6-inch Cat6a patch cable for tight runs

This 6-inch Cat6a Ethernet cable provides a 10 Gigabit wired link using RJ45 connectors on both ends. It is built to the Cat6a standard with 24AWG stranded bare copper conductors and a 500 MHz bandwidth rating. The white jacket and snagless boots keep short connections tidy inside a rack, behind a console or on a crowded desk.

Suits builders needing a very short 10G drop.

Gamers and network technicians who want a stable, low-latency link between a PS5, Xbox, PC or NAS and a nearby switch or router will appreciate the 6-inch length. It is backward compatible with Cat6 and Cat5e hardware. Buyers who need to bridge metres rather than centimetres should choose a longer cable, and installers requiring shielded pairs for noisy environments must select a different construction.

6-inch length decides fit

At exactly 6 inches this cable only reaches devices that sit side by side or stack directly above one another. Measure the gap between your ports before ordering; any greater distance will require a longer patch lead.

Questions about this item

Does the 6 in white Cat6a cable come ready to use or do I need to buy RJ45 connectors separately?

The cable arrives with RJ45 plugs already crimped on both ends, so nothing extra is required for a standard 10 Gigabit link.

When should I choose the 6 in length versus a longer run for my 10GBASE-T setup?

Pick the 6 in patch lead for short, tidy connections between a console, PC or switch and a nearby wall port or router; use a longer cable only when the devices are farther apart.

What does the 500 MHz rating mean for real-world 10 Gbps throughput on this cable?

The 500 MHz bandwidth meets the Cat6a spec for 10GBASE-T up to 100 m, so the 6 in patch cord will carry full 10 Gbps speed with low latency in a typical desktop or console installation.
