Attach new cables to old cables.Now how to replace the cables in the walls? Was such a mission to install them.
Yep thanks. Sometimes I add washing up liquid to lubricate them. Got a difficult portion about 15 mts with varios curves. Took me about 2 days initially to get that lan through with the fish eye cableAttach new cables to old cables.
Pull through new cables while pulling out old cables.
I wish we had plasterboard walls! All very solid brick (double skin) and reinforced concrete buildings here!
yep I am sure I've been scammed with a few of my lengths. They don't even state on the cable what they are sometimes. cat5e verified with the awg.copper clad aluminum wire was an il concept for cheaper data wire. The only thing I can see it being possibly useful for is POE lighting. Real 100% copper wire doesn't cost that much more. What is a pain is the zon (amazon) because their items sometimes hide the fact the wire is CCA. Buy from a real cable source: monoprice, truecable, cablewholesale, cablestogo are a few vendors I get stuff from.
A CMR rating means the cable can be used in the risers of commercial buildings because they limit the spread of flames better than cables in the CL/CM family.yep I am sure I've been scammed with a few of my lengths.

If it states CMR does that mean it is 100% copper?
I have enough spare at the end to strip a bit and put a new rj45 on after if I can't visibly see.If you look at the end of the cable, assuming it has an exposed end of course, you should be able to see if the conductors are solid copper or have that bright, silvery, shine that says aluminum. A magnifier can help with that. You can even use that technique on a terminated cable by carefully inspecting the end of the RJ45 connector.
Looks like you're getting full speed out of your presumably gigabit network.What do I make of that?
