Jadaol Cat 6 Ethernet Cable 1 ft 5 Pack, Outdoor&Indoor, 10Gbps Support Cat8/7 Network, 24AWG Pure Copper Patch LAN Cord, Direct Burial Waterproof UV Resistant for Router, Modem, Switch, Server, Black

Recently, I had a 1Gb fiber Internet connection installed. While the upgrade was exciting, only one computer was truly benefiting from the full speed. To extend that advantage to my office laptop, I needed a long Ethernet cable. After some research, I discovered that slim Cat6 cables—specifically the 100-foot versions—were actually cheaper than traditional round Ethernet cables. Since slim cables still use twisted pairs (just laid out side-by-side with slightly less insulation), I figured it was worth trying. Plus, the slim design had some extra appeal (smiles).When the cable arrived, I was immediately impressed. It’s very slim, flat, and far more flexible than my other flat cables. Honestly, it was kind of fun unwinding it from the box—it felt almost like handling a ribbon rather than a cable. The 100-foot length ended up being the perfect choice for my setup, giving me just the right amount of slack depending on how I ran it.Originally, I planned to run the cable under the carpet (a much shorter and more hidden path), but once I had it in hand, I realized the flat, white design had another advantage: it blended perfectly with my baseboards. Instead of hiding it under flooring, I was able to run it neatly along the lower edge of the walls and around door frames without it standing out. No need to drill holes for passthroughs or invest in bulky floor cable protectors—this cable hides beautifully in plain sight.A box of about 35 cable clips was included, which made the installation neat and professional-looking. Just a quick note: when using the clips, be careful not to overtighten and pinch the cable. Take your time, and it’s a breeze to set up.Once installed, I still had about 4 feet of extra cable left over. I plugged it in, and boom—everything just worked. All indicator lights were green. My laptop’s connection is now rock solid: latency is practically nonexistent, downloads are lightning fast, and buffering during video streams is gone. I ran multiple speed tests to verify, and sure enough, I’m getting every bit of speed that I’m paying for.Overall, for the price, this is a fantastic long Ethernet cable—quality build, excellent performance, and it maintains full data integrity. I was so impressed that I immediately ordered two additional 35-foot slim Cat6 cables to replace some old bulky ones elsewhere in my setup. It’s so satisfying to have a fast, reliable network and keep things looking clean and uncluttered. Highly recommend!

No issues with these cables. Bought 2 pairs to run along baseboards to extend our residential LAN. One run went down a stairway to a 2nd router node for wired backhaul, which required multiple awkward bends due to weird angles. Corners can be a problem depending on how you orient them--I had them laying flat along the top of the baseboards and I had to kind of "pinch" them into place for a few 45 degree bends, but the cables seem quite flexible and durable. When it comes to rounding corners, the round cables would be a bit easier to work with, but in general flat cables are just so much easier to anchor down and are far more inconspicuous. The other cable just went to a bedroom, up and over multiple door mouldings and along baseboards.In both cases the cable pretty much disappears against clean, white trim.Haven't noticed any drops in speed and my latency is super low. Getting what our ISP advertises (500 Mbps+).The included clips are kinda flimsy and ugly, but they work fine as long as you're not yanking lengths of the cable through them (if you're not careful you will wiggle the clips out of the drywall). For most of the run I used 1/4" double sided tape that I had laying around instead. 1/4" is the perfect width! I had picked this tape up from a local arts & crafts store, it holds the cable effortlessly.Turns out I used the same Jadaol brand flat cables in my last apartment. I didn't recognize the name at first, but Amazon said I last bought these 7 years ago, so this company has been around for a while. They worked fine then, and they work fine now.Would definitely recommend these. Great value!

Recently, installed 1Gb fiber Internet, but only one computer could benefit from the speed. The cost of the slim Cat 6 cable at 100’ was cheaper than the regular ‘round’ ethernet cables so one was ordered to connect the office laptop. After all, slims are still twisted pairs, just paired side-by-side buddy style and with a little less insulation (smiles).The cable that arrived is definitely slim, flat and flexible and thinner than my other flat. I do have to admit it was fun unwinding it from the box to use. Anyway, the 100 feet length was a good choice for my distance and it left me with footage left over depending on configuration. As things would have it, I forgot that instead of running the cable under the carpet (a much shorter distance), there are some things that the slim cable can do more effectively than the round ethernet. Namely, to operate in plain site. The cable being flat & white blends in perfectly with my baseboards. I had the footage to go around the lower baseboards of the walls and up/down the door frames into my office. The cable is now hidden in plain sight without having to drill holes in the wall for a pass through or use cable protectors on the floor. You will need to be careful when installing the cable clips (a box of 35 was included) to avoid damaging or pinching, but otherwise it’s a breeze. The cable is now hidden in plain sight. This solution left me with approximately 4 feet left over. From the moment it was plugged in, it worked and all lights green. I have great signal quality. Latency is practically nil and buffering is a thing of the past. I went ahead and ran a few tests, and it confirmed download/upload speeds and reliability consistent to what is being charged. Overall, this is a great price for a super long, quality build, fast ethernet cable that maintains data integrity. I am very happy with performance of this cable and it’s ability to “hide” that I have ordered 2 additional (each 35 feet) to replace regular ethernets that can now be hidden. Go for it!
