6 ft Cat6a UTP Patch Cable
This AddOn ADD6FCAT6ABE is a six‑foot Cat6a unshielded twisted‑pair patch cable with RJ‑45 male connectors on both ends. The blue PVC jacket uses a snagless micro‑boot design that protects the latch during frequent moves. It is built for LAN and SAN links between switches, routers, media converters and fibre patch panels where 10 GBase‑T performance is required.
Ideal for 10 GbE patching, not for shielded runs
Installers who need a short, flexible Cat6a link for 100Base‑TX, 1000Base‑T or 10GBase‑T up to the full 100 metre channel will find this cable a direct fit. Buyers who require shielded or outdoor‑rated cabling, longer pre‑terminated lengths, or fibre optic media should look at other product types.
Cat6a rating supports 500 MHz bandwidth
The single specification that decides suitability is the Cat6a classification, which guarantees 500 MHz channel performance and 10 GBase‑T operation over 100 metres. If your infrastructure only demands 1 GbE, a lower category cable will also work, but this cable ensures headroom for 10 GbE without recabling.

Questions about this item
What network ports does this 6 ft Cat6a cable plug into?
It has RJ-45 male connectors on both ends, so it fits standard Ethernet ports on routers, switches, patch panels and network cards.
Will this Cat6a cable work with my existing 1000Base-T switch?
Yes, the Cat6a specification covers 100Base-TX and 1000Base-T, so the cable will link at gigabit speeds with that hardware.
How can I verify the cable is delivering 10GBase-T performance after I install it?
Check the link speed reported by your switch or network adapter; it should show a 10 Gbps connection when both ends support 10GBase-T.
