this cable is cat5 or cat6? because the title says: Aurum Cables CAT6 1000 ft Outdoor waterproof and the description says: 1000 ft (305m) outdoor cat5

When I ordered my box in August it was cat6. Said so on the box and the wires were marked as such. However I do not recall the description stating cat 5. I am sure if you ordered it and it was wrong Amazon would allow free shipping for the return. One thing to be mindful is that the order may not come with the crimped and ends (mine did not). Nevertheless when I called Amazon to complain they refunded me 20 bucks. Btw my Ethernet run in buried conduit spanned about 110 ft. No issues; everything works great.

The cable is CAT 6. It is very durable. I ran it on the top of the ceiling in a warehouse office.

Mine look like this but mine came with CAT6 crimper and Ethernet cable heads. This one seems to be a CAT5e though.

The cord is about 5 feet. But the cord length is pointless for an underwater application because it does not perform to it's claims of waterproofing.

I had a problem with the first cat cable so i upgraded to a better cable it was cat 4, 5 , or 6 i cant remember which one it is but its a thicker gauge ethernet cable and it works fine at 1000 ft

The standard cable is about 8ft long, and you can buy a long extension if you need more. Yes, it is weatherproof. I have had three of thee (2-15W and 1-10W, outside for over a year with zero issues. Occassionaly clean off the glass and you are golden. Very reliable device. Just remember 10W is not much, but very good to keep a Motorcycle/Lawn Tractor/ATV battery fresh and ready.

Yes it is a six ft. cable or 1 meter in length, sometimes Amazon does not include all important specifications, the cable however is one of the best I have ever purchased, I rate it excellent for the money!!

It is advertised as 10 awg, but wire is actually 12 awg.Wire looks bigger because insulation is pretty thick.

Solid cable can span a longer distance. Cat5, Cat5e, and Cat6 cable is spec'd to convey the electrical signal over 100 meters (328 feet). That's 90 meters (295 feet) of SOLID cable, allowing for a 5M (16ft) STRANDED cable at either end. Typically, in-the-wall is stranded, and from wall (jack) to device is stranded. If you were to use all stranded for a run, you get less than 100 meters, but i'm not sure how much. Most houses are less than 295 feed, so stranded would probably be fine. But, i used solid for my 105 foot run, just cuz i wasted to be extra sure and have some margin.

I believe the only difference between CAT5 and CAT6 is the cable. The connector does plug on both sides so you don't have to wire it.

The description says it is one meter long, which is roughly 3 feet. I Love this cable, one of the best I've bought.

I'm not sure if there is a cable length limit on the tester (I don't remember seeing one in the instructions) but there is a length limit of 100 meters in the Ethernet data transfer standards for Cat5 cable and I'm sure that the tester would have been made to test up to this "universal" standard.

They indicate it to be "High Speed" which would mean 10.2 Gbps (Gigabits per second). And it says it can also support Ethernet. Now it does not say how big the wires are (which is the size of the pipe) from which we can determine its maximum length to achieve 10Gbps. But given that is only 6 Ft, it is well within its range of capabilities, this is an assumption.Bottom line is, I like these cables, they work, I don't see anything weird in my video, the sound is good, it is cheap. I have no complaints.

THIS IS A CUT AND PASTE ON WHAT WIKIPEDIA SAYS: Category 6eFollowing the finalization of Cat 6, a number of manufacturers began offering "Category 6e" cables as an enhancement to the Category 6 standard-presumably naming it after Category 5e. However, no legitimate Category 6e standard exists, and Cat 6e is not a recognized standard by the Telecommunications Industry Association............ SO LONG STORY SHORT THEY CAN CALL IT 6E BUT IT DON'T MEAN MUCH............ I used this cable in a 300ft run threw a attic and then conduit and then into a 2nd house on the same property.... It connected at gigabit speed. Its good stuff :) THIS IS A CUT AND PASTE ON WHAT WIKIPEDIA SAYS: Category 6eFollowing the finalization of Cat 6, a number of manufacturers began offering "Category 6e" cables as an enhancement to the Category 6 standard-presumably naming it after Category 5e.

Not sure which one your inquiring about. I purchased two different cable, one was a standard 3 foot length, purchased to have as travel backup in the event the longer one is left behind. The second was a 6.5 foot long one and that one is fantastic.

I would search for an outdoor rated wire. I wouldnt consider this to be an outdoor cable unless you are running it in a conduit. For your POE question that is better answered by your power source then factor in the frequency of the cable. Here is a calculator to help. http://beyond-wifi.com/poe/poe-calc.html
