High-Density Cat6 Patch Cable

This 1 ft gray Cat6 Ethernet cable uses a non-booted RJ45 design that fits tightly packed patch panels and keystone jacks. It is built with 24 AWG bare copper conductors in four twisted pairs and 50-micron gold-plated contacts. The cable is tested to 550 MHz, exceeding the Cat6 minimum, and supports Gigabit Ethernet with 10G capability over short runs. It is backward compatible with Cat5e for a direct upgrade in structured cabling.

Ideal for Data Centres and Server Rooms

The slim plug profile suits installers working in high-density racks where airflow and cable management are priorities. It connects routers, switches, patch panels, PCs and PoE devices without the bulk of booted connectors. Buyers who need shielded cable for noisy environments or longer runs for desktop patching should look at alternative types.

Verify Port Spacing and Length Requirements

Confirm that 1 ft provides enough reach between your patch panel ports and switch ports without tension. Check that the non-booted plug clears adjacent connectors in your specific panel layout. Ensure the connected equipment uses standard RJ45 ports compatible with 8P8C wiring. The cable meets RoHS, UL, cUL and ETL listings for compliance.

Questions about this item

What devices need RJ45 ports for this cable to connect?

Routers, switches, patch panels, keystone jacks, PCs and PoE devices with standard RJ45 jacks will accept the 8P8C plugs on this 1ft Cat6 cable.

Will this 550MHz Cat6 cable work with my existing Cat5e patch panel and keystone jacks?

Yes, the cable is fully backward compatible with Cat5e infrastructure, so it drops into your current patch panels and keystones without changes.

How can I verify the cable is performing to its 550MHz rating after installation?

Use a Cat6-qualified cable certifier to confirm the link passes 550MHz bandwidth and Gigabit Ethernet throughput on the installed run.
