as expected - great quality!

This is pure copper not copper clad aluminum, perfect for POE cameras or inside the wall applications.

Pro:As the title indicates, the quality of the copper is on par with the high standard that I have come to expect from Monoprice.

Cons:1. My experience building network cables spans a couple of decades, and while this not the worst terminating cable I've ever worked with, it's pretty darn close. I tried both pass-through and non-pass-through RJ45's and the individual wires were too flimsy, making the termination process tedious.
2. I am not a fan of the plastic x-spline "ripcord". It does not cut cleanly, and even when cut short, it is still in the way making an already tedious termination job more difficult.

Some of the cons could have been prevented if I hadn't been too impatient to wait for the solid copper to come back in stock. If I had known this stranded was this difficult to work with, I would have just waited.

I've not had a bad product from Monoprice so I was pretty confident ordering this CAT6 bulk cable.
I wasn't disappointed.
Greats service, great prices, great products.
That's Monoprice

Strong cable. Worked really well in feeding through the walls and crawl space. Will purchase again of needing more cable.

I was a bit disappointed w/this order. I have previously ordered CAT5e cable and received it in a nice easy to feed box. This cabling was shipped on a spool covered in shrink wrap. The cable itself is great quality. I was just hoping that this being more expensive than the CAT5e cable, they would have shipped it in the same type of container.

I also ordered some cable boots to go with this. They were listed as RJ45 boots, however they are far too small in diameter to be used w/the CAT6 cabling.
