So you need a 50 feet VGA / SVGA cable for a projector. Where on earth can you find that? You've already called all the big box stores and the crickets in the background tell you that you're barking up the wrong tree. Luckily for you there is a place in Orem, Utah that stocks up to 100 feet SVGA cables AND they have them at discounted prices. So check out WhataCable.com You'll be very surprised at the many choices and the amazing prices. You can order online and have the cables delivered or run down to their showroom and pick the cable up Monday through Friday, 8:30 am to 5:00 pm. You'll be impressing clients with your power point on the projector... or if you're like me, watching Tron at home with your projector!

CAT6-orem-utah-salt-lake

So you're setting up a network and you're wondering, "Do I put in CAT6 or CAT5E cables? " The answer depends on EVERYTHING in the system. Think of the cables as pipes. If you have a 1/2" pipe in the middle of the house, but all the other pipes are 1/4" , then you will never get more than 1/4" of flow through the pipes. A network is similar. If you're network card, router, server, wires in the wall, patch panels, etc. are CAT5E, adding CAT6 cables makes no sense. Also, if you are doing short runs under 25 feet, even if everything else is Gigabit rated, you're probably not going to notice a difference between the CAT6 and CAT5E cable. That being said, you'll never decrease your speed by running CAT6 and some feel better about running that CAT6 cable. It has a slightly different feel to the wire as the the wires inside are paired and twisted differently. Both cables are unshielded (UTP). So feel free to run CAT6, but know in most cases for shorter runs, you'll be just fine with that CAT5E cable. If you are close to Orem, Provo, or Salt Lake City, Utah, you should know about WhataCable.com located in Orem, Utah. They deeply discount CAT5E and CAT6 cables. They have a huge supply of inventory to choose from. Give them a call or hop on their website. You can even go see them and their showroom. Don't pay full retail for these at the big box companies. Save yourself or your company some money!

So you're an IT manager or system admin for your company and you need a network cable, or maybe 100 ethernet patch cords, and you really could use them today, or at least by tomorrow. Where do you turn if you are in Orem, Provo, or Salt Lake City, Utah? Hopefully you don't run down to the big box store and pay full retail. I would suggest you take a look at www.whatacable.com They offer deeply discounted, or wholesale prices, to companies nationwide and they just happen to be located in Orem, Utah! That means Monday through Friday, 8:30 AM to 5:00 PM you can actually run down to their showroom and pick up the cables you need. Or order online or call an order in and have them delivered either the same day or the next day. They have small minimums for free freight! That's my advice!
