Belkin PRO Series parallel cable - 15 m

Advantages: Good cable,
Disadvantages: Quite pricey

...Network cables are maybe not the first thing you think of when considering a network but they should be. You can have a super fast router but if your cable isnt up to it, then why bother. Belkin are the standard setters in the network cable world. If you want top quality then you buy belkin. So if your considering sharing an internet connection to play games etc then you really need decent cable. However, if like me you only share your connection for browsing and downloading, then you don't really need this kind of high quality cable. I personally have cable running that I bought for £2.14 for a 15m cable (that includes the connectors on the end). For internet browsing etc this is fine. In conclusion, if you need speed and low ping times then belkin is the way to go. You can even use the snagless cable to allow easier running... Read review

Advantages: gives you an extra 1.8 meters on any USB product
Disadvantages: none

...that could connect my headset to the computer and let me use it, and this is what I did. I trudged down to my local PC world and paid a little money for a 1.8 meter Belkin Pro Series USB Extension Cable and was very very happy with it when I got home. It is very well made with a nice thick rubber protective rapping over the wire inside so unless you cut it with a knife its not going to be damaged if you full on it a little or even a allot. It supports all standard USB ports with its well made male plug (the bit that goes into the computer) and on the other end of the cable has a nice thick female port (the bit that you will stick your USB device in) I have had no problems with this cable at all, it doesn't suffer from any lag and because it has a thick cable it doesn't snap or damage if you catch it with you feet while its laying on the floor...

Advantages: 6 Plug Holes Heavy Duty Case
Disadvantages: Rubber Plug Caps

...I purchased a Belkin SurgePro for the protection of my new Computer on 31st March 2004. I am very pleased with the quality of the product and having a metal construction it makes it ideal for heavy duty work (unlike me just having it for my computer). It has a long lead (5m) and has lights to tell you its on and that it is protected. It also comes with product insurance so if you do get a surge/spike and it damages something you have plugged into it you can claim (I dont know how easy it is to claim as I have not had any problems). The price is very good under £15 most places, so you get a lot for your money ie 5 meter lead and 6 sockets. The only problem I would say is that the hole protectors get in the way when plugging in large plugs (speakers etc) so for such a good product its a shame belkin didn't notice this! You can get...
