Cable Leader 6in Cat6a Ethernet Cable Black 24AWG 500MHz 10 Gigabit

Compact Cat6a patch cable for tight spaces

This six-inch Cat6a patch cable is built for short runs between a router, switch or console and a nearby device. Its 24 AWG stranded bare copper conductors and snagless moulded boots make it easy to route behind a desk, inside a rack or alongside a PS5 or Xbox without excess slack. Backward compatibility with Cat6 and Cat5e means it drops into existing networks without reconfiguration.

500 MHz bandwidth enables 10 Gbps over 100 metres

The cable meets the Cat6a standard with a 500 MHz rating, so it carries 10GBASE-T traffic at full speed across the maximum 100 metre channel length. Four twisted pairs around a cross-spline core keep crosstalk low, while 50-micron gold-plated RJ45 contacts maintain reliable signal integrity on every connection.

Passive design runs cool and silent

With no active components the cable draws no power and generates no heat or noise in normal use. The 6.9 mm PVC jacket resists tangling and protects the conductors during repeated plugging and unplugging. Builders who need shielded cable for high-EMI environments or longer pre-made lengths should look elsewhere.
