5 ft Cat 6 patch cable

This five-foot Cat 6 patch cable connects network devices with RJ-45 male plugs on each end. It uses 24 AWG stranded copper conductors rated for 250 MHz bandwidth and supports Multi-Gigabit speeds up to 10 Gbps at distances up to 160 ft. Gold-plated contacts and a molded snagless boot protect the connection during repeated insertion.

Suited for short desktop or rack links

The 5 ft length works well for linking a workstation to a wall jack or a switch to a patch panel inside the same cabinet. Buyers who need longer runs between rooms or floors should look at something else, as this cable does not reach beyond five feet. Installations requiring shielded cable for noisy environments will also need a different product.

Molded snagless boots and lifetime coverage

Molded strain-relief boots prevent the latch from catching on adjacent cables and reduce stress on the termination point. The cable carries UL rating E132276-A, meets RoHS, REACH and WEEE standards, and is TAA compliant. A lifetime limited warranty from the manufacturer covers defects in materials and workmanship.

Questions about this item

What type of network ports must my devices have to use this Cat 6 cable?

Both devices need an RJ-45 network port; the cable has a male RJ-45 connector on each end.

Will this 5 ft cable support 10 Gbps speeds with my existing Cat 5e patch panel?

Yes, it is rated for 10 Gbps up to 160 ft at 250 MHz, so a short 5 ft run will work with older Cat 5e infrastructure.

How can I verify the cable is delivering the rated 250 MHz performance after installation?

Run a cable certifier or a network tester that reports frequency response up to 250 MHz; a passing result confirms the Cat 6 specification.
