None of those things you mentioned use greater than gigabit bandwidth.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It's a good entry-level ethernet cable. If you're using it for a direct connection, then you'll get 1000 Mbps. However, if you're using it as a patch cable between a modem & WiFi router (which is what I did), consider a shielded Cat8 patch cable for optimal frequency & speed rate. I have Cox Gigablast, and got 7% more WiFi speed by upgrading to a shielded Cat8 despite the fact that there should be no difference in data speeds. A Cat8 is built better bc it's shielded & you can also get Cat8 cables made with 30AWG copper vs 26AWG copper for better performance. For $10 more, it's definitely worth the bump up in performance.
