Wired Gigabit link for home and office

This 3 ft Cat6 patch cable provides a stable, low-latency wired connection for desktop PCs, gaming consoles, routers, switches and smart TVs. It is built to the Cat6 standard and tested to 550 MHz, well above the 250 MHz minimum, supporting Gigabit Ethernet and 10G over short runs. The stranded 24 AWG bare copper conductors and PE divider maintain signal integrity across the run.

Snagless boot and gold-plated contacts

A PVC molded snagless boot protects the locking clip and resists tangling during installation behind desks or in racks. Each RJ45 plug uses 50-micron gold-plated contacts for corrosion-resistant connectivity. The unshielded twisted-pair design fits standard 8P8C ports on routers, modems, switches, NAS units and PCs without requiring special tooling or grounded jacks.

Drop-in Cat5e replacement

The cable is fully backward compatible with Cat5e infrastructure, making it a direct upgrade for older patch leads without re-terminating wall plates. Builders who need longer runs, shielded construction for noisy environments, or pre-made lengths beyond the C6101 family should select a different specification. It suits anyone replacing a worn Cat5e cord or adding a short, color-coded Gigabit link.

Questions about this item

How far can this 3 ft Cat6 cable reliably carry a 10 Gbps signal?

The cable is tested to 550 MHz and supports 10G over short runs; at 3 ft it is well within the distance where Cat6 can sustain 10 Gbps.

Does the PVC jacket and snagless boot add noticeable heat or bulk when the cable runs all day?

The unshielded 24 AWG stranded copper and thin PVC jacket stay cool and add minimal bulk even during continuous 24/7 use.

What devices must already have RJ45 ports for this cable to work?

Any router, switch, modem, PC, NAS, gaming console or smart TV with a standard 8P8C RJ45 jack will connect directly.
