£15.83 inc. VAT
AI-generated summary
For £13.31 ex‑VAT on a 15m lead, this looks like a solid “just works” patch cable for a typical UK office or comms closet run where you don’t want any drama. StarTech’s usually decent on consistency, and the fact it’s snagless with strain relief is genuinely practical—15m cables get tugged and routed more than short patch leads, and cheap ends that don’t handle that are where you’ll end up with reliability issues. The LSZH jacket is also a sensible choice in shared/occupied spaces because it’s the safer default compared with standard PVC.
I’d buy this if you’re running PoE to something like an IP phone, small access point, or a camera and you know the run length is within your design limits—using a decent branded cable helps avoid “mystery” faults under load. I wouldn’t bother if you’re doing a lot of long-distance runs across harsh routing paths, or if you need bulk/price-per-meter for larger projects—at this size it’s more of a convenient, reliable local patch/cabling solution than a cost-minimiser. Overall: good value for the buyer who wants a dependable single cable and doesn’t want to gamble on unknown brands.
