This a very high quality. It is extremely easy to use and set up this cable, and so far it has worked fabulously. patskates@yahoo.com

These Belkin category 5e cables are well made. They are a good overall gauge thickness and the snag less ends are very beneficial. You may have experienced the problem of untangling a phone cord, only to have the clip on the end bend over or worse yet snap off. The next time you use that cord it doesn't have anything to keep it in the wall. Well what Belkin did with these snag less cables was put twin ridges made out of a rubbery plastic, that puts the snap in clip in a valley down below the ridges. So if you are untangling, those ridges prevent other wires from snagging the clip. That is a great idea. That is not enough to make you want to buy the cable, if it weren't for the fact that it is overall a great cable. The seven-foot length is good for a small patch area, like when connecting your modem to a router, or when your cable or DSL modem and/or router are right next to your computer. This 25 footer is of course great for making a farther across the room connection.
The other nice thing is the price here at Amazon on these cables. I went into the local nationally famous office supply, and they were half again as much money. So overall it is a very nice combination. They also don't slow down your connection at all. I get the same exact connection speed when using the online speed tests when I use the 50-foot, or the 7-foot.
Highly recommended. Buy it here at Amazon and save the money.

Plugged it in, worked fine. It's a nice off-white/grayish color, so it won't draw too much attention. Recommended.

Great for use with wired networks. Recommended for small network systems. If you're planning to network more than ten computers and you're tending more towards hassle free installations, then I would recommend you get wireless networking products instead. But for my network of three computers, these cables fit the job perfectly.

Color is gray'ish-white, but i found it to be plain enough to not draw attention.

Anyone who knows anything about patch cables would understand that the way belkins patch cables are packaged add undue stress to the cable.... The cable is wound too tight to fit in the small packaging. StarTech.com, Panduit and Nordx are the only companies I have seen that properly package CAT5E cables.. So buyer beware...

Great basic cable. No complaints. AND it doesn't have those annoying rubber covers! (does anyone find those useful? What are they really for?!?)

I don't know anything about the quality of this item, because I received it in the mail today. However, the item is GRAY and NOT almond-colored as shown.
