Just be careful unspooling it, it loves to kink up and any bend with a radius tighter than like 2 inches ruins the cable.

I once helped my brother run about 15 strands through his house and only around half of them actually worked when we were done. Wish we knew that when we started.

Back-coiling is a game changer. Every other coil is reversed, leaving a net zero in coils. It just pulls out straight.

It was a leftover spool from a contractor friend of his that would have just been thrown away otherwise.
