Cat5e Bulk Cable 500ft Pure Copper, Outdoor / Indoor Heat Resistant, Solid 350Mhz, 24AWG, UTP, Riser Rated CMR, Gray by Syston Cable

I was installing a wired (POE) surveillance system and at the same time hard-wiring my computers to my router, doing away with wifi. I've planned this project for some time and was just waiting on the winter months as I would be navigating my attic, drilling holes, fishing walls...not something you want to do in the summer! January...perfect! This cable is good stuff...solid-core...easy to pull out of the box...no tangles or kinks. The crap wire they send with these camera surveillance systems is just that...crap. I threw it out and made my own cables. Piece of cake! My only regret...not buying three boxes, could have saved my-old-a** some grief and pulled three wires at one time...you live and learn, LOL!If'n I need more wire, I'll do it all over again...worth every penny. So I purchased two 500' box's, pulled 16 runs, used 895' crimpted 32 plugs "no-runs-no-drips-no-errors! Life is good!

The Cat5e bulk cable is a great deal for the money! I was a little concerned when I started using it because there seemed to be some kinks in I right out of the box... I made sure I was gentle when installing it for my security cameras and everything worked out! I recommend this product for anyone looking for an outdoor cable for a good price.

Should have bought 3 boxes. Happy with product and ease at installing. Ran across a drop ceiling. Cable likes to link up more than other brands I have used, but was worth the money. Kinks didnt damage wiring thankfully

Good cable for the price. I spent a little more for this product for its outdoor rating. The outer jacket seems a lot thicker than a lot of other cheaper cat 5 options.However, because of this, the cable does not bend very easily. It needs a large bend radius for fear of kinking or breaking the jacket. I trust the durability of the cable more because of this, but in some installations it can be a hindrance. For instance, i wouldn't make a tight turn coming out of a wall for a flush install, but if you're using boxes or walljacks it's perfectly acceptable.

Security cameras installed and this wire was used to make it happen. Ran this in my attic, I used connecting adapters to connect to the bnc connection on my security dvr and all is good. I’d purchase this wire again. Shipping was quick, no issues.

It been 6 months since i used this cable to install 9 cameras outside my house. I waited this long to write a review as i wanted to see how they will last. So far i been having no issue with the cables. Also i didn't have any failure while i pulled this cables. Those that complaining that they are thick and hard to work with, the reality is they are made for outside so yes they are thick and that is what you want.

It is thin and a bit rigid. Used to put wall outlets in rooms running through basement and up outside of house. Only downside is it is a bit thinner in diameter then I am used to and the ends I have don't make the greatest crimp on the wire, however haven't had an end fall off yet.I am an IT professional and have run miles and miles of lines in my lifetime.

I used this the day I got it. Pulled easy and I had no problems. Hooked up a 150' run and it worked as it should.
