50 ft Cat 6 patch cable

This 50 ft Cat 6 patch cable provides a wired Ethernet link for desktops, switches, routers and PoE devices. Blue PVC jacket and snagless RJ-45 plugs make routing through cable managers simple. It is built with 24 AWG stranded 100% copper conductors and carries UL rating E132276-A for safety compliance.

250 MHz bandwidth and 10 Gbps headroom

The cable supports 250 MHz bandwidth and Multi-Gigabit speeds of 1, 2.5, 5 and 10 Gbps up to 160 ft, so the 50 ft length operates well within its certified headroom. It also delivers up to 100 W Power over Ethernet for access points, cameras or VoIP phones. Beyond 160 ft the 10 Gbps rating no longer applies and signal margin decreases.

Snagless RJ-45 ends for dense patches

Snagless boots protect the release tabs when pulling the cable through crowded patch panels or tight conduit bends. Stranded conductors keep the cord flexible for repeated re-seating without work-hardening. The 50 ft reach suits cross-room runs but is not suited for permanent in-wall installations that require solid-core riser or plenum rated cable.

Questions about this item

Will the 50 ft Cat 6 cable work with my existing 100 Mbps switch and older laptop ports?

Yes, the Cat 6 cable is backward compatible and will negotiate the highest speed both devices support, up to 1 Gbps on older 10/100 equipment.

How can I verify the cable is delivering the rated 250 MHz bandwidth after I plug it in?

Run a cable certifier or use a laptop with a 2.5 Gbps or 5 Gbps NIC to confirm link speed; the cable supports up to 10 Gbps at this length.

Does the box include the snagless RJ-45 connectors already attached, or do I need to buy plugs and a crimper separately?

Both ends come factory-terminated with snagless RJ-45 male connectors; no additional plugs or tools are required.
