    I think I got a dud. Transmitting my 250+ Mbps internet connection at 10 Mbps. My unifi system identifies this as a poor cable, and when I swap it out with another, it is back to full speed.

    This cable wouldn’t fit into the Ethernet adapter in my place. Nothing against the product but I cannot give good feedback if it doesn’t fit.

    Price it great but I don't know if its the wired but it seems like my internet is running a lil slower than my wire. There's no problem with it but I think I would rather shell out a few more bucks for a better one

    I expected it to perform better, but I couldn't make it work for some reason. So, I had to return it. PS: I bought it as an open-box excellent option, so that could be a reason why it didn't work, not sure.

    It can get the job done. I don't really like the way the cable shield feels to the touch, but it didn't matter. It slid under the carpet just fine for my setup.

    The specs on the cable are very important

    The cable is blue so it might be the ink is unreadable but the specifications of the cable are not readily readable on the cable. Doubt if I will recall if it is a Cat 5 or a Cat6.

    Decent cable - it is a good cable for plugging a laptop, pc, etc. for streaming high def sound and picture I’d recommend a higher quality cable that can handle more content.
