The majority of reviewers praise the cable's high quality, durability, and excellent performance in 10G networks. However, a small group of customers have reported issues with the insulation being easily gouged or scratched, and some have experienced breaks in their conductors.
Shielding Type And Thickness
Customers have mixed opinions on the shielding type and thickness of this Cable Matters In-Wall Rated Cat6a Shielded Ethernet Cable, with some praising its effective shielding and others expressing frustration over the need to purchase specific plugs from the manufacturer. The cable's thick aluminum shield is a point of contention, with some reviewers appreciating it for improved interference protection while others find it incompatible with standard RJ45 plugs. Overall, customers acknowledge the cable's high-quality construction and 10Gb rated capability, but express varying levels of satisfaction
Twist Rate
Customers have expressed concerns about the inconsistent twist rate of the Cable Matters In-Wall Rated Cat6a Shielded Ethernet Cable, with some reporting that it fails to meet the Cat6a standard due to insufficient twists per inch. Others noted difficulties in pulling and installing the cable without damaging it. Despite these issues, a few customers were satisfied with their purchase.
Highlights
Quality
I’m an it professional and from my experience with handling network cables for over 20 years, this one felt of good quality and... Read More
The cable is great quality, and solid stuff.
Sheilding on the black we bought is on the entire cable not per-pair (which would be better).
You must purchase the plugs from cable matters because they made the cat6a wire too thick for a normal plug.
Price
It not only was a smart purchase but the price was wonderful
For the price it's hard to beat.
Shipping
Oh and the free fast delivery and excellent price provided by amazon was just the icing on the cake!
The product is great, and the delivery was exactly as expected.
Packaging/appearance
I bought 5 boxes total and didn't have a problem with any of them.
The spool inside the box was broken, but for me it didnt matter, i was putting it on a metal spool holder anyway.
Competitiveness
The insulated od on this cable is larger than cat6a connector being sold by cable matters.

Its a little harder to work with because each color pair of wire is individually shielded which is a win in my book
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
I dont like how loose the wire is in the self pull boxes lots of initial kinks and tangles until the first 4050ft of wire comes off the spool so it takes two people initially or pulling alot off the spool initially

This is some very thick cable and if you’re running more than one cable through a bore hole make sure it is bigger
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
I managed to fit three per hole for a 58” hole
