Cat6 patch cable for Gigabit and Multi-Gig links

This three-foot Category 6 patch cord connects two RJ-45 ports with solid copper conductors inside a purple PVC jacket. It is built for desktop, rack or wall-plate runs where a short, reliable link is needed. The cable carries Power over Ethernet up to 100 W and meets ETL, UL and ANSI/TIA-568-B requirements for commercial installations.

Snagless boots and molded strain relief

Molded connectors feature snagless boots that protect the locking tabs during repeated insertion and removal. The UTP construction uses 24 AWG stranded copper for flexibility in tight cable-management channels. CMG rating allows in-wall routing where local code permits, and the T568B wiring scheme ensures straight-through compatibility with standard network gear.

250 MHz bandwidth supports 10 Gbps up to 160 ft

At this three-foot length the cable comfortably handles 1, 2.5, 5 and 10 Gbps Ethernet without signal degradation. The 250 MHz verified bandwidth leaves headroom for Multi-Gigabit equipment, but runs beyond 160 ft would require a higher-category cable to maintain 10 Gbps performance. Buyers needing longer 10 Gbps segments or shielded pairs for noisy environments should select a different cable type.

Questions about this item

What speeds does the Cat 6 standard on this cable support in practice?

This cable delivers Multi Gigabit 1/2.5/5Gbps and 10Gbps up to 160ft at 250MHz.

What physical space do the connectors need to fit?

Each end has an RJ-45 male plug with a snagless molded boot that protects the latch during insertion and removal.

How is the cable wired and what wiring mistake should be avoided?

It follows the T568B pinout per ANSI/TIA-568-B.1-2001; do not mix T568A and T568B ends on the same run.
