sakose Cat 6 network ethernet cable 7 ft 550 MHz 2 pack

Two-pack Cat 6 patch cables

This pack contains two Cat 6 Ethernet patch cables, each seven feet long. They are built to the Category 6 Enhanced 550 MHz specification and use unshielded twisted-pair construction with a PVC jacket. Each cable has 24 AWG conductors arranged in four pairs and is terminated to the TIA/EIA 568B.2 wiring standard. The cables support 10, 100 and 1000 Mbps Ethernet links.

Replaces older Cat 5 or Cat 5e runs

Swapping Cat 5 or Cat 5e patch cords for these Cat 6 cables raises the certified bandwidth to 550 MHz and ensures reliable gigabit throughput on existing 10/100/1000 ports. The upgrade is worth it when longer patch runs must meet the tighter crosstalk and return-loss limits of the Category 6 standard. Existing Cat 6 cables in good condition do not need replacement.

Suits home and office gigabit drops

The seven-foot length suits desktop-to-switch, wall-plate-to-router or patch-panel connections in typical workspaces. Buyers who need shielded cable for high-EMI environments, plenum-rated jacket for air-handling spaces, or lengths beyond seven feet should look at other cable types. The unshielded PVC construction is not rated for outdoor or in-wall riser installations.
