I bought and installed 1000' of monoprice cat6 cable in my new home during framing. 6 months later I got a recall notice that the jackets on the cable were not fire rated even though they were marked UL/CL2 or whatever. They are telling me they will pay to have the cable replaced in the walls and have sent new cable, but the contractor they have offered said they can't do the job because the cable was stapled to the studs and they can't do drywall work. So monoprice told me to find someone else on my own to replace the cable and rip up my walls, and rip up a stone fireplace for one of the runs. It has been a nightmare.

Still not sure I will ever buy monoprice cable again for in wall application.

So I get you're upset about the situation, but you're giving them crap for trying to make it right? I can't think of many companies that would even offer this level of service to make things proper again.

You gotta give them some credit since most modern companies would leave you high and dry and make you fight to make things right. They'd force your to pursue legal paths which are an absolute nightmare and take a long time to resolve.

what kind of rj connectors did you choose? I had some that came with the insert and those were a pain to use.

When I was wiring my house in 2016, I paid $46 shipped for 1000ft of Cat6 cable. I made many 75-100ft runs.

I ordered cat6 similar to these many years ago from monoprice. Part # 13560 and 13563. These were shielded making the overall wire quite thick. I had to buy a couple of different RJ45 connectors to find the right one that would fit.

Have 2000' of this in my house when it was built. Bought it myself and had electricians install it. No issues, easy to terminate. If I was building today I would look harder at 6a if the price was close. Better future proofing with that shielding but it is more of a pain to terminate (assuming 2x 100 runs).

So is this normally $102 plus free shipping? I don't have a lot of storage, and would wait for $12 savings. Just wondering

Highly possible. I put away the box in my attic. It is solid wire and it does look copper, I can't be sure 100% pure cooper.

The fun was to do crossed wires and I made my shares of mistakes. Definitely a cable tester is a must.

edit: for wall jacks, I recommend the keystone punch-down jacks.

I install this all the time I've used dozens of boxes, its hard to beat this quality cable, the RJ45, Cat6 Keystones are also good.
And that patch panels, wall mount brackets etc. Everything I buy at Monoprice I have been happy with its less of a crap shoot then amazon.

I was about to post a similar warning.

I have not removed mine yet due to how much work it would be to remove and replace, but I will never buy anything from monoprice again.
