• A:Answer Personally, the cable feels and looks very thick, with some sort of rubber coating on it, as most ethernet cables get really brittle, which actually warranted me purchasing this.

Q: Questioni've seen the reviews on this and the essentials ethernet cables stating that these cables don't actually go to 1gb and only produce 100mbps, has this issue been fixed or is it false advertisement on the specifications, if so what is the model# that can

Asked 7 months ago by Jarrett.

• A:Answer The CAT versions are set by the IEEE organization. You might see manufacturing defects but in many years of working in the computer industry, I have not run into a factory made cable that failed to pass signal as intended. Because copper wires can receive interference from electric wires and light fixtures, there are rules in which it should be run. If running along the side of 110/115v, it should be 1 foot away. If crossing 110/115v then you want to do so at 90 degrees. Florescent lights also cause interference. The quality of your equipment can also determine the speed as does the length of the run. It does no good to buy a CAT 6 cable if any of your gear is rated at 100MB.
