@th I'm going through the same :) Those are some nice network cables! Which brand are they?

@rmsilva "MonoPrice SlimRun Cat6A patch cables" and they are amazing. The 30awg twisted pairs are so slender that they feel like fiber compared to normal UTP.

@th they look very practical. Where's the catch (other than not being suitable for PoE)?

@th exactly! At first I thought you had a bunch of fibers!

@th @rmsilva they’re so thin, I assume you’re not running PoE anywhere?

@th
I love these! With a patch to switch I often have trouble being able to have the cables go 180 degrees easily - those thinner cables would be perfect (and I only need like 25cm or less!)
