7' Rosewill RCW-571 Cat 6 Ethernet Cable (white) $0.80 + Free Shipping

Yes. Cat6 is just wound tighter (or more twists). The pinouts on the terminals are no different.

In short cat6 can get 1Gbit up to 300ft while cat5e I think can only do 100Mbit "guaranteed" to that length. Cat6 is also slightly less susceptible to EMI.

Edit: Found it, cat5e = 1Gbit up to 300ft, cat6 10Gbit up to 100ft.

Long and short of it, there is absolutely no difference between a cat5e 7' cable and a cat6 7' cable unless you are directly under powerlines or you live in the year 2020 and have 10Gbit SOHO equipment. 80c for this cable is still a great deal either way.

Don't forget Cat7 is now out with 10 gig speeds.

how is it a loss when newegg gets this for maybe 10 cents or less?. newegg wouldnt be around if all they did was sell things at a loss. they are a multi million dollar company. Newegg isnt just in california right off the 605 they roll farkin deep in other states! they can sell this every day of the week without getting dinged for loss

Lack of real deals tonight started a debate over quality of rj45 cables... Good thing target had some good clearence deals today .
