5 ft Cat6 UTP Patch Cable

This 5-foot Cat6 Ethernet cable uses 24AWG stranded bare copper conductors in four twisted pairs and terminates in RJ45 plugs with 50-micron gold-plated contacts. Tested to 550MHz, it exceeds the 250MHz Cat6 minimum and supports Gigabit Ethernet with 10G capability over short runs. The clear snagless boot protects the locking clip and reduces tangling at the port.

Home and office networking

It suits anyone adding a reliable wired link between a router, switch, console, PC or smart TV where an unshielded Cat6 patch cable fits. The white jacket and clear boot help with color-coded port labeling. Buyers who need shielded cabling, longer permanent-run lengths, or a higher bandwidth rating for certified 10G distances should look elsewhere.

Tested to 550MHz bandwidth

The 550MHz verification is the single figure that confirms headroom above the Cat6 baseline and determines whether this cable meets the performance margin your install requires.

Questions about this item

What does the 550 MHz rating on this Cat6 cable mean for real-world speed?

The 550 MHz rating exceeds the Cat6 minimum of 250 MHz, supporting reliable Gigabit Ethernet and 10G over short runs with headroom for signal integrity.

Will the 24 AWG stranded conductors and snagless boot fit tightly spaced router ports?

The 24 AWG stranded wire is flexible for tight bends, and the clear snagless boot protects the locking clip without adding bulk that blocks adjacent ports.

How do I correctly seat the gold-plated RJ45 plugs so the connection locks?

Push each 8P8C Triplex plug firmly until the tab clicks; the snagless boot covers the clip, so you must feel the click rather than see the tab engage.
