50 ft Cat6 Patch Cable for Wired Networks
This 50-foot Category 6 cable connects computers, routers, switches or NAS devices using standard RJ45 plugs. It is built with 24AWG stranded pure bare copper conductors and 550 MHz bandwidth to support gigabit speeds in home and office installations. The blue jacket makes it easy to identify in crowded racks.
Snagless Boots Simplify Routing Through Tight Spaces
Flexible stranded conductors and colour-matched snagless strain-relief boots let the cable bend around corners without catching on adjacent leads. Gold-plated contacts rated at 50 µm resist oxidation better than the 10 µm coating found on many budget cords. No special tools are required; simply press the connectors until they click.
Verify Port Compatibility
Ensure both endpoints have RJ45 ports and that a 50-foot run covers the distance without excess slack. The cable uses unshielded twisted pairs, so it is not suited for environments that demand shielded cabling. It meets UL 444 and TIA-568-C requirements for pure bare copper construction.

Questions about this item
How can I verify the cable is performing at its rated 550MHz bandwidth after installation?
Use a cable certifier or network tester that measures frequency response up to 550MHz; a passing result confirms the 24AWG pure bare copper conductors and gold-plated contacts are delivering the specified Cat6 performance.
What comes in the box and do I need any extra connectors or tools?
The package contains the 50 ft blue Cat6 patch cable with RJ45 plugs on both ends, colour-matched snagless boots and 50µm gold-plated contacts; no additional connectors or crimping tools are required.
When should I choose this 50 ft blue version instead of a different length or colour?
Select this model when the run between devices is approximately 50 ft and you want the blue jacket for easy identification; other lengths and colours are available under the same 2118 series for different distance or coding needs.
