1.0 out of 5 stars Was shipped cheap generics instead from Citi Electronics, April 11, 2010

Beware buying this product from the vendor "Citi Electronics." They shipped me generic no-name brand cables, instead of the unique Cables-To-Go snagless custom boots. The "generics" are like typical Ethernet cables with the thick molded boot that fully encapsulates the plastic tab used to unlock the cable from a jack. I've found trying to press on this thick "thumb bump" boot to push on the tab difficult to use and sometimes I have to pull the boot back in order to press directly on the tab to properly disengage it. It seems these generic boots are just too large and may actually be pressed up against the jack housing causing tension on the jack and making disengagement harder (hence my need to peel back the boot or forcibly push the cable further into the jack to unload the tension on the tab).

Which is why I now use the Cables-To-Go snagless versions as it uses a light and small vinyl flap that rests on the plastic locking tab to aid in disengaging yet allows easy unobstructed view and access to this tab to ensure you are properly disengaging it without adding any stress or tension to the connection.

This review is from: Cables To Go 27142 Cat6 550 MHz Snagless Patch Cable, Blue (7 Feet) (Personal Computers)

I got three different colors from Citi (7 ft model)
They were NOT as pictured.
Instead of a very flexible snagfree tab, they had a tiny hard nob in its place.
Much harder to release ... it did release though.
No markings of any sort stating that they were Cables to Go.
I have others that are Cables to go and they were as pictured with a flexible snagfree tab that worked great.
Bottom line is that Citi sent a different item, the Cables to go as pictured are great.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not the brand "Cables to Go" also Not as Pictured, October 12, 2010

Not the brand "Cables to Go" also Not as Pictured
Was not snagfree type.
This was from Seller CiTi.
Other sellers are probably okay such as Amazon or TigerDirect
In which case if truly as pictured and truly "Cables to Go"
Then a FIVE STAR would be fitting.
