Ideal for short Gigabit runs

The cable suits anyone who needs a reliable 5 ft red Cat6 link for desktops, laptops, smart TVs, consoles or access points. Colour coding simplifies cable management in racks or behind furniture.

Questions about this item

What bandwidth does the Cat 6 rating support on this 5 ft cable?

The Cat 6 rating supports Gigabit Ethernet speeds on this 5 ft patch cable.

Will the snagless boots on the RJ45 connectors clear a dense patch panel?
