Cat 7 Outdoor Ethernet Cable 500ft (SFTP Triple Shielded Internet Cable | DIY Bulk Cable | x 20 RJ45) High-Speed 10Gbps 600MHz Network Cable, Direct Burial, Waterproof/UV Resistant, for Router

Junk. The outer casing pulled apart while fishing this thru a wall. I literally pulled about 4 inches of outer sheath that separated from the wire. I ended up buying Cat 6 locally to complete the project.

This product is not the cat qualification indicated or made as advertised or as stamped. Foil does not wrap around individual pairs, only loosely covering (sometimes, if at all). Has no outer secondary foil as it should. Wires are much smaller diameter than they should be. Testing only got up to 150MB/S on 150ft run with 5G Internet and 10G ports, should be in the ball park of 350MB/S+. Better than CAT5E- but that is all.If speed is what you're after look elsewhere.

This is not giving CAT7 transfer speeds. I am getting Cat5 speed out of it. You get what you pay for I guess. I do not recommend this cable for use as CAT7. Please look at the picture below, the ports 7 and 8 are lit orange, that is because this cable is running 100meg, while the other ports on the switch are green running Gig speed using a different brand cable.

I don’t know if it’s because it’s CCA, or because it’s 24awg, but I’ve ran 3 runs with this cable. One run is about 15 feet, one about 30ft, and the last about 65ft. The 15ft seems okay; the 30ft has been mostly okay but a bit flaky. The 65ft? Forget it. When it does manage to get the signal to the destination it’s 100mbps. The connection does not stay stable long enough though to be usable.

This was shielded but not great. However the wire was a much thinner gauge wire like cat5 and it’s not 500’ which I bought; instead it was 150’
