Connecting a device to a network router using a LAN cable is still considered the fastest way to transmit data and that is because of the optical fibers used in the cable. The CAT 7 Networking Cable from Trands aims to build on this by making a 3m long cable so that you can connect your laptop to a router without having to sit on top of the router. The contact pins are all gold plated for fast connectivity and the flat cable prevents any tangling of the cable which can lead to signal loss. .(1)Compatible with older version of LAN ports as well.(2)Gold plated pins for superior connectivity and faster data transmission.(3)Twisted copper wires to prevent any noise or interference in the connection.(4)Flat cables prevent any tangling or twisting
