneath was and it was probably too late to return it. But the next time I buy a cable, I will study the information better.

Pros
  • Large selection
Cons
  • Not sure

Great cable, but research and buy cable lugs beforehand.

I don't think all local shops have plugs that work with this cable. Save yourself tons of time and frustration by buying everything together online. This is because the outer diameter of the insulation of individual CAT6a conductors is approximately 1.10mm. The overall cable diameter is approx. 7.2 mm. Make sure any endings you choose work. Example: An ideal CAT6 RJ-45 loop-through does not work under any circumstances.

Pros
  • Regular price
Cons
  • This pisses me off

Works best for me in Computers & Accessories

I started using this after a few weeks. For now, it's durable and easy to use. I accidentally bent the wire by pulling and didn't realize it got tangled, but that didn't become a problem. I absolutely recommend this cable.

  • Pleasant
