Cable type and fit
This is a six‑foot Cat6 patch cable with RJ‑45 male plugs on both ends, designed for standard Gigabit and multi‑gigabit Ethernet links. Home users, small‑office installers and anyone wiring a router, switch or access point will find the length convenient for desk or rack connections.
Build and daily use
The cord uses 24 AWG stranded 100 % copper conductors rated to 250 MHz and carries UL file E132276‑A, supporting up to 100 W PoE. Snagless boots protect the latch tabs during frequent plugging and unplugging, while the yellow jacket makes the run easy to identify in a crowded panel.
Compatibility check
Verify that your devices have RJ‑45 ports and that six feet reaches between them without strain; longer runs beyond 160 ft may not sustain the highest multi‑gigabit rates. The cable is unshielded UTP, so environments with heavy electromagnetic interference may require a different construction.

Questions about this item
What speeds does this Cat6 cable support and how far can it run at 10 Gbps?
It delivers 1, 2.5, 5 and 10 Gbps; 10 Gbps is supported up to 160 ft.
What connectors and wire gauge does this cable use?
Two RJ-45 male plugs and 24 AWG stranded 100% copper conductors.
How do you avoid damaging the snagless boots when routing the cable?
Push the boot back before inserting the plug, then release it so the latch covers the tab — forcing the boot bends the latch.
