The Ethernet cable we purchased for our Industrial and Scientific application was a complete disappointment. Based on our own experience we cannot recommend this product. Despite its supposed gigabit speed capabilities, it consistently failed to MAINTAIN a reliable connection .The cable was also flimsy and felt cheaply made. The only pro was its affordable price, but that comes at the cost of reliability. We regret purchasing this product and will be looking for a better option for our wiring and connecting needs..
