Yep, 10 whole meters of cat5e for £1.29 (including delivery)

That's 12.9p per meter... how they can sell it so cheap is beyond me.

Seller has 100% positive feedback so everything should be fine. Enjoy

Or try this - from a reputable general electrical distributor:

http://www.tlc-direct.co.uk/Products/CACAT5Eslash100.html
Cat5e 100m reel
total price £12.85 +VAT = 15.42  ie 15p/meter

The catch? - it's CCA not copper

They also sell the proper stuff at £75 for a reel

Hi c6em,

Or try this - from a reputable general electrical distributor:

http://www.tlc-direct.co.uk/Products/CACAT5Eslash100.html
Cat5e 100m reel
total price £12.85 +VAT = 15.42  ie 15p/meter

The catch? - it's CCA not copper

Add the P&P though and that's £21.41  = 21.41p/metre

Whereas that 305m roll of cat5e from a famous auction website is 7.59p/metre delivered!

Every Little Helps!

They also sell the proper stuff at £75 for a reel
http://www.tlc-direct.co.uk/Products/CACAT5E.html

26.75p/metre  delivered

Quite a difference!

cheers, a

Maybe it'll be that stuff I inadvertantly bought from a seller on Amazon recently. Claims to be cat5e, incredibly thin and not even twisted pair http://forum.kitz.co.uk/index.php/topic,11333.msg219305.html#msg219305

£2.18 for a 20 metre ready assembled cable with RJ45 plugs.  Awful.

Sounds terrible! I bet the photos weren't the same as what you got either!

That ebay seller is a rich one! If you need an anatomical skeleton or stethoscope (should save on doctors visits!) then he's your man!

Hehe! I was going to try a reel for "experimentation". Though it would take a brave man who lifts floorboards to lay that stuff.
