Cable Leader Cat6a 2ft Patch Cable

This 2ft Cat6a Ethernet cable provides a wired 10 Gigabit link for gaming consoles, desktop PCs and network gear. It meets the Cat6a standard at 500MHz and is backward compatible with Cat6 and Cat5e equipment. The short length keeps a desk or console area tidy while delivering a stable connection that avoids Wi-Fi latency and packet loss.

50-micron gold contacts and cross-spline core

Each end uses 8P8C RJ45 connectors with 50-micron gold-plated contacts for reliable signal integrity. Inside, four twisted pairs wrap around a 6.9mm cross-shaped spline to reduce crosstalk, and the conductors are 24AWG stranded bare copper. Snagless molded PVC boots protect the locking clips and resist tangling during routing. The cable is RoHS compliant and UL & ETL Verified.

10GBASE-T up to 100 metres

The Cat6a rating supports 10GBASE-T speeds over full 100 metre runs, so this 2ft patch lead has ample headroom for any short-distance link. It handles router-to-switch uplinks, console-to-router drops and PoE injector feeds without bottleneck. The limiting factor is the fixed 2ft reach; longer paths need a longer cable. It is not suited for runs that exceed the supplied length or for installations requiring shielded cable.

Questions about this item

Will the RJ45 connectors or the 24 AWG stranded copper conductors need replacement after repeated plugging?

The 50-micron gold-plated contacts and snagless molded boots are built for repeated insertion cycles; the 24 AWG stranded conductors resist fatigue better than solid core, so no scheduled replacement is expected.

What performance limit appears first when the 2 ft patch cable runs 10 GBASE-T continuously at 500 MHz?

At 2 ft the cable is far below the 100 m channel limit, so the 500 MHz Cat6a bandwidth and 10 GBASE-T signalling remain within specification; the practical limit will be the connected switch or NIC port speed.

Does the 6.9 mm unshielded jacket generate noticeable heat or require extra power when carrying PoE all day?

The 24 AWG bare copper pairs handle PoE currents without measurable temperature rise on a 2 ft run; the cable draws no power itself and adds no audible noise to the installation.
