  • Overall length2 ft (0.61 m)
  • 10 Gbps wired speed at 500 MHz bandwidth
  • 24 AWG stranded bare copper with cross-spline core
  • 50-micron gold RJ45 contacts resist corrosion
  • Snagless molded boots protect the locking clip
  • Backward compatible with Cat6 and Cat5e networks

range 10 Gigabit link

This 2 ft Cat6a patch cable provides a 10 Gigabit wired connection for gaming consoles, PCs, routers and NAS devices. It is built to the Cat6a standard with 500 MHz bandwidth and supports 10GBASE-T up to 100 m. The green jacket makes it easy to identify in a crowded rack or desk setup.

24 AWG stranded copper with snagless boots

Four twisted pairs wrap a 6.9 mm cross-spline core to reduce crosstalk, and 50-micron gold-plated RJ45 contacts resist corrosion. The snagless molded boots protect the locking clips during frequent moves and prevent the cable from catching on other wires. It is unshielded UTP, RoHS compliant and UL & ETL Verified.

Drop-in upgrade from Cat5e or Cat6

The cable is fully backward compatible, so it replaces older patch cords without changing switches, routers or network cards. The jump is worth it when you need 10 Gigabit throughput on short runs between a console and a router or inside a server rack. It is not for installers who need shielded cable for high-EMI environments or runs longer than the 2 ft length provided.

Questions about this item

What speed does the Cat6a 500MHz rating actually deliver?

The Cat6a standard supports 10GBASE-T up to 100 meters at 500MHz, so this cable handles 10 Gigabit Ethernet at full spec distance.

Will the 6.9mm diameter and snagless boot fit my patch panel?

The 6.9mm outer diameter with 4-pair cross-spline core and snagless molded boot fits standard RJ45 keystones and switch ports without blocking adjacent jacks.

Do I need to wire the 24AWG stranded copper differently for PoE?

No special wiring is required; the 24AWG stranded bare copper conductors with 50-micron gold-plated contacts carry PoE power and data through standard RJ45 pinout.
