    First off the strain relief molding turned out to be even better than the one in the photo here on amazon


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Notice that some brands of cat 6 cables have a strain relief that flexes in the 34up and down34 direction but not 34side to side34 due to a molding running the length of the side which tends to cause the cable to bend severely sideways if pulled hard in that direction


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The molding shown in the product folder here is a small step up from that with molding strips on the top and bottom
