GigaTrue 3 Category 6 patch cable

This 15-ft Category 6 patch cable uses 24-AWG four-pair construction with 50-micron gold-plated contacts for reliable Gigabit Ethernet links. The hard-polymer LockPORT boot integrates a patented snagless design that accepts an optional locking pin and removal key for secure port connections. Red jacket colour aids quick cable identification in dense racks or patch panels.

Tested to 550 MHz with reduced crosstalk

Independent testing verifies 550-MHz bandwidth, well above the 250-MHz Category 6 baseline, lowering impedance, structural return loss and near-end crosstalk in normal operation. The robust connector rated for 750 insertion cycles maintains consistent contact resistance without active cooling or power draw. Passive UTP design adds no audible noise or thermal load to the installation.

Fits standard RJ-45 ports and frees adjacent jacks

Each end terminates in an RJ-45 male plug compatible with any Category 6 or lower RJ-45 jack on switches, routers, servers or wall outlets. The snagless LockPORT boot prevents latch damage during dense side-by-side deployments, preserving neighbouring port accessibility. Optional locking hardware secures mission-critical links without replacing the cable.

Questions about this item

How do I install the lockable RJ-45 connector and what step do people often miss?

Insert the RJ-45 plug fully until the LockPORT boot clicks, then insert the red locking pin into the built-in tab to secure the port; the pin and removal key are sold separately.

What maintenance or replacement will this Cat6 patch cable need over time?

The connectors are rated for 750 insertion and extraction cycles; replace the cable if the gold-plated contacts show wear or the lockable boot becomes damaged.

What limit appears first during sustained high-bandwidth use on this 550-MHz tested cable?

The cable exceeds the 250-MHz Category 6 specification and is tested to 550 MHz, so the installed network equipment’s port speed will be the limiting factor.
