Review on VIVO 500ft Cat5e Ethernet Cable CABLE-V002 - Grey Bulk Wire, UTP Pull Box by Mark Cannon

This is NOT a category 5e cable. I've only been able to get connection speeds of around 30-40Mbps on many of the gigabit switches and NICs I've used with this cable. This is Cat 5 cable, NOT Cat 5e. I've troubleshooted other company's Cat 5e patch cords and was able to get gigabit throughput on all my hardware. I even double checked the wiring of my cap jewels to make sure something was wrong. So I use the new shorter keystone cables and more. Gigabit bandwidth is not allowed, I used Cat5e and Cat 6 Keystone. Everything is properly connected to the ports. VIVO needs to seriously rethink how they try to market their cables. If it's not Cat5e, don't sell it as Cat5e. Just. Thank god for great customer service from Revains as I got my money back on this reel and had it replaced by another manufacturer.
