1,000ft Bulk Cat6 Ethernet Cable Wire, Outdoor Direct Burial

Well made cable. It does make it a little hard to strip and add the ends, but I was putting this in the barn so I needed it to be a good cable.

How do you say good things about a cable? Well, let's try. Strength - Excellent. Super thick cover, as well as an extra sleeved layer inside. If you are running this cable inside or outside, it is hard to beat. It takes a lot of torque to break or stretch, which is what you want. Unwinding - Very Good. I had no problems at all pulling the cable from the box. Looks - Good. It looks like and is about the same size as coaxial cable. So you can run it parallel to the existing cable wire for a cleaner look, or you can use the same cable management clips/nails. That's a good thing because stuff like that for coax is more widely available. After running the cable and punching it down to the keystones, they worked first try. Overall I am very happy with this cable.

Good price and quality.

This is a good product at a great price. I am currently using it to do long runs via PVC pipe 300ft+. I tested the cable and it performs really good. This is not pure copper so it is not ideal for long power over ethernet runs. Other than that great cable @ even better price. The only negatives is that it is really hard to: 1 remove case since it's has water and regular casing 2 Since it's not standard size sometimes the wires get cut then stripping case 3 hard to bend 4 hard to put heads on However in my opinion the price + the fact that is is waterproof makes this the best cable for outdoor long runs. (as long as no power over Ethernet is needed). I just connected it to a switch on the other end and from there use other cable that is easier to install. Now get some more in stock so I can buy 3 more boxes!

After hours of putting ends on this cable and using almost over 100 feet I have decided this cable is nothing but garbage. I have split open the cable and I found out after pulling the cable from the box internally the wires break. This is a true waste of money.

As mentioned by others, this is a CCA (copper clad aluminum) cable which is poorly suited for PoE applications and any installation with more than mild bending. Exceed that mild bend and you are *very* likely to loose connectivity. Crimped and tested 4x cables about 8 feet in length before running them on a roof-mount pole for an access point and a couple cameras. Every cable desk tested fine but when installing, the first cable wasn't working. Removed it, re-crimped it and re-tested it fine. Back on the pole it failed to work again. Found that moving the cable around to have as little bend as possible allowed it to work. Trying the other cables that previously desk tested fine showed the same lost connectivity issue. Not using this cable for a rooftop install where the wind blowing might cause connections to drop. I'd advise you to think carefully about using CCA cable for anything really; it's cheap and *might* work for your application but you better be absolutely sure the cable won't move much and will not require even mild bending or you're just wasting time with this.

good cable

This box of CAT6 cable was used to run cable between the house and an RV. It worked perfectly. We did need to fully open the box due to the cable being twisted and not feeding through the box opening smoothly, but no big deal. It works great.

Good quality cable, perfect for outdoor use. Is strong and durable.

High speed

The system works great, Easy to install, Great purchase. Use it at a rental property to keep my eye on the property. Very happy Sharon at Somnet was fantastic. She phoned me a number of times to help me with my questions. I was very impressed by the service. Very easy to understand her English as well. She was very professional and knowledgable.

This stuff is high quality. Thick, Very easy to work with, strips nicely, and from leaving it in the rain uncovered for a month, holds up. I started replacing my indoor Ethernet cables with this stuff as well since it will hold up to a chair rolling over it, or a cable being yanked out. The black outer is a nice touch as well.

Muy buena calidad y precio
