I wish someone would create wireless ethernet cables. It's annoying running wires from one room to the other.

How much for a 50 ft?
Good to have with you if you are troubleshooting as a network technician.
Also flat cables are better because they can be coiled up tightly and thus are more portable.

Your can use the powerline adapter, so it uses electrical wire instead of using cable. Your mileage may vary based on the condition of the existing electrical wiring.

Cat 7 isn’t an official ieee standard. It’s a good price but as it isn’t fully ratified you’re better off getting cat 6 or cat 6a

Resistance isn't very relevant for high speed impedance dominated wiring. What you really want to complain about is insertion loss.

Cat7 wire was designed to support 10 Gbps. You should have no problem to get 10 Gbps than 950Mbps, or you don't have the correct switch to use cat 7 which the cat 5e cable is enough

As someone that installs tons of POE cameras I don’t think I’ve ever encountered a stranded Cat5, Cat6, Cat7, or Cat8 cable.
This cable would work fine for a POE camera.
