RIIEYOCA Cat5e Ethernet Coiled Cable - Retractable RJ45 Network LAN Cable for Laptops, Desktop, Routers, Set-top Boxes - Stretchable to 1.5M

I bought these for use on my model train layout as throttle tethers and they work great. Just make sure the wiring matches your system.

Right out of the bag, the cable failed to work on Ethernet. The plugs were way to loose in Ethernet jacks. Jiggling the plugs would get a temporary but slow connection. I thought I might be able salvage the cable by cutting off the loosey goosey connectors and putting my own on but, when I cut off one endoff one end and stripped off the jacket, the wires were not twisted pairs. This is NOT an Ethernet cable! This makes me wonder about the veracity of all the positive reviews. It's a pity I can't use it because this is the best coiled cable I've seen in a long time; it fully springs back every time it gets stretched out.

I have a Berkliner Massage Chair and the OEM controller is wired to chair with a coiled cable that had started to break down, horribly. Literally, the rubber coating on cable was simply flaking off, exposing all the wires inside. Not to mention the mess of little flakes of pieces of hardened rubber all over... Turns out the controller cable plugs in underneath the chair using a RJ45 plug like CAT5 cables use. However, the OEM cable has a 24" non-coiled leader. An exhaustive search of InterWeb found no replacements available for this Berkliner Chair controller and nowhere could I find a coiled cable with a 24" leader to RJ45 connector, so I bought this Coiled Cable along with a 24" CAT5 extender cable. Cut off one end of the coiled cable and stripped back to expose wires for connection to the actual hand controller. Had to carefully coordinate wire colors as they were different, but was able to get new coiled cable successfully solder to controller board. Also salvaged the original strain relief and got controller functional. Added the 24" CAT5 extension cable from the electronics under the chair out to the side pocket where the hand controller is stored and plugged it in there. All Good! Works perfectly and my Shiatsu Massage chair is back in business, kneading my back muscles to perfection... Ahhhhhhh....

It would be nice if it was a bit more flexible. Too dificult to stretch out

I've been using this for a few months and have had no issues. Good value. Easy to use. Seems will made.

WHY did I not read the reviews?!?!? I ordered 3 of these, and all three have split pairs and are useless. Not happy at all!

Important: This is *not* a twisted pair, and as such might not be particularly good as an ethernet cable as it could be subject to crosstalk and interference. I purchased it as a replacement declination motor cable for an LX200 telescope, however those cables need to be wired as a rollover cable (not a crossover cable), which did require me to cut off one of the ends off, reverse the wires and install a new RJ45 terminal end (this is how I know the cable is not a twisted pair). I already knew I was going to have to do that when I purchased it, so that is not the reason for the three stars. The reason for three stars is because A. Its not a twisted pair and is being sold as an ethernet cable B. Its quite stiff as a cable and does not stretch or move very well, which kind of undermines the entire point of being a coiled cable, as it puts undue strain on the terminal ends rather than the coiled area, which is not great for a telescope that will be constantly slewing across the night sky.

If you feel comfortable clipping off 1 end and re-arranging the wires in a reverse pattern then crimping on a new plug, this product will work for that purpose. I used this to replace the OEM cord that had heat-rot on my Meade LX Autostar telescope mount.

アイコムの無線機用マイクが経年変化で外被覆が剥がれてしまったので、こちらと交換。純正と比べると少々固く重量もありますが（なので★4）、使用に問題はなく安価に交換ができました。

Bought three and 2 of the 3 don’t work at all. Don’t waste your time on these.

use on tv ,work's great.

good

poor quality very stiff cable
