> 24 hourFast speeds I dont have speeds fast enough to max this cable out but it is as fast as my other cables. It is rigid, solid and well built.

> 24 hourThey wish they made this one! Solid, gold-plated, indoor/outdoor, buriable and insane speed capable with some of the toughest plug ends Ive ever seen. They give you the brad tacs to even run it along your baseboard into another location and while straight-up distances over 25ft usually dont do the best with this being CAT 8 forgettaboutit! Length choices too but about 50% less than the competition of other cables. Cable plugs have sturday clips on them too, most of the time if the cable gets puled you break those tabs on the plug and youre stuck. Here itd take some serious work to even crack one! I dont have Gig Fiber or 8K to test, but Im solid into 4K and CAT 6e and this outperformed the standards so Im happy!

> 24 hourThis cable is just what I needed. I needed a cable thar was long enough to run from my router on one side of my room to my Docking station that was on the other side of the room. Ive been using the cable for a week now and running speed tests on different sites and receiving the same results. I love this cable and would recommend this cable to anyone who is looking to update their speed and not use wifi. I did not use the hooks and nails that came with the package.

> 24 hourI have a Google Chromecast located on a TV far enough from the WiFi router that it glitches on 4K streaming content sometimes, so when I saw this, I decided to wire it up to ethernet. It solved my issues. It is an old-school round cable, not flat, but its not so stiff that you cant maneuver it around furniture and obstacles. I have it running under an area rug to get across a hallway, and although you can slightly feel it under the rug, it feels like it wont wear through, and so far there have been no issues. Even though I didnt have to go too far, the 50 foot length gave me enough length to go behind couches, along floors, etc. with not too much left over. The connectors themselves are high-quality as well. I would highly recommend this if you dont mind the round cable style as opposed to flat.

> 24 hourI read that a CAT 8 would be over kill for a home set up but I love it with myself gaming as well as my husband and my kids using their electronics. It’s a great length as well.

> 24 hourIm reviewing the MEIPEK brand Ethernet cable described as: Cat 8 Shielded Ethernet Cable 30ft, Heavy Duty High Speed Network LAN Cable 40Gbps 2000Mhz, SFTP Shielded Cat 8 Internet Cable Direct Burial, Gold Plated RJ45 Cable for Gaming/Modem/Router(10 Clips) I needed a 30 Ethernet cable that was rugged and shielded enough to run outdoors between my upstairs router and a TV downstairs that was installed in just such a location as to not get sufficient Wifi reception from any of my three Wifi routers. This cable is doing the job perfectly! Like many buyers, I dont actually need Cat8 speeds (if you are lucky enough to have Gigabit fiber Ethernet to your home, that only requires Cat5 on your LAN to keep up unless you have a lot of fast devices trying to talk to each other on your local network), but its good to future proof. The boots on the jacks are well constructed and dont look like theyll break easily (a common failure point on Ethernet cables). The outer jacket looks exactly like what Id expect for an SFTP cable suited for direct burial -- good quality, thick PVC. The only thing that was a detractor was that they included white cable clips for a black cable. Fortunately I had some black clips to use, so I didnt use the ones they sent. Overall, this is a cable thats a good value at its price point (currently $23.99).

> 24 hourThis cable works so well that I ended up buying more so I can rewire my whole house. Im getting max speeds and I see no drops in connection like I was experiencing with an old cable. Highly recommended for upgrading your network!

> 24 hourThis 50-foot ethernet cable is top-quality. While Ive got no test to prove its made off oxygen-free copper, I can say it does facilitate high-speed data transfer. Connected to a gigabit ethernet switch, uploads and downloads are fast, and precise- even at the 50-foot length of this cable! Construction quality is the real story, though. This cable is professional-quality, featuring a THICK PVC jacket, gold-plated shielding on the connectors, and plastic reinforcement boots where the cable meets the connectors. The cable is thick, but highly-compliant- for easy runs, and the connectors look and feel robust. As a nice touch, the cable came with a packet of 15 cable clips, with tacks. This is a very nice cable.

> 24 hourThis was a perfect upgrade for me! I am almost embarrassed to admit it was replacing a cat 5 configuration. So the upgrade was very noticeable immediately! The cable is longer than I actually need which is great for flexibility when hooking it up or changing it around. The included hangers were easy to use and keep my data cables from being a completely tangled mess! The cable was not wound so tight that it was difficult to unroll and place like Id like which has been a common problem with other cables Ive had lately. I didnt run a speed test but I could definitely tell there was a huge upgrade. The connector ends are made well and are tight in the port but also easy to remove. I tested unplugging/plugging it several times and dont feel it will break at the tab like many cheaper-made cables Ive had in the past.
