0.5m - CAT6a - network cable gray - pack of 10 CAT 6 A patch cable 10000 Mbit s SFTP PIMF 500 MHz compatible with CAT5 CAT6 CAT7 DSL Internet Switch Router

Simple CAT6a ethernet cables. Perfect for setting up full fibre networks, such as Eero mesh systems up to 500 Mbps. Brilliant for home systems, as they are standard plug and play with excellent transmission and very affordable.

Very good value for money cable, very well made, would recommend.

Item as described. Works very well

it does the job

Very nice quality feel and look to them, definitely much better quality than the cheap standard cables for sure.I switched from CAT5 UTP to this CAT6a S-FTP (shielded). My router has no option unless i change it to be near tv and because of the cables that come to and from tv's and there associated equipment it was important to me to get shielded cable this time.It's a bit much some may say to use CAT6a for gigabit ethernet but one i am future proofing as 10Gbe NICs are coming down into consumer price ranges now and secondly shielded is much better to help cut out or reduce interference. CAT7 was just overkill for my needs and seeing as i am not routing cable through walls as i bought these for connecting devices to router, they can be easily be replaced at not to high of a cost.Unfortunately the higher the number ie. CAT5 to CAT6 the thicker the cable therefore harder to route but that's just the way it is. In my case i bought 1.5m, 1m and 0.5 meter as i am not routing through walls or anything like that having shielded cable will also make it thicker but worth it if you can use it and afford it.Was buying another brand but be definitely buying these again as much better quality, solid and very well made, hard to find good quality cable, everyone claims there cables are good but only some shine. Only had them in use for about a week so only time will tell how long they last. Highly recommend.

Good value cable. Installed and connected up router to TV box with no issues.The lugs on the cable connectors may cause difficulties if you have to feed the end of the cable through any holes. Make sure the hole is big enough.

Note: the cables I got did not mention CCA (copper clad aluminium) description mentions CU (just copper) and this would change review entirely.I previously changed from unshielded/UTP CAT5a to shielded (F/UTP) CAT6 due to strange performance issues and never looked back. Considering the relatively little cost difference and the potential of EMF interference in most homes from many devices - I see no reason to get less than shielded CAT6 for gigabit connections.But this is CAT6a and S-FTP which perhaps is "overkill" for gigabit - but if you plan to deploy it in walls, route it around the house, outside, etc. - then i think it's a good investment especially as we are finally moving past 1Gbit to 2.5/5 or perhaps straight to 10Gbit. If you already have 10Gbe in some devices (e.g. servers, NAS, etc.) then perhaps it's not such a bad idea being 'future proof'.Both at 10Gbit (only 1 link tested) and 1Gbit the Intel adapter cable tester utility reported great frequency response - for what is worth. So far no issues at either speed.The cable is thicker than the CAT6 one from the same company (as each pair is shielded not the whole cable) and a bit harder to route but I think it's worth it.

100 Mbps.... Had them 5 year's almost, bought them to future proof my server for when fibre was installed.So today I found out they won't exceed 100 Mbps. So I need to changed all my leads.They are cheap but worthless to me now. So if you are on copper at 100 or less ok. Otherwise not the 1000 Mbps 6a would provide.
