What to know before buying
Listing details to confirm
The title says 1m, while the listed length is 3 Feet. These length details are inconsistent, so confirm the delivered cable length before buying. The model is named UGREEN NASync Series despite the listing describing an Ethernet cable, and the outer material is variously described as cotton and a premium jacket. The claimed speed and frequency are product specifications, not a guarantee that connected equipment or an internet service will reach those rates.
What’s in the box
Included- NO

Customer feedback describes the cable as working well with a range of devices, easy to set up and durable, with braided construction and useful connectivity also noted. Some reported connection speeds reach 920/108Mbps, illustrating that the cable’s advertised maximum is not a promise of the speed a particular network will deliver. The feedback summary is positive overall, but does not establish performance for every setup.
Positive themes
- Customer feedback highlights ease of setup, device compatibility, durability and consistent connections.
- The feedback summary reports that customers consider the cable worthwhile for the price.
