> 3 dayI 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.

Greater than one weekMy husband is radiologist who works from home. In order to transfer CT and MRI scans from the hospital network to his home workstation (6 monitors!!!) we need commercial-grade internet connectivity. With a recent hospital PACS system upgrade he needed a higher caliber ethernet cable. Although Cat 8 is way over-engineered and overkill it definitely works and is future-proofing his workstation.

> 3 dayI received the Cat 8 Ethernet Cable 50 ft, SFTP Gold Plated RJ45 Shielded LAN Network Cable, and Im impressed with the quality and performance of this cable. First off, the construction of this cable is top-notch. The gold-plated RJ45 connectors and shielded design provide excellent protection against interference and noise, ultimately creating a stable and fast connection. The line is also sturdy and durable, making it a reliable choice for everyday use. But what sets this cable apart is its speed. I use it to connect my Mac Mini M1 to my network, and it works flawlessly with the 10GB LAN port, delivering fast data transfer rates. As a result, I can transfer large files and stream high-resolution videos without any lag or buffering. Overall, I highly recommend this Cat 8 Ethernet Cable to anyone needing a high-quality, high-speed Ethernet cable. Its an excellent choice for gamers, content creators, and anyone demanding a reliable and fast network connection. I also appreciate the length of this Cat 8 Ethernet Cable - 50 ft is more than enough for my needs and provides plenty of flexibility regarding where I can place my devices. I am extremely satisfied with my purchase and highly recommend this cable to anyone looking for a high-quality and reliable Ethernet connection.

> 3 dayThis 50 ft. cable has a good weight to it due to the purity of the copper wires it uses. The connectors and boots are done well. Im sure this cable is going to last for many years to come. It was nice to have some cable clamp/mounts included in case you want use them. Im very pleased with this cable and happy that I got it.

> 3 dayThis Cat 8 Ethernet Cable is very heavy duty and well made. Its waterproof so it can be used on outside runs. It claims a rating of 40gbps 2000 MHz Speed and has internal shielding. The end plugs are well made and gold plated. The actual cable is round and came with nailing mounting clips. Because this is heavy duty shielded cable it isnt as flexible as standard cat 5/6. This would make a great cable to run between two close locations (i.e. main house and detached garage or outbuilding). Good stuff.

30-11-2024This 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!

> 3 dayThe cat 8 cable worked perfect for me, i needed to run a cable from my router to pc and it came with the clips to hang it so I didnt have to run it along the floor. The cable is rather thick compared to most ethernet cables but wasnt an issue overall. You can bend it and it holds the shape you want.

Greater than one weekThis is some seriously well made ethernet cable. If youre upgrading to a higher throughput cable, youve come to the right spot, as this is the highest speed cable spec you can at the moment -- Cat 8. I got this MEIPEK cable replace some ancient Cat 5 cable for my home setup as Im planning to upgrade my local LAN to 10 gigabits this year. I do not have that installed yet so I cannot test that level of throughput but can vouch for it handling gigabit just fine. I can also attest to the high build quality, so I feel like youre getting value for money with this brand. The pricing is competitive, so even if you do not have immediate plans for higher than gigabit, why would you go for a lower standard now? The only potential downside to this cable would be that it is the standard thick round form factor. Depending on where you plan to install the cable, one of the flat style cables might work better. Im not reducing my rating of 5 stars for that since it is a known feature, and doesnt matter for my installation. There are plenty of competitors in this market, so I cant say that it is better than all the rest, but I can say that I doubt any are better.

Greater than one weekI chose this CAT8 cable for its indoor/outdoor rating and its suitable for direct underground bury without conduit. This is perfect for an upcoming project requiring roughly 20ft of cable to be buried underground between the main residence and a detached garage with office space. This CAT8 cable is backwards compatible with current 10/100/1000mbps equipment and will simplify upgrading my network equipment in the future up to 40 Gigabit speeds. This is top of the line cable that is design supported the fastest network transmission speeds. I highly recommend this to anyone that has an outdoor or underground application or to anyone wishing to futureproof their current network infrastructure.
