Questions & Answers

Are you sure "250mhz" is not Most cat6 cables are rated for 550 MHz. ?

250 mhz is the standard speed for Cat6. CAT6a is enhanced and has a 550 MHz frequency rating

Could this be a UTP cable or a STP cable?

I believe this is UTP (unshielded) In view of the price and the picture (doesn't appear to be any metal shielding), this should be clear.

The cat 6 wires have staggered wires in the rj45 clip, per the cat 6 spec, or do the wires run straight across, as in What significance does that have?

As they look straight across, they remind me of kittens. Performing well is not important from the perspective of performance. The performance of my 1440p video watching is still great, even with an okay, not very good Ethernet switch and an okay, not great powerlink adapter. There is only one difference between the length described and actual length.

Who makes these? What country does it come from?

I'm from Beijing

It is sad that this happened, but the best solution is to fix it
5/5

I did a deep clean of my apartment, I set Bobby (the name of my robot vacuum) across the floor to finish up. I keep my winter shoes under the bed, so Bobby is not used to my floors, but he has never been able to go under there because I keep my winter shoes there. I don't have to say that Bobby had a lot of fun As soon as I took the trash out, I started cooking so I could rely on my son to vacuum. We heard a loud clunk in the middle of cooking. In the process of pulling my Ethernet cable out of the wall, Bobby found my Ethernet cable. In a phone call with my father, he told me I needed a new My husband and I are new vacuum moms, and I have found this set that comes with multiples to be perfect for us. Despite Bobby's stern instructions, he hasn't accepted Bobby's offer to use the new Fortunately, I have backups that work so if he does, there is no problem! I've used them for years.

Have a good time with your cat 5 marketed as a The ethernet speed on my computer seemed to be slower than the WiFi speed
3/5

There was no way I could do that, as I had an Amazon Basics CAT6, but it was only limited to 100 Mbps. The test included a crimp kit, a cable of 100 feet from a different company, and a bunch of equipment. I tried my 100-foot cable to different rooms in my house, and I instantly noticed I could get a 1Gbps connection from every internet connection, and even from other computers in that house There is a wired outlet here. I tried brand new Amazon Basics cables I bought here, and I got back to 100 Mbps! This performs 10 times slower than advertised and caused me a major headache before I was able to figure out why. The cable made by Amazon just isn't strong enough. Although it may not be noticeable to you if everything you do is below 100 mbps, I have 500 mbps access through my ISP and I was only getting about one fifth the speed that I had with Do not buy, maybe they will stop falsely advertising because of that. Here's the latest A rating of one star is added It was noted that one of the connectors on my outlet was bent and wasn't making good contact. An additional cat5 I bought made contact sometimes, but this cable met zero success rates.

These CAT6 cables are nice quality
5/5

Over the last several years, replacing my network cables with CAT6 cables has increased my home network speed the most than any other upgrade I've done. I replaced all of my CAT5 cables with 3ft + 5ft versions of these, and my GB network went from 15 mb/sec transfer speed to 70 mb/sec transfer speed. I worked in the IT Dept server room I helped with. I found the cable quality to be exactly the same as ours. I think it's a great buy I would recommend it.

Item works as advertised and I like the sturdiness of the As far as cables go, I did not have any color in my life so I went in search of It seems that there are quite a few out there, but most of the brands I was unfamiliar with
5/5

The reason I took a chance on this one is because I've used AmazonBasics item in the past and I've had a good experience with them. After hooking up the cables, I tested each one by itself to ensure there were no issues right After that, I set about putting these in place with a bunch of twists and turns that would have caused issues with inferior cables, but these still turned out to work once they were installed. The materials appear to be quite durable, and they seem to be performing as advertised so far. The next time I need more colors, I will buy again.

The only flaw is that it was too simple
4/5

For a mini home server like mine where I must connect multiple devices to the router and organize everything at the same time, this is perfect. These colorful ethernet cables were purchased together with a TP-Link 8 port switch (which will suffice for the time being). For connecting my NAS, my pihole, my PS4, and various other devices to my network, the cable is perfect. Due to the multiple devices I have connected, and the need for debugging the pihole every now and then, my cable management and organization in the server has improved dramatically. Despite the fact that it's easier now, I still need to hunt for that one ethernet cable. Everything is color-coded, so I'm not looking for it anymore. There are some flaws in the cables, such as the fact that they do not have a shroud or have metal at the ends they are all The idea is not offensive to me, but I am constantly testing or moving things around, so unplugging and plugging the ethernet might cause the device to fail over time. I recommend these ethernet cables to someone who does not want to continuously move their device around or touch it after plugging it in. Despite the small size of these cables, they're perfect for Ethernet connections. In addition, their conversion is handled by Amazon, so if something breaks or does not work, you can expect a free return!.

My connectivity issue has been resolved
5/5

In the past, I have connected my Netgear C7800 router/modem to my PC with an old CAT5 cable, but was experiencing intermittent disconnections when using Citrix to remotely connect to my work computer. I resolved my issue with the disconnects by upgrading to CAT6 cables.

Quality network cables for a fair price
4/5

The cables are of decent quality at a decent price. It isn't the highest end, but for 99% of cases, these will more than suffice. We have several of them in the server room and they are reliable. There is really nothing more you can want from them.

Ensure that the unifi AP is connected at gigabit speed
5/5

As far as I can tell, everything is going smoothly. Despite only having three in service for a few weeks, they are still reliable and can maintain gigabit connections on my unifi access points (which is the reason I With the cables I was using, I had to reduce the connection to a 10/100 connection, so now I'm able to keep going at gigabit rates. It will remain to be seen if this lasts, but for now I'm done with the process.
