Vivanco 45707 2m Cat 7 Network Ethernet Cable vs Fax/Modem TAE N Plug to RJ12 Plug 10 Metre Lead — Comparison

Vivanco 45707 is Vivanco 45707 2m Cat 7 Network Ethernet Cable, priced at £5.97, while Vivanco Fax/Modem Lead is Vivanco Fax/Modem TAE N Plug to RJ12 Plug 10 Metre Lead, priced at £3.97. In Vivanco's computer accessories range, Vivanco 45707 sits as a modern wired-network cable for short Ethernet runs, whereas Vivanco Fax/Modem Lead sits as a longer legacy modem cable for telephone-style connections. The useful comparison is model purpose, specification and finish, not overall brand appeal.

Vivanco 45707 offers Cat 7 networking, 2m length and foil shielding. Vivanco Fax/Modem Lead offers a 10m telephone cable with RJ12 plug, Modem TAE N plug and compatibility with all modems. The main difference is purpose and reach: the 45707 is shorter but built for Ethernet networking, while the fax/modem lead is five times longer and uses modem plugs. That is important because capacity, power, ports, programmes or cable length shape the purchase more than the shared brand name.

Vivanco 45707 suits buyers connecting network hardware in the same room, especially where shielding and a neat two-metre length matter. Vivanco Fax/Modem Lead suits buyers who need to place a modem away from a telephone socket or maintain an older TAE N to RJ12 setup. At £5.97 versus £3.97, the trade-off is paying £2 more for a Cat 7 network cable versus choosing the cheaper, longer lead only when its modem plugs are right. UK buyers should also think about storage, setup and how often the item will be used, because the better-value model is the one that solves the repeated job cleanly.

Bottom line: choose Vivanco 45707 if you need a foil-shielded 2m Cat 7 Ethernet cable for a router, PC or smart TV / opt for Vivanco Fax/Modem Lead if you need a lower-cost 10m TAE N to RJ12 modem lead and do not need Ethernet networking.
