Questions & Answers

Cat5 cable and cat6 cable are different. What's the difference?

The Cat6 standard A cable is also known as a cable 6 offers better signal strength, lower crosstalk, and a lower noise floor This series of products has an excellent signal-to-noise ratio and is suitable for 10GBASE-T Ethernet), while Cat5e carries transmission speeds up to 100 Mb/s It is only possible to connect up to 1000BASE-TX cables Ethernet Gigabit (GigE). To ensure the future of our children If you need to future proof your network, Cat6 is generally a better choice, which is also worth the small premium in price. Cat5e and Cat6 cables are both backwards compatible, which means older Cat5"e and Cat5"e equipment can be used with Cat6 cables.

What are the specifications of this cable? Is it rated for in-wall ?

The product is not suitable for in-store usage You can use the wall for this. A CM rating applies to general purpose cables (patch cables). The cable appears to be stranded, but the rating seems to be all about the It is an in-depth look at As a result of wall-rated cabling, there are fewer toxic fumes released during a fire. This is particularly important in residential buildings in which there is a great deal of cabling, but state law doesn't differentiate between small and large would go ahead and use this if it met their needs if it were only for pulling a few cables at home. You can do your own home repairs if you have the necessary tools and supplies It is recommended to use CMR-rated wire in the wall, from a code standpoint, but the wire will not make a difference to the data or to the longevity of the The CMR wire should also be terminated in keystone jacks in wall plates (which can be done without a crimp tool), and then your device should be connected to the wall using patch cables such as these.

It is 30' that I need. Installing 50' and tucking the extra into the wall will have any effect on performance, or will it be more effective to custom cut it?

A distance of 50 feet will have no effect on performance However, rolling back the extra in the wall isn't a good way to do it. For my equipment, I would buy bulk cable, fish it through the wall, cut it to length, leave a few percent extra for slack, install jacks, and use short jumpers on each end of the cable to get to it. Compared to the previous solution, this is much more professional and flexible.

Cat5 and cat6 are two different types of cables. What's the difference?

Cat5 operates at up to 100 Mbps, Cat5e at up to 1 Gbps, and Cat6 at up to 10 Gbps. As a result, you'll see things differently in practice. This is what my gigabit internet looks like. The speeds I get should be the same whether I have CAT5e or CAT6, but, in reality, I get downloads and uploads of about 890 and almost 800 Mbps respectively The speed of CAT5e is 930mbps From 950 to A CAT6 cable will give you a result of 980.

Selected User Reviews For Cable Matters Snagless Long Cat6 Ethernet Cable (Cat6 Cable, Cat 6 Cable) in Black 35 ft

A remarkable feature of this cable was that it was able to withstand two strikes
5/5

Okay, most of you have already heard of this product, but I have only one thing to say about it it's tough This cable is currently being used by my next door neighbor, who has fiber and wanted to share it with me. As a result, it is continually exposed to sunlight, water, and so on. A native of Puerto Rico, I work as an engineer. What is most amazing about this is that the cable lasted through two Category 5 hurricanes (Hurricane Maria and Hurricane Irma). It literally hangs from my roof to his roof (the cable is literally attached to both of them). If you are looking for a good and sturdy cable, you should pick this one.

If you're going to use them for video transmission, do not buy them! The Cable Matters Cat6 Ethernet Cable 75ft each and the Cable Matters Active USB 3 I bought can be found here
3/5

A theater show required me to connect 0 extensions of 32 feet for the transmission of video signals. I just tested the 75 ft Cat6 Ethernet Cable with my HDMI transmitter, and I've noticed the signal lagging and the transmission frequency consistently between three and four frames per second Each frame takes 5 seconds. In addition, I replaced the 100 ft Cat 5e with a spare that the theatre had, and the video signal remained clear and crisp. Furthermore, I included the USB 3 as part of my testing. If you use a regular Logitech USB camera with 0 extension, the frame rate is also very low, about 3- frames per second Each frame takes 5 seconds. Eventually, I was able to borrow another extension and the signal resumed as normal. Using these 2 tests, I have concluded that Cable Matter's cable quality definitely has some issues. I spent both time and money on it. I also gave up tech time that I had in the theatre troubleshooting it and attempting to figure out what the best solution might be. I made a video of me using Cable Matter's cable as well as another brand, and it clearly shows that Cable Matter's quality has some issues while another brand seems to do As it stands, these 3 cables are pretty much useless for me now that I have them. My return address is on the envelopes. Nevertheless, it wasted quite a bit of my time, which prompted me to share this recommendation with you all, be aware of this brand's cable at least if you need to send video!.

This company provides defective Ethernet cables for every one of my four homes
3/5

I spent hundreds on new cables for all four homes. When the connectors on the cables heat up, the plastic on them expands, making it next to impossible to remove them from the ports as a result. In the past, I have damaged a port on a $1500 Ubiquiti switch by trying to pull one of these cables out. Don't do it.

100Mb per second is the maximum speed
3/5

Since I bought this cable a couple of years ago, I've been using it. Although it seemed to be reliable enough, I've never tested its speed before. It seems to me that this supposedly 6 cable taps out similar speeds to my other 5e cables, but my other 5e cables give me roughly 1Gbps. There's no way it can be used for this.

The cable was about 26 feet into the spool due to a kink
4/5

He provided good customer service. Although I noticed this before going ahead and installing the cable, I decided to do it The only thing I knew I needed was about 120-130 We jumped 125 feet into the air and decided to take the risk. Although it worked out fine in the end, if I had needed the full 150 feet in my order, I would have sent the order It is also important to note that this cable is stranded and does not have a solid core. The price point at which I expect stranded is this. The following discovery occurred to me so that I could share it in case it is relevant to anyone I received a call from Cable Matters and they offered to replace the cable. After it was learned that the cable had already been cut and installed, they offered to make up for the bad cable with a partial refund. We found it to be good to know that they back up their product. We would buy from them again in the future.

Very good product that is reasonably priced and works well
5/5

It was a great day. Our family had believed that wifi was what was best, but our 13 year old games get lag when he uses wireless and as a result he needs to switch to hardwiring in order to play to his best ability. There is no need to blather blather blather. The kid got what he wanted because he is an excellent child who truly believes The two of us are very happy, and he is as well. Our modem on the floor of the main floor was connected to an old router in my son's room, and we then connected it to his PS4 and his gaming desk computer with two short ethernet cables. I am very happy with this cord, and we have no problems with it at all. My kid (the wifi hog) was extremely glad to get connected via the internet. the Cat5 because although my research shows there is little to no difference today, I didn't want to have to upgrade in the next 18 months because my kid has outgrown the previous model. Thanks a lot for your help.

There is a good reason why this gets five It is impossible for me to comment on the electrical qualities of the cables
5/5

I am able to stream Netflix from my router to my TV but not But the cable is fantastic in terms of its physical properties. many times have you encountered a cable connector stuck in a modem, router, or other device? The connectors on these cables are of a very high A quality connection is achieved by smoothly loading and removing the connectors, but yet maintaining a constant locking power. The price I paid at a name brand national computer retailer was three times what I paid at your store. Also, I like that there are multiple lengths available (at least in black), which has made my particular application much simpler. Don't hesitate to buy this brand. You won't be disappointed.

At least, Cat5e is not even going to do it
3/5

I'm very doubtful of the claim that "Cat6 performance is comparable to Cat5e but with higher bandwidth. ". In any case, in this case either the quality control is bad or the cable is not Cat6 There was a cable maxing out at 50mb/sec, and there were a lot of bufferbloat issues. Just buy a cheap old cat5e from a reputable vendor, and you're good to go.
