2ft Cat6a Patch Cable for 10 Gigabit Networks

This 2-foot Cat6a Ethernet cable delivers a 10 Gigabit wired link for gaming, office and home networks. It uses 24AWG stranded bare copper conductors in a 4-pair cross-spline construction with an outer diameter of 6.9mm. Gold-plated RJ45 contacts and snagless boots ensure a secure, low-latency connection that outperforms Wi-Fi.

Ideal for Short Runs — Not for Long Horizontal

The short length suits desk-side links between a PC, PS5, Xbox, router, switch or NAS where tidy routing matters. Buyers who need runs longer than 2 feet or who require shielded cable for noisy environments should select a different length or a shielded variant instead.

500MHz Cat6a Rating Enables 10GBASE-T to 100m

The cable meets the Cat6a standard at 500MHz, supporting 10GBASE-T speeds up to 100 meters. This single rating confirms it will handle 10 Gigabit throughput on any compatible port, while remaining backward compatible with Cat6 and Cat5e equipment.

Questions about this item

What RJ45 ports do I need on my router or console for this Cat6a cable to plug in?

Any standard 8P8C RJ45 jack works — the cable terminates in two RJ45 connectors with 50-micron gold-plated contacts that fit routers, modems, switches, PS5, Xbox, PCs, NAS units and smart TVs.

Will this 500MHz Cat6a patch cable run at full speed if my switch only supports Cat6 or Cat5e?

Yes — the cable is backward compatible with Cat6 and Cat5e, so it drops straight into existing gear; the link will simply negotiate to the highest speed both ends support.

How can I verify the link is running at 10GBASE-T after I connect the 2ft red cable?

Check the port LEDs or your OS network status — a 10 Gb/s negotiated speed and stable ping with no packet loss confirms the 10GBASE-T connection is active.
