Cat6A Direct Burial Bulk Ethernet Cable, Shielded F/UTP,1000ft, Black, Waterproof, Outdoor OSP Jacket, 23AWG Solid Bare Copper, 750MHz, PoE++ 100W

trueCABLE Cat6A Direct Burial, 500ft, Waterproof, Outdoor Rated CMX, Black, 23AWG Solid Bare Copper, 750MHz, PoE++ This is a high quality cable. It was really easy to work with and make my runs. My use was at home. My runs are all in the attic, sub-space and some outdoor - none buried. If you are looking for a supple cable, this isn't it. By design it is more rigid than other cables. That said - I had no issue making patch cables for indoor use - 2ft, 3ft , 7ft, 10ft. Not the best for making sharp 90 degree bends, but a gradual 90 wasn't an issue for me. I found attaching the connectors to be easier than indoor (lighter) cable. The rigidity of the wire helped. You will need to be sure that the connectors you have can accommodate the thicker cable. Out of maybe a dozen or so runs I made, from 10' to 100', I only had to re-do 2 connectors. In both cases it was user error (me) or connector flaw.

High quality shielded cable

Ran multiple 100ft runs around the exterior of my home to carry 10GbE from the network rack to wall jacks all around the house. Works as advertised.

Very useful and good product. I bought this cable for my home project. Initially my plan to run it outdoor but eventually I ran it inside. I noticed some complain about how hard is to trim it. We should never use rj45 connectors directly. The alternative is to use keystone jacks. And a patch cord between the device and keystone. I added a couple of pics.

Amazing and easy to terminate I’ve bought a few thousand feet mostly for super long Poe runs with switches and injectors downstream to make it a 600 ft run with no issues wish they had a bulkier option

Wiring up a PoE security camera NVR system. This cable should future proof the system for 20 to 30 years. This is a thick, shielded Cat6a cable. Twists are not individually shielded, but the entire 8 wires are shielded by one wrap of foil. Central spline of crosshatch plastic makes this kind of stiff but can bend and make corners. Terminating into Cat6a RJ45 shielded ends took some practice, but with some patience I found a good way to do this. Once you untwist the pairs, straighten each wire by itself, get the color scheme in order then straighten again, cut the little wires at a pretty good angle, then feed into the staggered end of the Rj45. It may take a few times of doing this, but eventually all 8 wires slide into the end for crimping, then slide your boot onto the end, and done! Works very well.

I use this in 99% of runs. It's almost indestructible and never had a break in hundreds of lines I've ran. I don't worry about uv exposure or water. Sure it's a pain to cut and punch down but it'll last. There's no way it'll fit in a rj45 male end though.

Product came as described. Shielding tested perfect! Good price.
