CableMAX 8ft Cat6 network ethernet cable Black 550MHz 24AWG stranded UTP snagless RJ45

SKU CH-MGZF-MN8KG

An 8 ft Cat6 patch cable rated at 550 MHz with snagless boots and gold-plated staggered connectors for gigabit Ethernet

  • Connector ARJ45
  • Connector BRJ45
  • ColorBlack
  • 550 MHz bandwidth supports gigabit speeds
  • 24 AWG stranded conductors keep the cable flexible
  • snagless bubble boots protect the latch during pulls
  • 50-micron gold-plated staggered pins reduce cross-talk
  • CM fire rating meets in-wall safety code

Ready for Gigabit Ethernet

This eight-foot Category 6 patch cable connects two RJ45 ports with male-to-male connectors. It is built from 24AWG stranded UTP wire rated at 550 MHz and exceeds the Category 6 specification. Gold-plated staggered pins reduce cross-talk for reliable throughput. The snagless bubble boots protect the locking tabs during routing.

Check your port spacing and run length

Verify that both endpoints use standard RJ45 jacks and that an eight-foot run reaches without tension. The staggered pin layout requires full insertion depth, so recessed ports must accept the boot profile. Confirm the existing infrastructure is rated for Category 6 or higher to maintain end-to-end performance.

Fits a structured Cat6 channel

Use this patch lead to complete a Category 6 horizontal or cross-connect link between a switch, router, patch panel or workstation outlet. The CM fire rating suits general indoor routing. Backwards compatibility with Category 5e and Category 5 lets it serve mixed environments while preserving headroom for Gigabit Ethernet traffic.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box and do I need to buy any extra connectors?

The cable arrives with RJ45 male-to-male connectors already fitted on both ends, so no separate plugs or adapters are required.

Should I choose a different length or gauge for a short desktop run?

This 8 ft patch lead uses 24 AWG stranded conductors, which stay flexible for desk-length connections without needing a heavier or shorter variant.

What does the 550 MHz rating mean for my actual network speed?

The 550 MHz bandwidth supports full Gigabit Ethernet and 10/100 Base-T throughput across the 8 ft run, exceeding the standard Category 6 requirement.
