Cat6 250 MHz patch cable

This four-foot yellow patch cable carries a Category 6 rating at 250 MHz for Gigabit Ethernet links. It uses 28 AWG stranded conductors inside a PVC jacket and terminates in RJ-45 male plugs on both ends. The snagless boots protect the latch during frequent moves. It is built for network devices that need a short, flexible link.

28 AWG stranded construction

The thin 28 AWG strands make the cable easy to route through tight cable managers and around patch panels. At 250 MHz the cable handles 1 Gbps traffic with headroom for the full four-foot run. Beyond that length the finer gauge increases attenuation so longer permanent links should use thicker wire. The stranded core is not intended for solid-conductor backbone installations.

Snagless boots and PVC jacket

The snagless moulded boots prevent the latch from catching on adjacent cables during adds or changes. The yellow PVC jacket resists everyday abrasion in office or rack environments. Power-over-Ethernet current passes through the standard RJ-45 pins without extra heating. The cable meets Cat 6 electrical requirements for typical patch-cord distances.

Questions about this item

Will this 4 ft Cat6 250 MHz 28 AWG cable connect properly to my older router and switch?

Yes, the RJ-45 connectors on both ends fit standard Ethernet ports on legacy network devices.

How can I verify the 250 MHz Cat6 link is performing after I plug in the 4 ft yellow patch cable?

Check the link lights on both ports for a solid green or amber connection and run a speed test to confirm gigabit throughput.

Does the box include only the 4 ft snagless Cat6 patch cable or are extra couplers or tools supplied?

The package contains the single 4 ft yellow UTP patch cable with RJ-45 male connectors; no couplers or tools are included.
