Cat6 20 ft 550 MHz Patch Cable

This Cat6 Ethernet cable provides a 20 ft white connection rated at 550 MHz for Gigabit networks. It uses RJ45 connectors and is backwards compatible with Cat5 infrastructure. The snagless design protects the locking tabs during installation and daily handling. Gold-plated contacts help maintain a clean signal path over time.

Home, Office and Console Wiring

Suitable for linking PCs, routers, switches, modems and gaming consoles in residential or small-business settings. The flexible jacket resists tangling and eases routing around corners or through trunking. Buyers who need longer runs, shielded construction or higher category ratings should look at alternative cables.

550 MHz Bandwidth Rating

The 550 MHz bandwidth specification determines the cable's capacity to carry Gigabit Ethernet at 1000 Mbps without errors. Verify that your network equipment and required link distance match this category performance before purchase.

Questions about this item

Will the gold-plated RJ45 connectors need replacement if they oxidise after years in a humid server rack?

Gold plating resists oxidation, so the RJ45 contacts on this Cat6 cable should maintain reliable conductivity without needing connector replacement under normal indoor conditions.

At what length does the 550 MHz bandwidth limit drop below Gigabit speeds on this 20 ft run?

The 20 ft length is well within the 100 m Cat6 channel limit, so the 550 MHz rating supports full 1000 Mbps Gigabit Ethernet without bandwidth degradation.

Does the PVC jacket emit noticeable heat when the cable carries continuous 1000 Mbps traffic all day?

Ethernet cables carry negligible current, so the jacket remains at ambient temperature even during sustained Gigabit throughput — no perceptible heat is produced.
