What this cable is and who it fits
A two-foot Cat6 UTP patch cable with RJ45 male connectors on both ends. The red jacket and snagless strain relief make it easy to identify and remove in a busy rack or desk setup. It replaces older Cat5 links that cannot carry 100 Base-T or Gigabit Ethernet traffic.
The specification that decides fit
Category 6 rating is the single figure that determines whether this cable supports the required bandwidth. If the installation demands Cat6 performance, this length and connector type will work; if a different category or longer run is needed, this is not the right part.
Capacity and where it stops
The 2 ft length comfortably handles short patch-panel to switch jumps or desktop connections at Gigabit speeds. Beyond that distance the cable simply does not reach, so any run requiring more slack must use a longer cable instead.

Questions about this item
What does the Cat6 rating actually deliver in a live network?
The cable is built to the Category 6 specification, so it supports Gigabit Ethernet and 100 Base-T links when both ends are connected to matching ports.
What connector standard is used and what speed does it cap at?
Both ends terminate in RJ45 male plugs wired for all four pairs, limiting the link to the 1 Gbps ceiling of the Cat6 standard.
Will the 2 ft length and snagless boots fit my patch panel or switch?
At two feet long with low-profile snagless moulded boots, it reaches adjacent ports on a dense patch panel or switch without blocking neighbouring jacks.
