CableMAX 9ft Red Cat6 Snagless Patch Cable 24AWG 550MHz

SKU CH-5EC2-SJ3ZK

A nine-foot red Cat6 patch cable with snagless boots, 24AWG stranded conductors and 50-micron gold-plated staggered RJ45 connectors rated for 550 MHz bandwidth

  • Connector ARJ45
  • Connector BRJ45
  • ColorRed
  • 9 ft length gives flexible reach for desk or rack runs
  • 550 MHz Cat6 rating supports Gigabit Ethernet speeds
  • Snagless bubble boots protect the latch during frequent moves
  • 24 AWG stranded conductors with 50 micron gold-plated staggered pins reduce cross-talk
  • ETL verified to TIA 568B and CM fire-rated for in-wall safety

CableMAX 9ft Red Cat6 Snagless Patch Cable

This 9 ft red Category 6 patch cable connects two RJ45 ports for 10/100 or Gigabit Ethernet links. It uses 24 AWG stranded UTP with four twisted pairs and 50 micron gold-plated staggered pins to limit cross-talk. The snagless bubble boots protect the latch during routing. It is built for installers and home users who need a reliable, pre-terminated link.

Thermals noise and power draw

As a passive copper cable it generates no heat, produces no noise and draws no power of its own. The 24 AWG stranded conductors remain flexible for tight bends behind desks or in patch panels. Signal integrity is maintained up to the rated 550 MHz bandwidth without active components. No external supply or cooling is ever required.

Upgrade from Cat5 or Cat5e links

The cable exceeds Category 6 EIA/TIA requirements and is backwards compatible with Category 5e and Category 5 infrastructure. It replaces older patch cords when a full Cat6 channel is needed for Gigabit speeds. The jump is worth it when the existing cable plant is certified to Cat6 and the installer wants ETL-verified 568B wiring end to end.

Questions about this item

How do I install this 9ft Cat6 cable and which step do people often get wrong?

Push each RJ45 male connector firmly into the port until the tab clicks; the step users miss is confirming both 50 micron gold-plated staggered pins seat fully to limit cross-talk.

What maintenance or replacement will this Cat6 patch cable need later?

Inspect the red bubble boots and 24AWG stranded conductors periodically; replace the cable if boots tear, pins bend, or the CM-rated jacket shows cuts that could affect 550MHz performance.

What limit appears first on this cable under sustained Gigabit Ethernet use?

The 550MHz bandwidth ceiling of the 4-pair UTP stranded construction is the first limit reached during continuous high-throughput traffic.
