Wired 10 Gigabit connection for consoles and PCs

This Cat6a patch cable delivers a 10 Gigabit wired link for PS5, Xbox, gaming PCs, routers, switches and NAS devices. The three-foot length keeps desk and console setups tidy while eliminating the lag, jitter and packet loss common with Wi-Fi. It drops straight into existing Cat6 or Cat5e infrastructure with no equipment changes required.

Cat6a 500MHz rating enables 10GBASE-T over 100m

The cable meets the Cat6a standard at 500MHz, supporting 10GBASE-T speeds up to 100 metres. Four twisted pairs around a cross-shaped spline reduce crosstalk, and 24AWG stranded bare copper conductors maintain signal integrity. Gold-plated RJ45 contacts at 50-micron thickness ensure reliable conductivity across every connection.

Snagless boots simplify routing through tight spaces

Molded PVC strain-relief boots protect the locking clips from snapping during installation and prevent tangling when the cable is pulled through cable management channels. The 6.9mm outer diameter fits standard patch panels and keystone jacks without forcing. No special tools are needed beyond a gentle push until the clip clicks.

Questions about this item

What does the 500 MHz rating mean for a 3 ft cable in my PC?

The 500 MHz bandwidth supports 10GBASE-T speeds across the full 100 m Cat6a channel, so a 3 ft patch cord adds virtually no loss and keeps the link at its rated 10 Gbps.

How does the RJ45 connector and Cat6a standard limit real-world speed?

The 8P8C RJ45 plugs and Cat6a rating cap the link at 10 Gbps over 100 m; you will not exceed 10 Gbps even with faster switch ports.

Will the 6.9 mm diameter and snagless boot fit tight switch ports?

The 6.9 mm outer diameter and low-profile snagless boot are built to standard RJ45 spacing, so they seat cleanly in dense patch panels and console ports.
