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.
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.

Yup... They connect my cable modem to my router, and my router to my computers. They transmit data back and forth. So far they have failed to burst into flames or snap off and poke me in the eye. So go patch cables (yay).

They sent a different product. Does not say that is made by Belkin anywhere on it. They sent me a RJ45 cable made by FOXXCONN #E204149. This does not have the protected cover 'snagless' over the release lever, as shown in the picture/item description. I'm not happy; I do not plan to buy from this company again.....

Nice gray molded patch cable works great if you're computing close to where you'll be hooked up to the network. I use this in my dorm, so I'm very close to the plug in. If you're going to be farther away from the network plug in, get a longer cable. I'd definitely recommend Belkin cables to anyone!

I was very disappointed that my 7 foot long belkin ethernet cable didn't work when I plugged it in. The other cable I ordered from Mediabridge worked perfectly.

I bought 4 of these so i could connect everything around my tv to the internet. (Xbox 360, Playstation 3, DVR, and a computer)

These cables are great, they are high quality, and have sturdy connectors. They are gigabit cables.

I stream 1080p .mkv files from my laptop to my Xbox 360 via Windows Media Center, wireless N does not cut it, but these cables do the job.

Even though I doubt I will need speeds over 100mbps, I like having gigabit cables, and I like these cables better than the cheap blue ones on amazon. The cheap blue cables have weak connectors in my experience, and have broken off.

I would definitely recommend this cable.

They work just like they should.

Always go for the snag-free design, so the little clippy thing doesn't break off due to your carelessness.

Two things I like about this cable. One is the price, which is very reasonable, and the other is the snag-proof end. The reason I needed to buy several is my old ones got snagged and broke off the arm. So far, the cables are working just fine.

I'm not sure there's a whole lot you can say about network leads, but I'll try anyway:

* It worked
* the covering on the cable wasn't cracked anywhere
* The RJ45 connectors were intact and undamaged
* I liked the grey, it really brought my room together

Yeah, that's about all folks.

This cable was used not new as described, very disappointed with this supplier sending used cables. Will not order again from them!
