A: Yes. I have used this in the past to run phone lines. Just be sure to have the RJ-11 connectors pinned out correctly.

I like the soft (annealed) pure copper that is not brittle. I have purchased more than 10 (1000ft) boxes from Home Depot and have not had a problem with this cable on any of my installations. It may cost more than other cabling available online but I prefer to spend extra for the peace of knowing that I am using an excellent product.

I used this to run data cable to each room in our new construction home. The box makes it easy to run the cable without worrying about it getting all tangled up. 1000ft will go a very long ways when cabling an entire house. I know that CAT6 cable is available now, but the speeds at which Cat5e can run, this is more than enough for the next good while. I used this to also run cables for our home security cameras that have the option of being wired or wireless. The great thing about running wire is we do not need to worry about getting good wifi signal to those cameras. This is a great product at a fantastic price.

The quality of this product is great, easy to manage, also great durability, whether to run cable on a riser, or make custom size patch cables, this is my preferred option.

Biggest issue I have with this cable is the lack of foot marks. It actually does have marks on it, but they are not 0-1000 but manufacture marks that are in the 80000 range. You have to look at the beginning mark and then subtract 1000 from that and write it on the box. Then when you need to know how much cable is in the box you have to do the math. If you forget to write the number on the box, you are screwed.
As far as the pulling of the cable, I didn't have any issues there. It seems to come right out with no kinks. After the cable is out of the box, it does tangle easy, but I feel all cable does that once it's out of the box.
The jacket is tight on the cable do if you use one of the strippers you could nick the cable, I don't use one so that's not a big deal to me.
The conductors are spot on in my book and I've had no issues with the performance of the cable.

Easy to work with. Length is perfect. Now I have fast internet in my other room with much more security than wifi.
I was in a pinch and needed additional data cable. It was ok and I was able to use it. I have used better. Price was a little more than the better cable I normally order but it will do.
