Product Description: What is a Category 5e patch cable? Think of it as the street that links the house on your block and all the destinations in town. In actuality, it's a cable used to connect all the hardware destinations in a Local Area Network (LAN).This RJ45 Cat 5e patch is perfect for use with 10/100/1000 Base-T networks.
Deceptive Offer - Not Belkin Product I purchased these patch cables with the understanding these were FACTORY TERMINATED patch cables from Belkin. The ad picture even shows a picture of a REAL Belkin cable, with factory terminated RJ45's.
What I received was some Belkin cable with a HAND TERMINATED RJ45! If I wanted this, I could have made myself. I don't believe just because Belkin cable is used, this can be called a "Belkin Patch Cable".
The cost was cheap and I need the cables yesterday, so I had to use them. Not worth the effort and time to return. So far, no problems, but I won't buy these again and recommend others don't. But I worry about the cables being used in production. It's an unnecessary risk that will surely cause a service call later.
Does the job. It bears repeating. HDMI cables pass a digital signal, in other words 1's and 0's or on and off pulses. Like HD TV you either have a perfect signal or none at all.
Buy the cheapest cable you can find.
It's cheap and it works! There's not much to say about a cable. Either it works or it doesn't. But here's the important thing: this Belkin cable works just as well as identical cables priced five times higher at my local office supply store. I'm very pleased with my purchase and consider it a great value.
Works Well What can I say? I does what it's supposed to do. No problems and good price.
What Can You Say About A Cable? I wanted to expand my ethernet network to include a second computer in a remote office. With only one cable going to this location I needed a switch and two more cables.
These cables have a very low price, and the length assured me the needed flexibility in locating the equipment in the room. I installed the switch, attached the computers with two of these cables and was back in business.
The cables are doing a great job and everything is working as it should.
