 Exactly as advertised July 17, 2010
J. Doyle (Orange County, California)
Came in retail packaging, works fine.
If you want to make sure there's no problem before you're all done with installation (like others have had happen) you can plug in a camera at the end and watch the signal as you work and attach the cable. If you put a staple through it, or over stretch it, or nick it, or pull an end off...you'll see the signal die right then...and won't have to search for the problem spot after all is done afterward.
Duh.
 SAVE YOURSELF - DO NOT BUY THIS! June 24, 2010

My husband spent an entire weekend installing a security system with this 100 cable. Finally finished, turned everything on and IT DIDN'T WORK. He's an electrical enginneer so has the ability to quality test the unit, cameras and cable and determined the cable was bad. Poor quality control and a piece of junk! Spend a few extra bucks, buy something else from somewhere else. I suggested to my husband to not buy this based on the bad feedback from others who had the idential problem, but you always think you'll be the exception. You're not. My husband will spend a day taking everything down and redoing all of his work. Reinstalling everything! What a waste of time for a $20 product that clearly has poor (probably zero) quality control. With this many people all having the same problem how can they sell this. Save yourself, DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT! With this much negative feedback with the same problem Amazon should REMOVE THIS PRODUCT FROM THEIR INVENTORY.
 Q-See OS 100B Video & Power 100 Foot BHC Male Cable w/2 Female connectors March 28, 2010
Star Warrior (Alhambra, Cailforna USA)
The cable is semi outdoor use. Easy to work with, and has everything needed to connect your camera to it. It work very good, and is thin so it will not look too bad in-side the house. I don't need any more cable, but if I need one I would buy one just like it. Cable was used for out-side camera, and the wire was place under the house eves, and in the open I put in a plasic 1/4"PCV pipe so the rain, and weather would not effect it. I am very happy with the result, and the cable. No problems.

The cable gave me an OK picture, but after a couple years outdoors it would snap/break wherever I touched it, exposing the shielding inside. Pretty lame.
NO Shielding and very noisy cable ! January 23, 2010

I installed the original Q-see 100ft(Q-See QS100B) and 50ft cable on my 4 cameras and all suffer huge noise especially on the 100ft one. There is no shielding at all for Q-See cable, so the video quality suffer.
Then I found the Swann 100ft (SW271-S30 )from Frys store and the result is amazing ! All the noise is gone for all my 4 cameras. There is no more annoying scanning lines at all. The shielding on Swann cable is doing a great job. Trust me. Save you some time. Don't buy the Q-See cable. Five more dollars will give you much better video quality. Now I have to remove all the Q-See cables from my wall and replace all them with Swann cable. Again, shielding really makes different !
