1 ft Cat6 patch cable

This 1 ft blue unshielded twisted pair cable connects two RJ-45 male ports. It is built to the Category 6 standard with a PVC jacket and copper conductors. The short length suits tight patch-panel runs or desktop links. Compliance is guaranteed not to affect OEM warranties.

Fits standard RJ-45 ports

The cable plugs directly into switches, routers, media converters, hubs or fiber patch panels. Its 1 ft length keeps cable management clean inside racks or on desks. No shielding means it stays flexible for dense bundles. The PVC jacket protects the conductors during repeated re-seating.

For short copper links only

Buyers needing longer runs, shielded cable or fibre optic links should choose a different product. The fixed 1 ft length cannot span floor-to-rack distances. Installations requiring plenum-rated jackets or outdoor-rated materials are not covered by this cable.

Questions about this item

Does the 250 MHz Cat6 rating hold up on a 1 ft patch cable under continuous gigabit traffic?

Cat6 specifies performance up to 250 MHz and the 1 ft length keeps insertion loss well within that limit for sustained gigabit Ethernet use.

Will the unshielded twisted-pair PVC cable generate noticeable heat or noise in a rack running all day?

Passive copper patch cables produce no audible noise and negligible heat regardless of duty cycle.

What network ports must the existing equipment provide for this RJ-45 male-to-male cable to connect?

Both ends need standard RJ-45 female ports — found on switches, routers, patch panels, media converters and network interface cards.
