GigaTrue 3 CAT6 550 MHz lockable patch cable

This Category 6 UTP cable carries RJ-45 male connectors at both ends and measures 5 ft (1.5 m) in a red jacket. The lockable tab helps prevent accidental disconnection in busy racks or wall plates. It is built for gigabit-speed networks and 550 MHz bandwidth headroom. ||

Suited for fixed gigabit links, not for PoE+ runs

Installers who need a short, colour-coded drop with a positive latch will find this cable a direct fit. Buyers who require shielded construction, outdoor rating or Power over Ethernet Plus current capacity should look at a different cable type. ||

550 MHz bandwidth rating decides fit

The 550 MHz sweep-tested frequency is the sole specification that determines whether the link meets Category 6 performance for the intended run length. If the design calls for a higher frequency class or a different length, this part will not satisfy the requirement.

Questions about this item

Will the 550 MHz Cat 6 cable work with my older Cat 5e router ports?

Yes, the Category 6 cable is fully backward compatible with Cat 5e and Cat 5 ports, so it will connect and run at the speed the older equipment supports.

How can I confirm the lockable RJ-45 connectors are seated correctly after plugging them in?

Push each connector until you feel a distinct click; the latch will hold the plug firmly and resist a gentle tug, confirming a secure link.

Does the 5 ft red patch cable include any mounting clips or cable ties in the box?

The package contains only the single 5 ft UTP patch cable with RJ-45 male connectors on both ends; clips or ties are not included.
