25 ft Cat6 patch cable for wired networking

This 25 ft Cat6 Ethernet cable provides a wired Gigabit connection for desktops, consoles, NAS units, smart TVs and office equipment. It uses 24 AWG stranded bare copper conductors in four twisted pairs and terminates in RJ45 plugs with 50-micron gold-plated contacts. The clear snagless boot protects the locking clip and keeps the port area tidy. It is RoHS compliant and UL & ETL verified.

Check router ports and required run length

Verify that your router, switch, modem or device has an available RJ45 port before ordering. Ensure the 25 ft length reaches between the two endpoints without excess slack or tension. The cable is unshielded UTP, so avoid routing it parallel to power cables or fluorescent ballasts. It is backward compatible with Cat5e ports for a direct drop-in upgrade.

Sustained Gigabit throughput with 550 MHz headroom

The cable is tested to 550 MHz, well above the 250 MHz Cat6 minimum, giving margin for continuous Gigabit traffic such as large file transfers, 4K streaming and competitive gaming. Stranded 24 AWG conductors maintain flexibility for repeated re-seating without work-hardening. Gold-plated contacts resist oxidation over long-term use, keeping latency stable under constant load.

Questions about this item

What comes with the cable and is anything else needed?

The box contains the 25 ft Cat6 patch cable with RJ45 plugs on both ends; no extra parts are required for a standard wired connection.

Which version or capacity of this cable should I choose?

This item is a single 25 ft Cat6 UTP cable rated to 550 MHz; select a different length or one of the nine colors from the C6117 family if you need another size or color code.

What does the 550 MHz rating mean for actual network speed?

The 550 MHz test result exceeds the 250 MHz Cat6 minimum and supports Gigabit Ethernet, with 10 Gbps possible over short runs.
