RiteAV - Cat5e Network Ethernet Cable - Blue - 50 ft.

The Network Ethernet cable is ideally suited for customers in need of a quick and reliable internet connection for connecting laptops, computers, and gaming devices that need an Ethernet source.Connectivity and Speed:Gamers will enjoy the reliable connection the RiteAV cable can provide, this helps to reduce lag and latency in a game, allowing users a level playing field when playing competitively. The connectors on each end are gold plated allowing for the cable to be disconnected and reconnected hundreds of times. The RiteAV Ethernet cable is a great value, delivering transmission speeds up to 1000 megabytes per second. The extremely fast connection speed allows for great quality and fast streaming of high definition video, video games, video chatting with the ability to handle large face to face video conference calls.Adaptability:Video streamers and gamers alike will enjoy the freedom a ten foot cable provides, allowing for a greater range of electronic placement to avoid sun glare, and provide the opportunity for multiple options when making overall room set up. The ten foot cord is ideally made for users that need a medium range of cable length without the hassle of getting tangled up or tripping over extra wires when moving around. The flexible ten foot long cord can be wound up and easily stored behind a TV, beneath a gaming console, or carried with your laptop.Durability:The RiteAV cord allows for moderate wear and tear. The plastic/rubber covering the cable resists fraying from accidental rubbing, such as between a wall and a tv stand, keeping the cable safe and reliable to use. The network Ethernet cable is also easy to use. All that you need to do is pinch the snag less molded boot on one end and plug into the wall, and then to pinch the boot at the opposite end of the cable and plug into the desired device. To remove, all one has to do is pinch the boot and remove from the device or wall.I hope you find as much enjoyment out of this cable as I did.

The RiteAV cables have been value leaders for me. Low price and high quality in my experience.I use them in my consulting and system management practice. This cable in particular is 75ft, NOT a common length. It happens to be a good option as the jump from 50' to 100' is a lot of extra cable if you need 60'!! This cable ran Gigabit Ethernet flawlessly.The connector construction is excellent with sturdy plastic boots, effective anti-snag, and well made strain relief.The only complaint is with the anti-snag design. It is effective at preventing the release tab from snagging with its "hoodie" like design. The problem is when there is little clearance on the tab side of the connector in the back of a computer or server. This is where the fairly thick hoodie cover over the tab can make it difficult to release the cable. I have some Tyan servers that fit category and use other cables with a different strain relief. This is an issue with a small number of computers in my experience and a small flat-tip screwdriver or expansion slot blank can be used to help release the cable lock tab in those cases.Since it is overall an excellent cable it still earns 5 stars even though it's not my first choice for systems with little clearance on the network connector.Hope this helps someone!

I'm a little dissapointed because they didn't put my full adress on the label. I contacted ups and I have to pick it up because they can't ship it because of the label didn't have enough info on it. I'm rating it a four star because of the inconvenious. And I'm going to pick it up As soon as able to. I can't say much about the product because I haven't receievd it yet, but the shipping was fast and came sooner than expected, but I still need to pick it up from ups so I may not order freom here again since I haven't had this problem before since I started using Amazon.(UPDATE...)Surpprisingly it did ship to my house because of what I said earlier but it still arrived a couple days late because ups couldn't find my correct adress. The cat5E cables are just as described and it works great so far. I would be carefull about pinching the cable on dorrs or other areas of the house because it seems like it will cut easily. It's worth it since it was cheapier than buying a 50 foot cat 5E cable else where including Amazon. It dosen't say cat 5E on the cable but it does say it on the plastic it's wraped in. And I may buy from here again if I need it badley because of my fist impression with the shipping was a little disappointing.

I purchased this cable 4 months ago but didn't use it. I just now decided to cut the cable to use it for another purpose. In contrast to some other reviewers, I found that the wires *were* twisted in pairs, and it appeared the twists were of different pitches as required for cat 5e. Insulation thickness was just what I would have expected, and I had no trouble stripping it or soldering to the wires. There is no shielding but I don't think that's required for cat 5e. I haven't tested it for transmission speed so can't comment on that, but otherwise the cable seems perfectly fine and appears brand new. As other reviewers have commented, there are no markings on the cable so it's possible different reviewers have received different types, but I've got no complaints about mine.UPDATE: I just now purchased another cable and opened that up as well. The wires in this cable were also twisted in pairs, but in contrast to the cable I bought 4 months ago, the twist frequency was very low (~1 twist per inch vs. 5-10 twists per inch). I couldn't tell from the amount of wire exposed whether the twist pitches were different for different pairs. I don't know if the Cat5-E specs specify a minimum twist frequency, but this cable is definitely different from the previous one (though again no markings).

What can I tell about this data cable. Well it was shipped quickly and it dose what it was sold as. The price was right.

used it works fine
