Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Cat 6 is the way to go when you need a gigabit network, as long as your subsriber service is a gigabit also. Love the extra protection of the shielding. Helped solve intermittent wifi signal issues.

These cables have a perfect fit with no overhang on the sides. The cables are a little stiff, but they seem very sturdy. Rj45 connector seats well.

Cons

The poe waterproof cap is not able to stop over because of the male end. Back it goes… back to the drawing board again.

Nominal increase in transfer speeds, but packet loss appears to be lower.

Competitiveness

I compared these to the vandesail cat7 flat cables and the mediabridge cat6 cables (although their specs would indicate they to... Read More

My measurements have indicated much better shield continuity (though not always perfect) than one of the alternatives here on this site.

I will need to run a series of iperf tests to get a better gauge on real numbers.
