VIVO Waterproof 1,000ft Bulk Cat6 Wire, CCA Ethernet Cable, 23 AWG, UTP Pull Box, Outdoor Direct Burial, Black, CABLE-V007

How do you say good things about a cable? Well, let's try.Strength - Excellent. Super thick cover, as well as an extra sleeved layer inside. If you are running this cable inside or outside, it is hard to beat. It takes a lot of torque to break or stretch, which is what you want.Unwinding - Very Good. I had no problems at all pulling the cable from the box.Looks - Good. It looks like and is about the same size as coaxial cable. So you can run it parallel to the existing cable wire for a cleaner look, or you can use the same cable management clips/nails. That's a good thing because stuff like that for coax is more widely available.After running the cable and punching it down to the keystones, they worked first try.Overall I am very happy with this cable.

Well, what can I say? It's the best bulk cable you can get, and also the best price you will find! I make cables almost every day, and this has made me already a decent ammount of money. It's great for cabling racks, and also perfect for running it underground. Done some speed tests with this after running over 100 feet of cable, and it was perfect! Also making lots of cables to sell at my store! Very good money making product! Highly recommended for any computer technician, network admin, or anyone else who works with network devices, security systems, and really anything else that uses any type of wiring! I have used this in several non network related projects for running low voltage over long distances!

This is cat6, solid, not weak but great for the right network.

This wire pvc covering is thick and very stiff and a bit hard to deal with, but I think it's made this way for durability so all good.I ran some cable through the attic and some along the roofline. It tested great and works as expected.

As mentioned by others, this is a CCA (copper clad aluminum) cable which is poorly suited for PoE applications and any installation with more than mild bending. Exceed that mild bend and you are *very* likely to loose connectivity.Crimped and tested 4x cables about 8 feet in length before running them on a roof-mount pole for an access point and a couple cameras. Every cable desk tested fine but when installing, the first cable wasn't working. Removed it, re-crimped it and re-tested it fine. Back on the pole it failed to work again. Found that moving the cable around to have as little bend as possible allowed it to work. Trying the other cables that previously desk tested fine showed the same lost connectivity issue.Not using this cable for a rooftop install where the wind blowing might cause connections to drop. I'd advise you to think carefully about using CCA cable for anything really; it's cheap and *might* work for your application but you better be absolutely sure the cable won't move much and will not require even mild bending or you're just wasting time with this.

This is a good product at a great price. I am currently using it to do long runs via PVC pipe 300ft+. I tested the cable and it performs really good. This is not pure copper so it is not ideal for long power over ethernet runs. Other than that great cable @ even better price.The only negatives is that it is really hard to:1 remove case since it's has water and regular casing2 Since it's not standard size sometimes the wires get cut then stripping case3 hard to bend4 hard to put heads onHowever in my opinion the price + the fact that is is waterproof makes this the best cable for outdoor long runs. (as long as no power over Ethernet is needed). I just connected it to a switch on the other end and from there use other cable that is easier to install.Now get some more in stock so I can buy 3 more boxes!

I wanted something that can be run in my crawlspace for about 100 to 150 feet, and this is perfect. Unlike "indoor" cables, this has 2 sheathes surrounding the 8 inner wires, as well as an inner vinyl stiffening core. I accidentally put a wood staple through the side of this cable without it cutting the inner wires (wouldn't recommend it). The stiffness helped to push through a drilled hole in the floor and up through the space between my drywall. I think it would have been harder if it were floppier. Once done, I plugged it into my Ethernet switch box and it worked perfectly. Also unlike some of the other cat 6 cables which have 4 white (non-striped) wires along with the brown, blue, green, and orange, this one has color stripes on the white wires, making it easy to keep track of them when you crimp the plugs.

Very sturdy and kind of annoying to work with but thats sort of the point. I used this directly in my crawl space to wire from my network panel in the house out to the garage. Its very abrasion resistant but rigid making it tough to route through some existing underground conduit for part of the way. Speeds are fantastic.
