10 ft CAT6 patch cable
This 10 ft CAT6 patch cable is built for Gigabit Ethernet connections in homes and offices. It meets the 250 MHz industry standard and uses unshielded twisted-pair construction. A moulded snagless boot protects the RJ-45 clip and adds strain relief. The stranded conductors keep the cable flexible for routing around corners.
Wired networks needing a standard drop
Buyers who want a simple, certified link for routers, switches or wall plates will find the length and performance suitable. Installations that require shielded cabling for noisy environments should look at a different construction. Runs longer than the supplied length will need another cable or a coupler. Permanent in-wall pulls demand solid-conductor cable rated for that purpose.
250 MHz bandwidth rating
The cable is tested to a 250 MHz bandwidth, which is the benchmark for CAT6 Gigabit Ethernet performance. This figure confirms the cable can carry the signalling rates required for 1 Gbps data, voice, video and PoE traffic. If your network design calls for a higher frequency class, this specification indicates the limit of this part.

Questions about this item
Should I pick this 10-foot cable or a different length for my setup?
Choose the length that reaches between your devices with a little slack; this 10-foot version suits typical desk-to-wall or rack-to-patch-panel runs.
What does the 250-MHz rating actually deliver on a live Gigabit link?
The 250-MHz bandwidth meets the CAT6 standard, giving reliable 1 Gbps throughput for voice, data, video and PoE traffic.
How does the unshielded UTP design and RJ-45 interface affect real-world use?
UTP keeps the cable flexible and easy to route, while the standard RJ-45 plugs work with any Gigabit port, switch, router or patch panel.
