Review on Mediabridge Ethernet Cable (8-Pack - 3 Feet) - Supports Cat6 / Cat5E / Cat5 Standards by Brock Chisholm

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Not certified according to category 6!

I bought a set of 5 to use in a rack between the switch and the PoE bus. The access point could not be connected at 1000 Mbit/s, only at 100 Mbit/s. One out of five cables was bad, not value for money. These cables are supplied without testing or certification to any cable standard. They do not comply with UL Code 444, National Electrical Code TIA-568-C.2 encoded by the Fire and Safety Standard and are not tested or certified for the 6550 MHz category. the order of the pairing wires and nothing more. There is no coding for certification on the cable jacket because there is none. I will not buy again.

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Socket required
