Buyer Beware! Don't get sucked in by the price.
The bottom line is that this cable may work great if you have short network runs or longer runs that do not require POE. But I would advise that it is not worth saving $50 on the cable if you risk having to redo several hours of work, especially if you're putting this cable behind drywall. There are a lot of great reviews for this product and it probably works fine in most situations. What I did not realize is that this cable is not solid copper. The wire is CCA or copper clad aluminum, and it may not work well in all situations. I spent three hours installing four runs of this cable throughout a large office and later realized that any length over 50 feet could not support my POE devices (IP phones). After researching it, I found that CCA cable has issues with POE at longer lengths. I wound up purchasing solid copper cabling and replacing all of the CCA cable. I would definitely avoid CCA wire in the future.
