  • TypeSnag-less
  • Cat6
  • Connector A1 - RJ45 Male
  • Connector B1 - RJ45 Male
  • Length99.97 ft. (30.48 m)
  • ColorRed
  • Supports 10 Gbps networking up to 160 ft with 250 MHz bandwidth
  • Snagless molded connectors prevent latch damage during frequent plugging and unplugging

  • Red jacket colour simplifies cable identification in dense rack installations
  • ETL verified construction tested for minimal Near End Crosstalk performance

Ready for multi-gigabit runs

This 99.97 ft Cat6 UTP patch cable uses 24 AWG stranded copper conductors rated for 250 MHz bandwidth. Snagless RJ45 connectors with molded strain relief protect the latch during pulls through conduit or cable trays. The red jacket aids visual identification in dense patch panels. It supports Power over Ethernet loads up to 100W for access points or cameras.

Length defines the 10Gbps ceiling

The cable delivers 1, 2.5 and 5 Gbps across the full 99.97 ft run. For 10 Gbps the practical limit is 160 ft, so this length stays within specification. ETL verification and UL rated wire (E132276-A) confirm the construction meets the Category 6 electrical requirements for crosstalk and return loss.

Replaces shorter or lower-category links

Installers upgrading from Cat5e drops that cannot sustain multi-gigabit speeds will gain headroom for 2.5 and 5 Gbps switches. The jump is worth it when existing patch cords limit throughput or when PoE devices need the 100W capacity. Buyers needing shielded cable for high-EMI environments or runs beyond 160 ft at 10 Gbps should look elsewhere.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 99.97 ft red Cat6 cable or a different length for my run?

The 99.97 ft (30.48 m) length suits runs up to 100 ft; for shorter or longer distances select a different cable length to avoid excess slack or signal loss.

What does the 250 MHz rating mean for actual throughput in my network?

The 250 MHz bandwidth supports multi-gigabit speeds of 1, 2.5, 5 and 10 Gbps up to 160 ft, so the full 99.97 ft run can carry 10 Gbps traffic.

How does the UTP Cat6 interface limit power delivery and data speed?

The unshielded Cat6 RJ45 connectors handle up to 100 W PoE and 10 Gbps at 250 MHz, with the 24 AWG stranded copper conductors setting the practical ceiling.
