Is this rated for in wall? Does it say so on the out side of the cable?

BEST ANSWER: TIA-568-C.2 is not NEC or building code. TIA is Telecommunications Industry Association. TIA does not give a fire rating. ANSI/TIA-568-C.2, Balanced Twisted-Pair Telecommunication Cabling and Components Standard, Ed. C, Err. 04-2014.

If you look at the specs you will find: Monoprice Ethernet cables are made of 100% pure bare copper wire, as opposed to copper clad aluminum (CCA) wire, and are therefore fully compliant with UL Code 444 and National Electrical Code TIA-568-C.2 fire and safety standards, which require pure bare copper wire in communications cables.

The TIA-568-C.2 only refers to how the cable is made and tested. The UL 400 does tell you heat and fire information if you read the standard however it does not tell you if the cable is in wall, riser, or plenum rated. What would help answer this is the CM code. CM (General), CMR (Riser), CMP (Plenum). If these are CM which I'm guessing they are then the information is as follows; Flame resistant standard FT4/IEEE, UL1685 Vertical Tray, Type CM cables are generally the minimum jacket ratings suitable for in-wall installation of network cables, and are appropriate for installation inside a residence or a single-story commercial building
Networking cables should be stamped CM (communications) at a minimum. If put inside walls, CM rated cables should be in a non-combustible conduit. Cables rated CMR (for riser) and CMP (for plenum) meet code for going through walls and through spaces with air circulation, respectively. If a patch cable isn't stamped CMR or CMP, it's not within code to go through walls.
Nothing to indicate that it is plenum rated.

Can this be ran outside?

BEST ANSWER: There's no info on the product page that says it's rated for outdoor or sunlight resistance, so I would not run this out in the open.

Not sure of the rating but that's exactly what I did. I ran up the outside of my house and into an attic connection. No problems so far.

Works well enough
Bought a cheap Ethernet cable from Amazon, ping would go all over the place. First cable i bought here gave a steady connection on both my switch and pc. Lesson learned.

Great cord, maybe a bit flimsy but works great.
Worked great. It accidentally bent easier than I thought it would and it appeared to not be insulated super thick around the wire. Not a huge problem, no obvious signs of degradation, but just something to be wary of if you need these to be tough.
