I used this ethernet cable to connect multiple rooms in a new house. It's just as easy to use/crimp and works great. The only thing stopping me from giving this a fifth star is that one of the pull rods had a significant kink/spasm from being in the box. The kink was so big that I was worried that the wires in the cable might have been cut/damaged. However, so far it works well and I would recommend it to others.
