Pros & Cons
Pros
A really well valued set of ethernet cables in a very portable format. Great cables for this price range.
As advertised. No known electrical or bw issues. No issue with poe either.
Flat cables are great if you're going to sit furniture on them, because they are flat so they have a better tolerance for being squashed. You can just use velcro straps to keep the coil whatever size you have to.
This 5 pack is a smart move, even if you only need one or two. The strain reliefs and clip guards are decent, while the colors are bright without searing your pupils. Because they are flat, they pack really compactly.
They lock in very securely. They are reasonably fast.
Cons
Cat 6 wire is supposed to be 23 awg. None of the wires are open or shorted. There is no shielding of any kind.

High quality cables, thin and easy to handle.

I've also been flown to remote locations for communications problems which came down to a bad quality cable- costing thousands ... Read More
Competitiveness
If it were a more serious installation i would have opted for hand-cut cat6 cables, but i just needed something quick and dirty.
They work just like any other cat-6 cables, so you can use them as patch cords as well.
You get 5 cords for the price of 1-5ft cords of the belkin brand and yet both deliver same speed.
Used these to replace a bunch of older cat5 cables that were breaking (unfortunately, they don't last forever).
