1 ft Cat6 patch cable for tight runs
This one-foot Cat6 cable provides a short, reliable Gigabit Ethernet link between devices that sit close together. It uses 24 AWG stranded bare copper conductors in four twisted pairs, terminated with RJ45 plugs that have 50-micron gold-plated contacts. The cable is tested to 550 MHz, exceeding the 250 MHz Cat6 baseline. A clear snagless boot protects the locking clip and reduces tangles at the port.
Suits rack patches and desk links.
The 1 ft length works well for patch panels, switch-to-switch links or a console tucked beside a router. Builders who need cables to cross a room, reach a wall jack or span equipment bays should choose a longer assembly. The green jacket helps color-code connections in dense panels, but the fixed length cannot be extended without adding a coupler.
Tested to 550 MHz on the Cat6 standard
The single specification that decides fit is the 550 MHz verified bandwidth, which confirms headroom for Gigabit Ethernet and short-run 10G traffic. This figure comes from the cable’s own test report, not from a generic category minimum. If your installation requires a different verified frequency or a shielded construction, this unshielded UTP model will not meet that requirement.

Questions about this item
Will this 1 ft Cat6 cable work with my older Cat5e router and switch ports?
Yes, the cable is fully backward compatible with Cat5e, so it will connect directly to your existing router, switch, console or PC without any configuration.
How can I confirm the 550 MHz tested cable is delivering Gigabit speeds after I plug it in?
Look at the port LEDs on the router or switch — a solid or blinking green/amber light usually indicates a 1 Gbps link — and run a speed test to verify throughput.
Does the green cable come with the clear snagless boots already fitted, or do I need to buy boots separately?
The clear transparent snagless boots are pre-installed on both RJ45 ends; nothing extra is required for installation.
