Blackbird 4x1 HDMI 1.4 commutateur HDCP 1.4 avec toslink et extracteur audio analogique - Monoprice®

This product looked amazing on the spec sheet, but failed to reliably deliver useable signal to the TV from half the devices I connected to it I have 4 devices: - a nintendo switch - an NES classic - an SNES classic - a SEGA Genesis mini When everything is connected, the (nintendo) switch and the genesis are able to send signals through the hdmi switch to the TV, but the NES and SNES classics commonly end up with the TV showing "signal not supported" when it goes through the hdmi switch. Of course, all 4 devices work fine when connected directly to the TV, so I have no clue what the hdmi switch is doing to cause the signals from those 2 devices to fail on a regular basis. In the end, restarting the hdmi switch and restarting the devices will eventually get it working, but that's not very good to need to do every time I want to switch things.

RCA modulaire avec jack keystone central blanc - blanc - Monoprice®

5/5

They connected securely and remained almost completely straight in keystone wallplates even with very stiff RCA-crimped-coax connected inside the wall. Also cheaper than that depot-like place for your house.

It's a 5 pack of 2 port wall plates! They, uh, work. And they're cheaper than that depot-like place for your house. A lot cheaper. I used RCA keystone jacks and blank inserts in these and they clipped in nicely.

They small, they're white, they're blank and they clip in. They're cheap, I guess. I don't really follow the blank keystone insert market. Would have no issues ordering more of these if I needed them.

Câble pour haut-parleur 14AWG Classé CL2 (pour installation dans les murs) -250pi - PrimeCables®

5/5

Good in-wall cable, good price. Very flexible stranded wire is easily run through walls and ceiling joists. Outer insulation is a bit hard to strip without damaging the inner insulation since it's completely round and filled in, unlike the 8-ish shape of typical speaker wire where you can easily cut down the middle. Gets the job done, easy to write on the white sheathing with sharpie for in-wall labelling

Good cable, good price, easy to work with. Thicker 12 AWG means no worries about longer runs and gives more confidence with a beefier feel. No issues using this wire in the closed screw copper banana plugs purchased on this site (banana plugs also house brand).

Plaque murale HDMI 2 pièces avec extension HDMI flexible intégrée de 4 pouces, blanc - PrimeCables®

4/5

They work and get the job done. I wasn't pushing any boundaries with only 1080p signals though. The flexible cable inside was handy since in-wall hdmi cables aren't as flexible and it made it a touch easier to connect inside. The mini 4 inch cable as it attaches to the faceplate is a bit odd though. It's not a snug clip, as there's maybe about 1cm of play where the connector can move "in and out" while clipped to the plate. The cables connect reasonably securely to both ends of the extension, but the extension itself wiggles back and forth in the faceplate. You only notice it when plugging or unplugging cables. Unnerving if you're not expecting it since it feels like it's going to push through, unclip and get lost inside the box/wall, but it hasn't unclipped on me.

Fiches banane haut de gamme en cuivre - type à vis fermée, 5 paires - PrimeCables®

5/5

I've crimped these onto both 12AWG regular speaker wire and 14AWG CL2 rated wire (both from this site, house branded). The insulation is a bit tight on the 12AWG, but it still worked. They seem solid, just make sure you remember to tighten the tip as well since they unscrew independently. I've done about 40 of these so far and aside from some sore fingers at times, they get the job done and are secure.

Support de charge à plusieurs contrôleurs pour les contrôleurs Nintendo Switch - Verbatim

3/5

It's surprisingly hard to charge a large number of pro controllers without a giant rats nest of cables. The plastic feels a bit flimsy with 2 pro controllers sitting on it. They aren't cradled/securely held, so they easily rock around in all directions while sitting on the USB connector. The upright LED bars are only for joycon charging status, and there are tiny little LEDs below for the pro controllers. So if you're just charging pro controllers, the uprights will always be lit green regardless of charge state of the pro controllers. Unfortunately, these are the best I've found so far, as others have somehow felt cheaper or had other issues. They still get the job done and have a decently small footprint, but I'm not sure they're worth the price. Just wish there was something better out there.

Plaque murale deux-pièces insérées liaison banane pour 1 haut-parleur, type coupleur - PrimeCables® - 5/paquet

3/5

They work, although the screws for the plates don't quite fit 100%. You first screw the inside plate to the box/bracket, then when you go to put the outer plate on, the inner screw heads stick out a tiny bit and cause the cover plate to bow out a touch. In the end they still work and you don't notice if you're not literally inspecting it. I used banana plugs on both the inside and the outside. Lastly, I ordered a 5 pack and on one, the plastic holding the red post was partially broken. Still attached, but doesn't sit quite straight as a result.

Support de montage 1 groupe faible voltage - PrimeCables® - 5pack

4/5

They work fine and the lastic is decently solid, although the picture is slightly inaccurate. The screws/brackets used to secure to the backside of the drywall are built into opposite corners, not the middle of the top and bottom. This simply means that after installing, it can twist a bit since you're not applying symmetric pressure.

Cat6A 28AWG UTP ultra-mince câble en vrac échoué CMR/FT4 500pi rouge

4/5

Used this cable for a long phone line (DSL) run, so not exactly stressing it, but wanted to run higher level stuff in case it gets repurposed later. It works great for DSL and the ultra thin is just nice to work with. The cable did not come on a spool of any sorts, only shrink wrapped in a coil and it difficult to partially remove the shrink wrap, so if you're not careful you could quickly have a large 500ft knot. Assuming this is the same cable used in their prefab patch cables, the cable works at gigabit ethernet speeds without any issue.

Great shelves for racks to hold non-rackmount hardware, or even tools while working in the rack. Being a rack rookie and looking at the pictures, I thought they might screw into the rear rails for extra support, but they don't even touch the back rails. Everything is supported off the front.

support mural Network Server Cabinet Armoire rack 15U PrimeCables®

4/5

Great Cabinet which is sturdy and comes with fans that plug into 120V. I would definitely buy more if I needed (and I believe I will be getting a 2nd one but maybe the 9U) given the price point. I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5 though for 2 reasons: First, the instructions are poor as both the print and video instructions completely miss the first assembly step. You can eventually figure it out once you determine which screws are needed for that first step. The rest of the instructions are fine. Second, what's the point of the lock on the front if the side panels come off easily.

1U 19 pouces en métal rack panneau de gestion des câbles , 5 D-Rings

3/5

First, seems to be the same as Cab-PC-07909 (picture and description are identical), but the other product is less than half the price? It does an ok job, but didn't really notice though that the D-Rings don't go quite to the end of the panel until I installed it, which means cables will droop over whatever is below it unless the cables are supported along the outside of the rack. Next time I'll likely get a fuller duct type panel for only a few dollars more.
