2 ft Cat6 patch cable for short Gigabit links

This 2-foot Category 6 cable connects a workstation to a wall outlet or patches a hub to a distribution panel. It uses 24 AWG stranded 100% copper conductors and moulded RJ45 plugs at each end. The UL-rated wire carries ETL verification for safety compliance.

Multi-Gigabit throughput with PoE support

The cable is rated for 1, 2.5, 5 and 10 Gbps speeds up to 160 ft at 250 MHz bandwidth. It supports 100 W Power over Ethernet so compatible devices can draw power through the same run. Stranded conductors maintain signal integrity during frequent reconnection.

Moulded strain relief for rack and desk use

Black PVC jacketing and integral moulded boots protect the RJ45 latches from snapping during routing. The short 2 ft length reduces slack in dense patch panels or beside a desktop switch. ETL verification and UL-rated wire confirm the build meets recognised safety standards.

Questions about this item

Does the 24 AWG stranded copper and 100 W PoE rating cause noticeable heat on a 2 ft run?

The 24 AWG stranded copper is rated for 100 W PoE, so heat rise on a 2 ft length stays negligible under full load.

What devices must already have RJ45 ports to use this Cat6 patch cable?

Both endpoints — such as a workstation, wall outlet, hub or distribution panel — need standard RJ45 jacks to plug the molded connectors into.

Will this 250 MHz Cat6 cable work with older 10/100 Mbps switches I still own?

Yes, the Cat6 specification is backward compatible, so the cable negotiates down to 10 or 100 Mbps on legacy ports without any configuration.
