Impressed with the shielding.
I’m renting, don’t have attic access, and wanted a proper hardwired connection—so yes, I ran this 50ft Cable Matters Cat 6A cable from my router to my PC through exterior. Sue me. I reused existing pathways from the old landline telephone infrastructure, which honestly felt more like upgrading the house than doing anything sketchy.I had to cut and re-terminate one end to make the run, which gave me a look at the internals. The construction is solid. Overall shield with a drain wire, plus individually foil-shielded twisted pairs. That’s exactly what you want for Cat 6A to control EMI and crosstalk. The conductors are flexible and don’t hold their shape like solid core, which is normal for stranded patch cable—not a quality issue.Performance-wise, it delivers. I’m seeing noticeably better and more consistent speeds with lower latency compared to the cable it replaced.Is this an outdoor-rated CMX cable? No. Is it protected, properly routed, and working perfectly fine in a rental with limited options? Yes. And for the price, this cable punches well above its weight and actually feels like it meets spec instead of just wearing the Cat 6A label.Ver másVer menos
