Is the cable too thin? Any downsides because of it being too thin?

It doesn't seem thin at all to me. It's the same thickness as the rest of my cords. It works great though. Never had a problem from it. Needed it to run further through the house so this cable was perfect!

It seems like a normal cable. I have seen some with more shielding but it that was not what I needed. It is working just fine.

Well... I am not sure. I have it set up and I'm not going to take it apart meow. But I don't remember it being especially short. Have you tried downloading the manual from the Creative website? It might tell you cable lengths.

I have a similar configuration and ended up having to buy an extension cable. A friend of mine did a build similar to mine and claimed the cable was long enough. I wanted to have some slack and extra length for better routing around the motherboard so as not to interfere with airflow for cooling.

The quality of your shows/movies will primarily depend on your connection speed. While the cable can impact it if it's a shoddy one, it generally won't effect it too much. Those are my experiences anyway.

Thanks Justin, I appreciate the feedback.Do you know if the cables are proprietary, meaning that you cannot use a longer cable?

i bought my cable also 18 AWG to replace the existing cable that comes with my security camera, the original cable introduces lots of noise on the video, but when i replaced it with a cable similar to FLEX6 series, i got clean video, i haven't try the cable that you mentioned, i just read the spec so i cannot tell if its better or worse, but i can tell its comparable.

It could be that where is connect to could possibly be loose. I have not had that problem. But its said to be after much movement the cable tips could go bad

Hey. the cord is a bit too long, but the connection is the same, so I just have some extra cord stuffed in. Nothing noticeable on the exterior, just underneath, and no problems after a year of using it. So basically, yes.

That cable is heavier but I haven't tried it with my hard drive yet. Logically speaking, why shouldn't it?

Hi Brian, Sorry not the expert however I do like the idea of a retractable cable. I use that for other electronics. Best!!!

It should work fine-don't use a cable any longer than you need on either input or output

No, it is not. It is kind of a hassle if you don't need all 3 metres of the cable as well. But I make use of them just fine!

I would say not. The rubber shielding is not as thick as previous cables that I have used. Connectivity is very good, but it is not as heavily shielded as some users may prefer. That may be an issue if you plan to move the cable a lot or will be placing it next to other cables, where signal interference might be a problem. It is great for us, though, as we run it from a ceiling mounted projector, across acoustic tiles, to a laptop next to a SMART Board.

I am sorry my friend. I am not an expert on this stuff. I would not call what I have "Perfect FLex". It is very heavy duty cable and I am happy with the signal. That is what I was after.

Cable is quite thin and flexible; at least , I never noted its bulkness whenever I used it.

yes, it does what it's supposed to do. I haven't had a problem with mine and its not a bad price for the cable too! shipping is another story..

This cable is much thicker than a standard Apple cable. It seems reasonably flexible, but that depends on your needs.
