i got cat 7 250ft i think only for $100 and ya its outdoor shit but thats what im using for my cabling.. i upgraded to 10g network and the old cables werent long enough nor was up for my networking needs so i went cheap.. lol it was a kit got a tool and i think 10 connectors but i bought more connectors so id have enough for what i was doing.i didnt know what to expect but it was so much easier than cat 5 or 6..
