Ready-made Cat6 link for home or office

This 15.24-metre yellow patch cable terminates in RJ45 plugs with 50-micron gold contacts and snagless boots. Stranded 24AWG pure bare copper conductors meet UL 444 and TIA-568-C requirements for permanent installations. The UTP construction keeps the cable flexible for routing around corners and through cable management channels.

Bandwidth ceiling and distance limit

Rated at 550MHz, the cable supports gigabit Ethernet across its full 15.24-metre length without signal degradation. Beyond 100 metres total channel length the Cat6 standard no longer guarantees 1Gbps throughput, so longer runs need a switch or repeater. The unshielded design also means the cable is more susceptible to electromagnetic interference in dense wiring looms.

Replaces Cat5e or damaged Cat6 leads

Swapping a Cat5e patch cord for this cable raises the available bandwidth headroom from 100MHz to 550MHz, which matters when the link carries heavy local traffic or PoE loads. It is not a substitute for fibre or Cat6a when 10Gbps over copper is required, nor does it add shielding for industrial environments.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 50-foot yellow Cat6 cable or a different length for my network run?

The 15.24-metre (50 ft) yellow Cat6 patch cable suits runs up to that distance; select a shorter or longer version only if your measured cable path differs.

What does the 550 MHz bandwidth rating deliver in an actual installation?

The 550 MHz bandwidth supports Cat6 performance up to 1 Gbps at 100 metres and 10 Gbps at shorter distances, limited by the 24 AWG stranded pure bare copper conductors.

How does the RJ45 interface with 50-micron gold contacts affect real-world connectivity?

The RJ45 plugs with 50-micron gold-plated contacts resist corrosion and maintain low resistance, ensuring reliable Cat6 link negotiation and PoE power delivery through the 24 AWG copper pairs.
