Monoprice Cat6A Ethernet Patch Cable - Snagless RJ45, 550Mhz, 10G, UTP, Pure Bare Copper Wire, 30AWG, 10-Pack, 7 Feet, Blue - SlimRun Series

I was sick of thick cables in my cabinet and set about researching the 'thin' alternatives. Even when the Ubiquiti thin and bendy cables got a mention, these Monoprice cables still had more recomendations and they come in a a fraction of the price. Having made all the original cables myself, I didn't want to waste all the effort by buying somethign else I might not be happy with. Well, I'm very happy with all the Monoprice cables I bought. They are well made, super thin, great quality and have managed all my PoE devices without issue; I was concerned about that ability due to their thinness and while they are rated for PoE, you just never know. Only thing that would make these cables better is a made-to-measure service. If you are looking to tidy up your cabinet, look no further. I think they look way better than standard Cat6 cable and they fit in my 350mm deep cabinet without worrying about tight bends.

I've been building out a 10" mini rack and the glass door has been too close to the patch panel so regular cables just weren't allowing the door to close, these work great. They still push up against the door when closed but are a massive space saver, and the cables themselves are really thin, making cable management very easy in a small cabinet like I've got here. Transparent clear RJ45 connectors so the ports do light up when plugged in to active ports, depending on how your switch is configured with it's activity lights you might see more then others. Very nice cables, reasonable price for a pack of 10.

I purchased these cables to upgrade my home network from Cat 5, especially after recently having super-fast fibre installed. I wanted to ensure I was getting the maximum performance from my new connection. ​I was genuinely surprised by how slim these cables are. Their super-thin profile not only makes installation much easier but also makes it far simpler to route them neatly around the house. The speeds are excellent and I’ve seen a big improvement in my overall internet performance and stability. The build quality is brilliant.

Really great cables. Very short tidy server quality solid copper. No problems running with Cisco switch. Worth the extra.

I opted for these over UniFi Etherlighting based on cost per cable being a lot friendlier and the ease of ordering when requiring more/different sizes due to free shipping with Prime. Before ordering I was a bit worried that these would not be the same quality and light levels as the Etherlighting but they do the job perfect and can still see the port light colour with no issues, the Etherlighting may be a bit brighter but for cost and flexibility these get the vote from my view point. Also, no issue with port speed too based on the thin cable, so if wanting a UniFi like cable for a lot less, even compared to their standard patch cables, which are only rated to 1GbE, then these are a great buy. I will soon be ordering more of these to have them on hand and in different sizes to align the rack.

These cables are very slim and work fine for general patching, but I had issues with them when trying to pass POE+ power to a Unifi access point, and was getting drop outs and poor performance.

These are very thin cables, but they work great and make your cabinet a lot neater

Great thin cable, seems to work fine for short POE lengths for access points etc. Just wish the different length/colour variants were more available and consistently priced.
