What to know before buying

Listing details to confirm

Listing details conflict on speed: the details field says 5 Gigabits Per Second, while feature text says up to 1000Mbps and promotional copy says 5000Mbps. The cable is identified as Cat 6, so verify the selected listing's claimed rate rather than treating 5Gbps as established. Construction details also differ, with one feature stating 28AWG pure copper and another describing 26AWG pure copper. The specified connector gender is Male-to-Female, while the product text generally describes RJ45 LAN connections, so confirm connector ends if they are important to your setup.

Customer feedback describes the cable as useful for gaming, easy to use and well built, with positive comments about its length and flexibility. Customers also report mixed connectivity experiences, ranging from reliable connections to frequent disconnections. Those reports matter for a wired connection where link stability is central, but they do not establish a cause. The stated 5 m length may help with placement, while the listing's conflicting speed claims should be considered separately from customer impressions.
