Wired Gaming Link

A six-foot Cat6a patch cable built with 24AWG stranded bare copper and 50-micron gold-plated RJ45 contacts. It delivers 10GBASE-T performance at 500MHz for PS5, Xbox or gaming PC users who need a stable, low-latency connection that outperforms typical Wi-Fi. The red jacket makes it easy to spot in a crowded rack or behind a desk.

Drop-In Network Upgrade

The cable plugs straight into any RJ45 port on routers, modems, switches, PoE injectors, NAS units, smart TVs or patch panels without configuration. Backward compatibility with Cat6 and Cat5e means it works with existing infrastructure, while the snagless molded boot protects the locking clip during routing through tight cable-management channels.

Sustained Signal Integrity

A 4-pair cross-spline core with a 6.9mm outer diameter keeps crosstalk low over the full 100-metre 10GBASE-T distance, so throughput stays consistent during long gaming sessions or large file transfers. UL and ETL verification plus RoHS compliance confirm the materials meet recognised safety and environmental standards for permanent installation.

Questions about this item

Does the 500 MHz bandwidth hold up on a 100 metre run?

Yes — the Cat6a specification guarantees 10GBASE-T performance up to 100 metres at 500 MHz.

Does the PVC jacket or the 6.9 mm diameter make the cable warm or noisy when it carries 10 Gbps all day?

No — it is a passive copper cable with no active components, so it generates no heat and makes no noise regardless of data rate.

Will the gold-plated RJ45 plugs click straight into my router and PS5 ports?

Yes — both ends use standard 8P8C RJ45 connectors that fit any Gigabit or 10 Gigabit Ethernet port on routers, consoles, PCs or switches.
