Built for 10 Gigabit networks

This Cat6a patch cable is rated for 10GBASE-T at 500MHz and runs 3ft between two RJ45 ports. It suits gamers, streamers and office users who want a short, reliable wired link for a PS5, Xbox, PC, router or NAS without excess cable clutter. The orange jacket makes it easy to identify in a busy rack or behind a desk.

Check your ports and distance

Verify that both ends of the run use RJ45 sockets and that the total channel length stays within the 100m limit for 10GBASE-T. The cable is unshielded UTP with 24AWG stranded bare copper, so it fits standard keystones, patch panels and PoE injectors, but it will not fit shielded-only couplers or non-RJ45 interfaces.

Replaces Cat5e or Cat6 patch cords

Swapping an older Cat5e or Cat6 lead for this Cat6a cable raises the bandwidth ceiling to 500MHz and supports 10 Gigabit speeds over the full 100m distance. The upgrade is worth it when you move to a 10GBASE-T switch, add a multi-gig router or need lower latency for competitive gaming and large file transfers to a NAS.

Questions about this item

Does the 3ft Cat6a cable come with everything needed to connect a PS5 or router, or must I buy connectors separately?

The cable ships ready to use with RJ45 plugs on both ends, so no extra connectors are required.

The listing mentions 24AWG stranded bare copper and a 6.9mm outer diameter — which of those details should guide my choice?

Both are fixed on this model; the 24AWG stranded conductors and 6.9mm diameter are built in, so you simply pick the 3ft orange length you need.

What does the 500MHz rating actually deliver when the cable is plugged into a gaming PC or console?

It supports 10GBASE-T at up to 100 metres, giving a low-latency 10 Gigabit wired link that outperforms typical Wi-Fi for gaming.
