Bought this as I needed to make some cables.Quick note for anyone who needs POE, do not get "CCA"You need 100% copper.Not copper clad Aluminum like this.This works fine for simple not poe jobs.

Installed 140ft of this cable from the pull box and it dispensed easily with no snags or tangles thanks!

This is a high quality small roll of cat5e cable. If you are running your own and need to have something on hand that takes up little space, this is a great product.

Got this to wire up some POE cameras and hard wire smart devices around the house. Pulled the first 30ft run to the cam, and no connection. Re-did the heads multiple times and no good. Tester kept reading open. Pulled a second 20 ft run to the TV and same thing. Opens on the green and white/green. I used to do field work in data centers and we would punch down sometimes 200 cat-5 connections a day, so I have some experience running wire. This wire is junk and has turned what should've been an easy job into now multiple wasted heads and a lot of wasted time. I can't trust the rest of the box and it's too late to return so it is going to get scrapped. Do no buy.

Hard cable, there is no length count in feet on the cable, it's just black. So when you are using, you never know how much is left in the box , aluminum wire painted copper color, and finally made in China

We like how sturdy this cable is and we have really reliable connection in the buildings using it.

I used this cable to install POE cameras on the rooftop of a business in freezing temperatures! The cable tested fine for continuity after terminating, but the transfer rate was too low to power the devices. Had to rerun all of the cable with another brand and the devices powered with no issues. Double the work in freezing weather! I will never buy this product again, and I will never, ever take a risk with cheap, low cost cabling again!

I don't know what Sheerness and Stretch have to do with this cable or how to rate it on those terms. I do know that this cable is Well Worth the money. It's got an outer and inner sheath. The wire being CCA (Copper Clad Aluminum) is very easy to work with. The outer sheathing is not UV rated according to the manufacturer but I think it will hold up outside without being buried. I only use these cables for my Christmas display. Prior to this, I used economy grade cables and had nothing but problems. Each cable used a different wiring standard and caused many problems over the years... I am very pleased with this purchase and will never "CHEAP OUT" again... As my wife has told me many times, "You get what you pay for!" I got a great price on this cable and the 1000 ft will last me a lifetime...

I have been using this to wire my house for internet, as well as all of my POE cameras. I have not had a single failure in the 30 or so runs that I have made so far. I have used about 300' of cable so far. I will admit that this cable is very stiff, mostly due to the protective outer cladding.I was hesitant about using copper clad aluminum as I've seen some people have had issues with it. I have one run of about 100' going from my main office to my server rack in the garage. I have transferred about 6TB of data over this line at full gigabit speeds, I haven't had any problems whatsoever. I would recommend this cable to anyone needing it. I would also recommend that you route this under the house or in conduit. It doesn't make clean straight lines when stapling to the side of your house.

We have to run MILES of Cabling here on the ranch.. We use this cabling not only for Cat-5e Connections, and remote Repeaters on our Ranch, but I have even used this cable to run Streaming Security Video Camera Signals back a Quarter of a Mile from our Automatic Gates to the DVR Systems here in the house.. not so much as a flicker, and even the Hot SC sun didn't damage it.. at some point, it "Buried itself"... which was an unexpected benefit! ;)UPDATE: 19 May 2016... We had a failure with two cameras mounted HIGH on the Cupola on top of the house (Exposed to the weather). I climbed up there on the outside of the house multiple times trying to find bad connections (Other Cameras wouldn't work on those lines either). I checked everything inside the house where the BNC connectors connected to the DVR... Nothing. I decided to replace those runs of cable while adding "Screw Tightening Video Baluns" ("VIMVIP® 6 PAIRS (12 Pcs) Mini CCTV BNC Video Balun Transceiver Cable") and "Screw Tightening Power Connectors" ("Maxmoral 12 Pair (12 x Male + 12 x Female) DC Power Jack 5.5mm x 2.1mm CCTV Power Jack Adapter") (BOTH of which are AWESOME products themselves! Buy LOTS of them, they are cheap!) But when I cut open the Heat Shrink Tubing Behind the Security System's DVR inside the house, Nasty water POURED out from the INSIDE of the cable, and I found that the Wire Pairs were ALL corroded and broken! Water had infiltrated into the inside of the Cat-5's Outer Sheath (despite the Heat-Shrink Tubing at the soldered wiring at the Cameras on top of the house) and Siphoned down inside the Sheath about 100 feet and right up through the flooring and to the back of the DVR! This IS NOT A FAULT WITH THE CABLING! I "Thought" I had sealed the connections outside to be water-tight, but obviously I had not. Since the Wiring starts HIGH on the house, the water was able to go down the inside of the cabling to the basement, and then all the way back UP through the floor of our security center, and on up to the DVR which sits high on a Wall Shelf. I now use a "Sealing Gel" on ALL outside connections, which stopped the Cabling's WELL SEALED Outer Sheath from acting as a Siphon hose :) STILL an EXCELLENT product, and with the Video Baluns (Mentioned above), I can now run 4 cameras per Cat-5 Cable (With a separate Heavy Power Cable for 12VDC), up to a half mile with PERFECT High-Def Clarity!

The main issue I had was the "pull from box" concept, it only worked for about 60 feet then stopped coming out. So I opened the box pulled the wire back through. I then had a 1000 foot coil of wire on one arm as I paid it out along my 600 foot journey through the woods to my destination, rotating the coil regularly to reduce the amount of coil memory in the wire. I had to cut the wire in half so that I could rotate the wires some more to get it to lay flat.
