Ratings & Reviews for Southwire 500-ft 23 CAT 6 4 Riser Blue Data Cable Pull box
Ratings may include incentivized customer reviews.
What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise this cable for reliable performance, fast stable connections, and ease of installation. Many report near-gigabit speeds up to 935 Mbps and dramatic improvements over Cat 5e, with seamless connectivity across multiple rooms. Reviewers highlight smooth pulling through walls and attics, clean stripping, and successful large-scale installations exceeding 1,500 feet. The thicker gauge, 100-foot spool size, and affordable price point are frequently commended. However, some express frustration that the cable lacks the internal crossfiller spline required for true Cat 6 compliance, functioning more like enhanced Cat 5e. Despite this concern, most customers find it effective for typical home networking needs.

~935mbps Upstream & Downstream after installation.
Would RecommendI needed to run Ethernet to my office on the opposite side of my house from where the Modem is located. I fed the cable from my modem to a Ubiquiti PoE injector and then from the injector to an Ethernet wall outlet. From the outlet the CAT cable runs into my attic where it plugs into a Ubiquiti Flex Mini Network Switch and powers it via PoE. A second CAT cable feeds from that Switch and down into the wall of my office to another Ethernet wall outlet. Initial speedtests produced terrible results,...

The cable itself worked perfectly for my setup, providing a solid and reliable connection right away. Great quality product at a good price. Definitely a 5 out of 5 star purchase.
