Good Morning,

 

Maybe someone can help me out, I am looking for a super durable cat 5 or cat 6 cable that is about 50 foot long and everything I have seen on Amazon looks cheap but I also might not be looking in the right place.

What's the use case for the cable and what do you mean by durable? Able to withstand UV, lot of bends, etc?

Could find for the specific brands like Belden or Schneider. Both are reputable brands in quality cable, at least on my place.

Yet, we indeed would need more details as @Lurick said.

Humor me, as you should do.

depending on application, you can just get regular cat6 and 50ft of liquid-tight and assemble it. it should stand up to tons of abuse
