12-Pack Cat6 Patch Cables for High-Density Panels

This 12-pack of 1-foot blue Cat6 patch cables is built for installers populating 12, 24, 48 or 96-port patch panels and network switches. Each cable uses 24AWG stranded pure bare copper conductors and meets UL 444 and TIA-568-C.2 requirements for communications wiring. The FLEXboot design makes the retaining clip easier to depress in tight rack spaces.

Thermals Noise and Power Draw

Passive copper cables generate no heat, produce no acoustic noise and draw no electrical power during operation. Signal integrity is maintained through 50-micron gold-plated modular plugs that resist corrosion. The unshielded twisted-pair construction relies on the installer’s cable management to limit external interference in the rack.

550 MHz Bandwidth Rating

The cables are rated for Cat6 1 Gigabit performance with a tested bandwidth of 550 MHz, which is the specification that determines whether the link supports the desired throughput. Buyers needing shielded cable, longer runs or higher category ratings such as Cat6a or Cat7 should select a different product line.

Questions about this item

How do I plug the FLEXboot RJ45 connector into a dense 48-port patch panel without snagging the retaining clip?

The thin FLEXboot snagless boot covers the clip, so you can depress it easily with one finger and slide the plug straight into the port without catching adjacent cables.

Will the 50 µm gold-plated contacts need cleaning or replacement over time?

The 50 µm gold plating resists corrosion, so the contacts do not require periodic cleaning or scheduled replacement under normal indoor use.

At what bandwidth does signal integrity become the limiting factor on a 1-foot run?

The cable is tested to 550 MHz bandwidth, which is the first limit reached before length-related attenuation matters on a 1-foot link.
