Best place to buy bulk patch cables...

[brxndxn]

What's the best place to buy quality patch cables? Every time my coworkers need a patch cable, they either order one or buy one at a store - and they're different every time.. I just want to start keeping an inventory so I can pass them out and we start using 'good quality' matching patch cables..

I want it to be snagless with a connector that doesn't just easily move up and down the end of the cable..

It would be nice if they have mini-usb, usb A to B, crossover, power, Y-power cables.. also

cheaper the better.. (I'll pay more for quality, though)

Order more than enough upfront and save on the cost of cables and shipping.

I bought a few Cat 6 cables from here and they work good and were a lot cheaper than any store I've seen.

Monoprice

www.pimfg.com is the place we use for USB and CAT5/6 patch cables.

Gee. I'm surprised nobody has mentioned Monoprice yet. 😉

P.S. Monoprice is good for Canadian orders, because they have good and inexpensive shipping options to Canada. Most other places that do ship to Canada cost too much for shipping, either up front, or with after-the-fact brokerage charges.

lol mr hytec--of [deleted].com?

Regardless, I actually logged in so I could post and say:

monoprice

Great prices, stunningly fast service--for orders within California, anyway, it seems you get overnight service for US Mail prices. Cables were all of high quality.

Monoprice: Great prices, great service, great quality--choose any three.

PS: no I do not work for them mr hytec!

Amazon sells a 25-pack of 7ft Cat5E patch cords for $36, or a 20 pack of 3ft ones for $19.90, both with free shipping.

They probably have other multi-packs too.

While Mono-price is good, I usually find better prices and more choice on Amazon.

Monoprice is $13.60 for the 3 footers and 28.50 for the 7ft cables and is available in a ton of colors.

8.65 to ship 25 cables so it is pretty close. I just order enough stuff from Monoprice to get bulk discount so.
