Cable Leader Cat6a Ethernet Cable 2ft Blue 24AWG 500MHz 10GBASE-T

2ft Cat6a patch cable for 10GBASE-T networks

This 2ft Cat6a Ethernet cable provides a 10 Gigabit wired link for gaming consoles, PCs, routers and NAS devices. It uses 24AWG stranded bare copper conductors in a four-pair cross-spline layout with a 6.9mm outer diameter. Gold-plated RJ45 contacts at 50-micron thickness and snagless molded boots protect the locking clip during routing. The blue UTP jacket suits tidy desk or rack connections.

Drop-in upgrade from Cat6 or Cat5e infrastructure

The cable meets the Cat6a standard at 500MHz and carries 10GBASE-T traffic up to 100 metres, so it replaces older patch leads without changing switches, routers or wall plates. Backward compatibility means existing Cat6 and Cat5e segments stay in place while the upgraded run handles the higher bandwidth. Low latency and reduced crosstalk make the jump worthwhile when wired stability beats wireless for competitive gaming or large file transfers.

Suits short runs between nearby gear.

Builders wiring a PS5, Xbox or PC to a router or switch on the same desk benefit from the short length and snagless boots. Installers needing runs beyond a few metres should choose a longer cable from the same series. Users requiring shielded construction for noisy electrical environments or outdoor-rated jackets must select a different cable type.
