  • TypeNetwork Ethernet Cables
  • Cat6A
  • Connector ARJ45
  • Connector BRJ45
  • Length1 ft
  • ColorRed
  • Supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet up to 100 metres
  • 550 MHz bandwidth rating enables high-speed data transfer
  • 50 micron gold-plated RJ45 contacts resist corrosion
  • 24 AWG stranded pure copper conductors ensure reliable signal
  • CM-rated PVC jacket meets safety standards for in-wall use

1 ft Cat6A patch cable for short runs

This 1 ft Cat6A UTP cable uses 4-pair 24 AWG stranded pure copper conductors with RJ45 plugs and 50 micron gold-plated contacts. The CM-rated PVC jacket meets TIA/EIA standards verified by UL and ETL and is RoHS compliant. It is wired to the T568B standard and suited for patch-panel, switch or device connections in a rack or on a desk.

500 MHz bandwidth and 10 Gbps headroom

The cable operates at a minimum 500 MHz and is rated to 550 MHz, supporting 10Base-T, 100Base-T, 1000Base-T and 10,000Base-T Ethernet. At 1 ft it provides ample headroom for 10 Gigabit links within a cabinet, while the Cat6A specification allows runs up to 100 meters (328 ft) for full-distance 10 Gbps connections.

Upgrade from Cat5e or Cat6 links

Replacing Cat5e or standard Cat6 patch cords with this Cat6A cable adds crosstalk suppression, better heat dissipation for PoE and the 500 MHz-plus bandwidth needed for reliable 10 Gbps throughput. The jump is worth it when 10 Gigabit switches or servers are deployed and existing patch cords become the bottleneck.

Questions about this item

Will the 1 ft Cat6A cable work with my older Cat5e router and gigabit switch?

Yes. The RJ45 connectors are backwards compatible with 10Base-T, 100Base-T and 1000Base-T equipment, so the cable will link at the highest speed both devices support.

How can I verify the 500 MHz / 10 Gigabit performance after I plug it in?

Check the link speed in your OS or switch dashboard — it should negotiate 10 Gbps — and run a throughput test such as iperf3 to confirm sustained 10 Gbit/s transfer.

Does the single 1 ft red cable come with any boots, ties or extra connectors, or do I need to buy them separately?

The cable has moulded strain-relief boots on both RJ45 ends; no additional ties, couplers or connectors are included in the package.
