GearIT Cat 6 Ethernet Cable (24-Pack 1.5 Feet) Cat6 Network Patch, 10Gbps, RJ45, Snagless Cord, Gold-Plated Connectors, Internet for PC, TV, Tablet, Router, Printer, Servers, IT Data Center - Blue

I purchased these for short runs where the switch is directly above/below the patch panel. While these are good in theory, they are too thick to be good in practice. They will connect and they will work, but there is obvious stress on the connectors.If you're using these for straight or up to 120 degree connections, then these are absolutely ideal. If you try and flip these 180 degrees to patch a device from a patch cable, you'll notice that there's just a bit too much there to make a good connection. They'll work, and they'll probably look good from afar, but I wouldn't want to use these long term in a situation like that.If they sold 7" -8" cables or reduced the thickness ever so slightly, that'd probably fix the problem.

So far, the cables are just fine. No issues.

Good quality!

great product

Bought some of these in 1', 1.5' and 2' lengths to use in a new install. Cables are great quality and the throughput and performance was great. The only issue I have is the snagless jacket is extremely hard to press down when trying to remove it from a switch or patch panel. I used a flat head screw driver to press it down and it was fine. Since they won't be getting removed much is doesn't matter, but that "button" is stiff and hard to press.

Overall they are good patch cables! The one thing I disliked about them is that the rubber part that goes over the clip is VERY hard to press down. If you’re going to use them, i would add them last because pulling them out can be difficult, especially if you have them in a rack with tight cables connected together.Gave it 4 starts because I believe this could be addressed in the manufacturing process.

the retaining clip cover is very stiff which makes the cable hard to unplug.

purchased for business use ... received on time and in good shape, works as needed.

Bonne construction, aucun cordon défectueux

Good for the price and never ran across any bad cables

I am using Ubiquiti UDM-Pro SE and other switches.at this point, i needed only 2 patch panel cables, After installing the first one, my system indicated a connection of 100 MBs, I took another cable, and this one was good, showing 1GB.This action was repeated with another connection.I still have 20 unused cables, but i suspect it's going to be the same, even if it's not, I still have 2 bad cables in the package.I do not want to start sending it back, it will cost me more time than the value.

So far I have had no issues with the performance of the cables however the retaining boots have to be the worst in the industry. I've been installing network equipment since the 90's and these boots are the hardest to compress. I had to replace a switch and disconnect 24 cables, after disconnecting 5 I grabbed a pair of pliers due to how difficult it was to squeeze the boot enough to release the retaining clip. I'll avoid using GearIT for my next cable purchase.

Great built quality CTA6 real deal. I will keep the link to GearIT so I can purchase easely some industrial quality IT product again.
