Belden no?
Not a Belden fan unless we are talking about coaxial. I would normally not consider this brand due to the pricing as well.
Belden no?
I managed to get Belden (box) @ $200, same price as AMP that I was quoted.
"IG MARKETING $115 schenider cat 6 305m", anyone got experience with schenider's CAT6?
CAT6 STP (Shield Twisted Pair Cable) needs a cabling contractor that knows how to ground the cable properly to work. If not done right, it will end up worst than a CAT5 UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair).
In practices, unless you have a really electrically noise environment or is planning to to push the cabling to its max performance ie 10Gbps over 100 meters, for normal 1Gbps use, there is not much distinction between CAT5e or CAT6, UTP or STP.
CAT6 is a good choice if your laying new cabling due to its better electrical noise immunity. Given time and material degradation, CAT6 cable should still be able to hold the 1Gbps speed where the CAT5e cable might have failed. That again, I am talking about a time scale of 10 or more years. Even now I have customers office using CAT5 thats more than 10 years old doing just fine at 1Gbps. The key to its longevity is the way it has been lay, away from natural generator of electricial noise ie power cabling, light fixture, high temperature, exposure to weather elements etc..
Any performance difference between those flat cables and the normal ones ?
Hi i interested on what testing equipment you had.. Just saying..
I want to see also.
Anyone got better pricing for AMP keystone & faceplates, jacks?
Was quoted the following pricing for my new warehouse project.
AMP Netconnect Keystone ~ $6
AMP Netconnect Angled single port faceplate ~ $7.5
AMP Netconnect Angled dual port faceplate ~ $9
AMP Netconnect Jacks ~ $0.75 per piece. 1 Box 100 piece @ $50
And where can I get full reel 3M or AMP CAT 6 at lowest price?
I wouldn't go back to LHS for Belden cos it is expensive at $214.
Something along these lines? Fluke DSX-5000 Cable Analyzer
I would so love to borrow your toy for my home 10Gbps project.

Unfortunately it is not a toy. Thats part of the rice bowl for networking projects.
