6 ft Cat6 patch cable

This 6 ft Cat6 patch cable provides a wired Ethernet link for desktop PCs, switches or routers. The green jacket and coloured hoods help identify connections in a structured cabling system. It uses 24 AWG stranded 100% copper conductors and is rated for 250 MHz bandwidth.

Suited for short desktop or patch-panel runs

The 6 ft length suits desk-to-switch or patch-panel links inside a rack. Buyers who need longer horizontal runs, outdoor rating or shielded construction should look at a different cable type.

250 MHz bandwidth rating

The cable is tested to keep Near End Crosstalk within Category 6 limits at 250 MHz, supporting Multi-Gigabit speeds up to 10 Gbps over short distances. This figure determines whether the link meets the performance tier your network gear expects.

Questions about this item

Will the 250 MHz bandwidth limit show up before the 10 Gbps speed drops off on a long run?

The cable is rated for 10 Gbps up to 160 ft and tested to 250 MHz, so the frequency ceiling and the speed ceiling are specified together for that distance.

Does the 24 AWG stranded copper conductor run warm when carrying 100 W PoE continuously?

The 24 AWG 100 % copper wire is UL rated (E132276-A) for 100 W PoE, meaning it is built to handle that power level without excessive heat under normal conditions.

Do I need a Cat 6 rated patch panel or keystone jack at each end for the 2.5 Gbps and 5 Gbps links to negotiate correctly?

Yes, both ends of the link must use Cat 6 or higher connectors and hardware to achieve the rated Multi-Gigabit speeds of 2.5 Gbps, 5 Gbps and 10 Gbps.
