Frequently Asked Questions

How many cables come in the pack and how long are they?

Ten cables, each 5 feet long, in black. That is enough to populate an 8-port switch with two spares.

Will these run 10 gigabit Ethernet?

The cable is rated to 250 MHz and 10Gbps and lists 10GBASE-T support. At a 5-foot run length, 10-gig is well within its stated spec.

Are these real copper or copper-clad aluminum?

Jadaol specifies 100% bare copper wire at 30 AWG with gold-plated RJ45 connectors, not CCA.

Can I run these under carpet or along a wall?

Yes, that is the main design goal. The flat profile follows edges and corners and slides under carpet, and Jadaol rates the cable for indoor and outdoor use.

Is this cable shielded?

No. It is UTP, unshielded twisted pair. If you are running alongside mains wiring or in a high-EMI rack, look for an STP or FTP cable instead.
