Quality


The cable is very sturdy and has a great connection (if terminated well).


I was very impressed with the quality of this cable.


It is thick wire but the install was nearly flawless.


I've run alot of cat 5, 5e over time this obviously is a little stiffer due to the added center spline which is only a little m...  Read More

Price


Very pleased with price , and turn around time .


I was looking for fast (cat6) ethernet cable that was certified (up to code) for in-wall installations, and this was a great deal.


For some reason i was worried that they might skimp me there, probably because it was such a great price.


Price is great compared to what you get at the local stores.

Shipping


It shipped quickly and was just as described.


The product shipped quickly and arrived in perfect condition.


I ordered a box of 1000ft of cat6 wire and it arrived in two days.


I decided to try somewhere else because i needed the wire fast and didn't want to pay a fortune in shipping.

Packaging/appearance


This may be more of an issue of its over packing not being tight enough.


My only complaint would be the condition of the boxes when received.

Competitiveness


The cable matters brand was always smooth to run and the jacket was noticeably stronger than belkin.


I was such a great deal that i ended up going back and buying 3 more different colors of cable.


This is the first time i've used cat6 compared with cat5.


Cat6 is a bit more work than working with cat5.

    I do know that the electricians and my av specialist both gave me unsolicited feedback that this cable was some of the best that they had ever seen


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I measured out exactly 1000ft so it is the length that they said


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The inside of the wire looked clean and proper with a string to splice it and a plastic divider to keep it protected


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    One thing to be warned is that the cable is very thick and you have to be patient while terminated it because it is hard to get the uncut part of the cable into the connector


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Length left markers on the cable were an absolute god send
