6ft Cat6a patch cable for wired gaming

This 6ft Cat6a Ethernet cable provides a 10 Gigabit wired link for PS5, Xbox, gaming PCs, routers, switches, NAS units and smart TVs. It replaces Wi-Fi with a stable, low-latency connection that reduces lag, jitter and packet loss. The orange jacket makes it easy to identify in a busy rack or behind a desk. It works with any device that uses an RJ45 port.

500MHz bandwidth and 10GBASE-T support up to 100m

The cable meets the Cat6a standard with 500MHz bandwidth, supporting 10GBASE-T at full speed up to 100 metres. It is backward compatible with Cat6 and Cat5e equipment, so it drops into existing networks without hardware changes. For runs longer than 100 metres or speeds beyond 10 Gigabit, a higher-category cable or fibre would be required.

24AWG bare copper with cross-spline

Four twisted pairs of 24AWG stranded bare copper surround a cross-shaped spline in a 6.9mm jacket to limit crosstalk. The 8P8C RJ45 plugs carry 50-micron gold-plated contacts and snagless moulded boots that protect the locking clip during routing. The unshielded UTP construction suits typical home and office environments but not electrically noisy industrial settings.

Questions about this item

Will this Cat6a cable work with my existing Cat6 and Cat5e patch panels and switches?

Yes, the cable is fully backward compatible with Cat6 and Cat5e equipment, so it drops straight into your current network without any hardware changes.

How can I verify the cable is delivering 10GBASE-T performance after I install it?

Check the link speed in your router, switch or PC network settings; it should negotiate at 10 Gbps when both ends support 10GBASE-T and the run is within 100 m.

Does the 6 ft orange cable include the gold-plated RJ45 connectors and snagless boots, or do I need to buy them separately?

The cable arrives terminated with 8P8C RJ45 connectors that have 50-micron gold-plated contacts and snagless molded strain-relief boots already fitted.
