trueCABLE 1000ft Cat5e Riser (CMR) Ethernet Cable, Black

Keith Jones: I read a review from 2020 about someone warning everyone that this cable did not work with his IP cameras and he had to replace all the cable. I thought after 3 years, this wouldn't be an issue but once I ran the cable to my IP camera, I found out the hard way. It would pull the IP address but I couldn't even reach the login page of the camera. I replaced the cable and the camera worked great. This cable being pure copper, I thought this wouldn't be an issue but I found out the hard way. This might explain all the connectivity issues I have had from other camera installs.

Erik --: I use a box or two a year working with students (making patch cables etc). This brand of cable has worked well for me punching down to old 110 and 66 blocks as well as direct RJ45 connectors. The insulation on inner wires is well colored and easy to see (I've had some other types have semi translucent insulation that makes green and blue hard to distinguish as well as stripped vs unstripped - tough on new learners).

vixiane sengsouvanh: This is a great quality product and excellent value for the money. My situation does not need CAT6 or higher Cat5e is more than adequate for my current and future needs, so this fits the bill.

Howard R. Johnson: Cat5E has been out there a while. I normally buy this in 1,000 foot rolls at a time. It was a sturdy cable and was easy to work with while running line. It carried the signal just fine with no issues. Sometimes you can get the wires crossed during end crimping. I think that is something normal that many of us do. It is just part of being a human and trying to get the job done quickly as possible. That is what line testers are for, right? It turned out to be a good cable.

Very high end quality product! I recommend this to anyone!

AShopper: I built 3 cable for my IP camera using this wire. The ones that are 30ft or less work fine. The one that is 60 ft doesn't work. I can't connect to the camera because the link quality is so low. When I ping it, I only get 25 to 50% reply. No, it's not the camera because I tried it with a 2 different cameras and they behaved the same. So don't buy this cable if you plan long network cable run.

Update 5/6/19
Updated to 5 stars. I found out why the 60 foot cable doesn't work. I used only half of the twisted green wire for network and half for DC power by mistake. That was why there was too much noise on the network and hence lost half of the pings. I started over with twisted orange and green pair for ethernet and the twisted brown and blue for power and my IP camera worked fine.
