Cable Leader 12ft Cat6a Patch Cable

This 12ft Cat6a Ethernet cable delivers a 10 Gigabit wired link for gaming, home and office networks. It uses 24AWG stranded bare copper conductors in a 4-pair cross-spline design with a 6.9mm outer diameter. Gold-plated 50-micron RJ45 contacts and snagless molded boots protect the locking clip. The cable is RoHS compliant and UL & ETL Verified.

Suits gamers and offices needing a drop

Ideal for PS5, Xbox, PC, router, switch, NAS or smart TV connections where a stable, low-latency wired path beats Wi-Fi. Backward compatible with Cat6 and Cat5e gear so it works with existing ports. Not for buyers who need shielded cable for noisy electrical environments or runs longer than the 100m Cat6a channel limit.

500MHz bandwidth enables 10GBASE-T to 100m

The Cat6a rating guarantees 500MHz performance, which is the single spec that decides whether this cable supports full 10 Gigabit speeds over the maximum channel distance. If your network only runs at 1 Gigabit, a lower-category cable would also work, so choose Cat6a when you need the 10G headroom.

Questions about this item

Does the 24 AWG stranded bare copper cable run warm or draw noticeable power on a 100 meter 10GBASE-T link?

The cable is passive copper; it carries signal only and generates no measurable heat or power draw at 500 MHz.

What RJ45 port speed must my router or switch already have to use this 500 MHz Cat6a cable at 10 Gbps?

Your equipment needs 10GBASE-T (10 GbE) ports; the cable is backward compatible with 1 GbE and 100 MbE gear but will run at the port's speed.

Will the 6.9 mm outer diameter and cross-spline core fit cleanly alongside my existing Cat5e patch cords in a 24-port patch panel?

Yes — the 6.9 mm OD is standard for Cat6a UTP and the snagless boots slide into dense panels without catching on older cables.
