20 ft Cat6 Gigabit Patch Cable

This 20 ft Cat6 Ethernet cable provides a wired Gigabit connection for home, office and gaming setups. It uses 24 AWG stranded bare copper conductors in four twisted pairs with gold-plated RJ45 contacts. The clear snagless boot protects the locking clip and resists tangling. Red colour allows easy port identification.

Suits Gigabit and short-run 10G needs.

Buyers who need a reliable drop-in upgrade from Cat5e for routers, switches, consoles or PCs will find this cable fits. The 550 MHz tested bandwidth supports Gigabit Ethernet and 10G over short runs. It is not suited for installations that require shielded cabling or permanent in-wall runs.

Unshielded UTP construction decides fit

The cable is an unshielded twisted-pair design tested to 550 MHz, well above the 250 MHz Cat6 minimum. This specification determines whether it meets the noise-immunity requirements of your environment. RoHS compliant with UL and ETL verification.

Questions about this item

How much clearance does the clear snagless boot add beyond the RJ45 plug?

The transparent snagless boot sits flush over the RJ45 locking clip, adding only a few millimetres so it still fits standard wall plates and switch ports without extra depth.

What is the correct way to seat the 50-micron gold-plated Triplex RJ45 connectors so the locking tab clicks?

Align the connector with the port, press straight in until the tab audibly clicks, then tug gently to confirm the snagless boot has not blocked full insertion.

When should the 24AWG stranded bare copper conductors be replaced in a permanent installation?

Replace the cable if the jacket shows kinks, the boot splits, or connectors develop intermittent contact after repeated unplugging; solid-core cable is preferred for in-wall runs.
