Teams continuously unplug and replug the ethernet port on their driver station laptops at competitions. This makes them susceptible to damage. Should the port on the cable you linked break, only that has to be replaced, instead of the entire DS laptop. We had an issue with a loose ethernet port on our laptop this year, so I'm ranking this high on my FIRST Choice/purchase wish list.
