    sach me kaam kar gaya

    was super skeptical ordering this online coz mostly local cables give driver issues with older industrial gear. just plugged it in for my router programming and it worked straight away without throwing any random errors. build feels solid enough and the length is okay for my desk setup.

    box was a bit crushed

    the outer cardboard box was slightly crushed during shipping and i got worried it might be damaged inside. thankfully the cable itself was safe and works perfectly with our label printer. the gold-plated connectors look neat.
