I understand a lot of people giving this a good review due to being a very good deal. As a deal this product sale rated a 5, it was fabulously cheap for what it is. As a PRODUCT, it's good. Works fine. But it isn't as sturdy as better cables, it's a bit flimsy honestly. If you are not going to be moving the cable around a lot, if you are just going to plug it in and leave it, it will hold up great! Go for it. If you are looking for a more resilient cable that can withstand many unpluggings and repluggings and being stepped on and so on, this cable won't do for you at all. This is more meant to be a stationary solution for when you need a nice long cable. I can't see it withstanding a lot of abuse though.

good price good quilty cable would not buy from any one else very happy with it .

Decent price, good quality terminations, arrived quickly

Belkin is a name that I've come to trust over the years. When I went looking for 100 feet of Cat 5 to run all the way through the house, through the walls and floors, I knew I did not want to get a cable which would be less than trustworthy... who wants to pull all that out to find a problem! So I went with the Belkin cable. It wasn't the cheapest one that Amazon had, but I trust the name. And I have had no problems.

I bought this to run a line from the den (where the router is) to the living room so that we could connect our Xbox 360 to the internet without handing over even more money to Microsoft for the wireless adapter. It's been working well for a few years now. Also survived a splice job I had to do when my puppy chewed on it.

Belkin is a great name in cables and you can buy 100ft. of RJ45 on Amazon cheaper than just about anywhere else. Why try?

This cable worked great and was a great bargain when I purchased it. However, I moved recently and the cable no longer worked when I installed it at my new residence. Granted high tech wiring is a little more touchy than say power cables but I had 100's of feet of CAT-5 survive a dozen moves during college and my roommates and I weren't exactly delicate during install and removal; or better termed "rip-out". I would recommend going with a different brand in hopes of getting a different manufacturer and more resilient construction.

Well, you can't really say much about network cables besides mentioning whether it works, connects smoothly at the ends, and provides a good signal transmission, especially if the cable is at least 100ft long.

It does all three of the above, but I could not give it 5 stars because of an aesthetic issue - the cable is not white. It is dark gray, and it does not blend well with the wall corners that it travels along from room to room. If there was an available white version at the time that I purchased this I would definitely give it 5 stars!

Also, to be honest about the pricing, if you look hard enough online you can find reputable branded CAT6 cables (which has better signal tranmission and more physically durability) for about the same price as this CAT5e one. But since I was ordering this for my dad, and he wanted to use this for his internet TV, it was sufficient for his needs.

I play my Xbox 360 online all the time. I personally didn't want to connect it to a wireless network. I bought this ethernet cable instead and it works perfectly. I can hook up my Xbox to any televsion in my apartment and still have cable to spare. Definitely a great deal!

I bought this cable for hooking up my new Sony Blu-Ray player to the internet. I needed to run a line from my first floor to my basement where I have the Blu-Ray and did not think wireless would work well for streaming video. Cable was of good quality - and I am watching streaming video now.
