Six-foot Cat6 patch cable
This 6 ft purple Cat6 cable carries Gigabit Ethernet and PoE traffic between switches, routers and endpoints. Gold-plated RJ45 connectors and a snagless boot protect the latch during repeated connects. The stranded 24 AWG copper conductors meet 250 MHz bandwidth and CMG fire rating for general-purpose runs.
Home offices and small-business desks
Suits anyone wiring a single device or short rack segment where a pre-terminated patch cord is simpler than bulk cable. Not suited for installers who need custom lengths, plenum-rated jackets or shielded construction for noisy industrial environments.
Plug-and-play with snagless latch
Push each RJ45 until it clicks; the moulded boot stops the tab catching on adjacent ports. Common issue: forcing the connector sideways bends the latch arm, so align straight before pressing. No tools or configuration required.

Questions about this item
What devices need RJ45 ports for this cable to connect them?
Any network device with an RJ45 jack — routers, switches, PCs, NAS boxes, IP cameras or PoE access points — will accept the gold-plated connectors on this Cat6 patch cord.
Will this Cat6 cable slow down a Gigabit switch that I already own?
No — the 250 MHz, 24 AWG stranded copper construction supports 1/2.5/5 Gbps and 10 Gbps up to 160 ft, so a 1 Gbps switch runs at full line rate.
How can I verify the link is running at the expected speed after I plug it in?
Check the port LEDs on the switch or the OS network adapter status; they should show 1 Gbps, 2.5 Gbps, 5 Gbps or 10 Gbps depending on the connected hardware.
