The review says this is not cat6. Is that right?

I've had nothing but trouble with these cables since I put them in. Switched back to our 100 ft cat 5e cables and problems went away.

This is a 1 piece design. Please note that even though it states that it is for CAT6, it is not really meant for CAT6. It will probably work in a CAT6 system at lower speeds. But if you have a need for max CAT6 speed, this connector will probably not test out to spec. Please see my review on 1/7/14. Also, I have used a number of these connectors in a CAT5e setup, with no problems. If you are building cables, especially long runs, I would recommend getting a cable tester for less that $10 at amazon. They carry a couple of brands. See my review on one of them. If you are building your own cables, or doing repairs, you should also buy boots for the cable ends. Slide the boot on first, then install the cable connector end as normal.

It is supposed to be but it doesn't work. Net gear and Linksys have one that do.

Yes. CAT6 are delicate, but should work fine as long as you work carefully.

I am using this product to connect my macbook pro (late 2012) to the typical connecting wire I use with my router ...I sorry I don't know what a cat6 is etc. but internet pix of cat6 look like my "typical connecting wire". thunderbolt to ethernet connector works fine for me and my macbook pro.

Without getting into the specifics cat 6 is just plain faster. But I recommend cat 5e rather than even considering cat 5 in the equation.cat 6a is currently the fastest I know about aside from Fiber optic.

I was told to use Cat&a; because you'll have more lenght (100m) but if I'm not wrong Cat6 "should maybe" works, if you don't know get Cat&a; because the price diffrence is not very high if you buy a bunch of cables.

i think it was an rg45, cat5. I can't find it at the moment. I don't know how long it was. I used my existing cable to connect to my cable modem.

The description has the following listed: "Compliant with EIA/TIA Cat6, Draft 11" So I'd assume no.

Yes, any CAT5 cable should be compatible with that setup. CAT5, CAT5e and CAT6 are all basically the same thing, just added speed and functionality.

Yes it is. Personally, I used to use this in my room to split my sole cat5 into multiple ones for my computer and gaming consoles.

It works perfectly fine with Cat 6 (mine was Cat6 plenum). I used this throughout my home three months ago, all connections tested correctly, and I haven't seen any issues at all.

Hi Tim, yes as stated in some early responses this is a layer 3 switch. Be happy to help with any other question you may have on this equipment, thanks - DT Networks

These cables are crap, to put it succintly. They are not cat5. I dont know if they can handle POE (Power Over Ethernet) but i wouldnt count on it.

Im pretty sure you could because CAT5 and 6 have the same connectors. The only problem I could think of is if you have really high data transfer ratesbut this may not be rated for CAT6 speeds but it should still work.

It appears to be an error. The corresponding monoprice product is indeed an ethernet cable, I'd assume the amazon pictures are wrong. Or the description is wrong. Or they copied and pasted the wrong product name.EDIT:The price suggests it's supposed to be the HDMI cable and they copied the wrong product name.

Yes, this is a network cable for Ethernet which is pretty universal. The old standard cable was Category 5, but Category 6 is fully compatible with it.
