6 ft Yellow Cat6 UTP Patch Cable

This six-foot Cat6 UTP patch cable carries RJ-45 male connectors at both ends for standard Ethernet links. It is built for installers and network administrators who need a short, moulded lead for patch panels, switches or desktop connections. The yellow PVC jacket aids quick visual identification in dense cable runs. Buyers who need longer runs or shielded construction should look elsewhere.

T568B Wiring and 250 MHz Bandwidth

The cable follows the TIA/EIA-568-B.1-2001 T568B wiring standard and is rated to 250 MHz. It supports multi-gigabit speeds of 1, 2.5, 5 and 10 Gbps up to 160 ft, making it suitable for 10GBASE-T within that distance. The 24 AWG stranded 100% copper conductors are UL rated (E132276-A) and the CMG fire rating covers general-purpose indoor use. Performance beyond the stated frequency or distance is not guaranteed by the specification.

Moulded Strain Relief and PoE Support

Moulded boots protect the RJ-45 plugs from snagging and reduce strain on the conductor terminations during insertion and removal. The cable handles up to 100 W Power over Ethernet for devices such as wireless access points or IP cameras. Because the plugs are moulded, they cannot be re-terminated in the field; a damaged connector means replacing the entire lead. The stranded construction remains flexible for routing but is not rated for continuous flexing or outdoor exposure.

Questions about this item

How do I decide between the available lengths and colours?

This cable is a single 6 ft yellow Cat6 UTP patch cord with RJ-45 male connectors on both ends.

What real-world throughput can I expect from the 250 MHz Cat6 rating?

It supports Multi-Gigabit speeds of 1, 2.5, 5 and 10 Gbps at distances up to 160 ft, plus 100 W Power over Ethernet.

Does the TIA/EIA-568-B.1-2001 T568B wiring limit which ports or switches I can use?

The T568B pinout is the universal standard for modern Ethernet gear, so the cable works with any RJ-45 port without crossover adapters.
