trueCABLE Cat6A Direct Burial, Shielded FTP, 1000ft, Waterproof, Outdoor Rated CMX, Black, 23AWG Solid Bare Copper, 750MHz, PoE++ (4PPoE), ETL Listed, Bulk Ethernet Cable

This is high quality cable but it's also much stiffer than regular ethernet cable. This makes it more difficult to use if you're running it to a desktop or TV. You definitely need some extra loops of cable where your router or switches are so you can route it effectively. I'm not a professional but I am a pretty handy do-it -yourself guy. I make all my own ham radio cables and switches. I find this cable VERY DIFFICULT to add the RJ-45 connectors to, and I've tried several different types and brands. The cable and individual wires are heaver and stiffer than regular household ethernet cables I've made in the past. There may be some tricks that professional wiring people use but I haven't figured it out yet. You've been warned. : )

Excellent quality product. I works for my application perfectly.

Worth the money - used it for a POE++ 350FT Run - Highly recommend using the Metal shield RJ45 for CAT6A - keep in mind the industry standard and applications must be follow for proper delivery and connectivity! Highly recommend not cheeping out on the connectors and using the KLEIN CAT6A Metal shield Connectors and maybe watching a few instructional videos on proper termination and understanding why things need to be done in such manners. if done properly 10G can be achieve with the right end to end equipment 750mhz - enjoy and be patient doing the termination! not for the RUSH RUSH type of tech!!

Works great good price

exactly what I needed.

APPEARANCECable is Matte White color, interior wires are clearly color coded with no issue.HANDLING CHARACTERISTICSThis is a low-flex cable that has a much higher bending radius than other CAT cables.DURABILITYCable is extremely well made, exterior material seems to be PVC jacketed with a great deal of UV protection. Cable is foil-wrapped with cloth interior. This is probably the highest quality CAT cable I've ever seen in my professional career.SPECIFICATION ADHERENCEThis cables adheres to all of the design specifications for CAT6A (to my knowledge), networking hardware had no issues negotiating at 1000mbit (didn't try at 10Mbit) even when wire was located near power cables or at long distances.TERMINATION DIFFICULTYAll of the added features of this cable makes it extremely difficult to terminate with RJ45 Connectors (although no issue with Keystone Jacks). If you plan on terminating with RJ45 ends, I would strongly suggest buying some that are rated for CAT6a cables to accommodate this cable. During termination, I found it helpful to untwist the wires and massage the wires straight before termination. This process will take some practice and you will likely become frustrated (I did). Practice terminating on the bench before doing it in the field.OVERALL IMPRESSIONSThis is a great high quality cable when you are faced with difficult drops that have lots of EMI issues, have long transmission distances, or require outdoor runs that are exposed to sunlight. I keep a roll on the truck for these situations just in case.

No issues so far, but I wasn’t expecting any. Needed different rj45 connectors since the leads are thicker that 5 or 6a but these are easy to find.

Have been working with low voltage wiring for a long time, and plenty of cat5/6 work. It's been years since I've screwed up a termination. This cable is totally unable to pass any test. When I can actually get a jack onto it (which is rare) is always has several pairs open. I even bought the same brand's shielded RJ45 pass-thru jacks and the strands can't even fit through the holes. Maybe my spool is bad, but the individual wires are too thick for any pass-through jack, and when put into a normal jack they fail test. Glad I didn't bury this before attempting to terminate it.
