Five-foot Cat 6 cable for short runs

This AddOn cable carries a Cat 6 rating and terminates in RJ45 plugs on both ends. The blue jacket makes it easy to identify in a bundle. It suits home-office desks, patch-panel cross-connects or any gigabit link under five feet.

Unshielded construction handles steady gigabit

Without foil or braid the cable relies on balanced twisted pairs to reject interference. In typical office or residential environments it maintains full gigabit throughput during sustained transfers, provided nearby power cables are not tightly bundled against it.

Check port spacing and bend radius before ordering

The 5 ft length leaves little slack for routing around corners or through tight cable-management channels. Verify that both devices have RJ45 ports with enough clearance for the moulded boots and that the path can accommodate the cable’s minimum bend radius without kinking.

Questions about this item

Does the unshielded Cat 6 cable generate any heat or noise when carrying data all day?

No — it is a passive copper cable with no active components, so it produces zero heat and no audible noise during continuous use.

What devices must already have RJ45 ports for this cable to work?

Both ends need an RJ45 jack — typical examples are a router, switch, modem, PC, NAS, printer or IP camera.

Will the Cat 6 cable limit speeds on older Cat 5e gear I keep?

It runs at the highest speed both linked devices support, so Cat 5e equipment simply operates at its own rated rate.
