12ft Cat6a 500MHz Ethernet cable

This 12ft Cat6a patch cable delivers a 10 Gigabit wired connection for gaming PCs, consoles and home networks. It uses 24AWG stranded bare copper conductors with a cross-spline core to meet the 500MHz Cat6a standard. Gold-plated RJ45 contacts and a snagless boot protect the locking clip during installation.

Drop-in upgrade for existing Cat6 or Cat5e runs

The cable is fully backward compatible with Cat6 and Cat5e, so it fits into any RJ45 port without changing switches, routers or patch panels. Unshielded UTP construction keeps the 6.9mm outer diameter flexible for routing around desks or through cable management channels. It supports Power over Ethernet injectors and works with modems, NAS units and smart TVs.

Suits gamers and home-office users wanting

Buyers who need shielded cable for high-interference environments should look elsewhere. Installers requiring plenum-rated jacket material or lengths beyond 100 metres for 10GBASE-T will need a different specification. Anyone wanting a pre-terminated 12ft run with snagless boots for a quick, reliable connection will find this cable fits the job.

Questions about this item

What is the maximum run length before the 10 Gigabit signal drops below spec?

The Cat6a standard supports 10GBASE-T up to 100 meters at 500 MHz, so a 12 ft patch cable leaves ample headroom for the remaining run.

Does the cable run warm or draw extra power when carrying 10 Gbps all day?

Passive copper patch cables generate no measurable heat and consume no power regardless of data rate.

Will this work straight out of the box with the RJ45 ports on my PS5 and router?

Yes, both ends are standard 8P8C RJ45 connectors with 50 micron gold plated contacts, compatible with any Gigabit or 10 Gigabit Ethernet port.
