15 ft Cat6a patch cable for 10 GbE networking
This 15 ft Cat6a Ethernet cable delivers a 10 Gigabit wired link for gaming consoles, PCs, routers and NAS devices. It meets the Cat6a standard at 500 MHz and is fully backward compatible with Cat6 and Cat5e infrastructure. The 24 AWG stranded bare copper conductors are arranged in four twisted pairs around a 6.9 mm cross-spline core to reduce crosstalk. Gold-plated RJ45 contacts and snagless molded boots complete the assembly.
UTP construction drops into existing Cat6
Because the cable is unshielded, it fits standard patch panels, wall plates and keystone jacks without requiring grounded connectors or special bonding. The 15 ft length keeps desk or console runs tidy while leaving slack for routing around furniture. No extra grounding hardware or shielded ports are needed, so it works with the switches, routers and PoE injectors already in place. The snagless boots protect the locking clips during repeated insertion and removal.
Ideal for gamers and home offices needing a stable
Buyers who want a simple drop-in upgrade from Wi-Fi or older copper to 10 GbE will find this cable fits the task. Installers who need shielded cable for high-EMI environments or runs that must meet specific fire ratings should look elsewhere, as this UTP jacket carries only general-purpose UL and ETL verification. The fixed 15 ft length also means it cannot serve longer backbone runs without additional couplers.

Questions about this item
How far can this cable run at 10 Gigabit without signal loss?
The Cat6a standard supports 10GBASE-T up to 100 meters at 500 MHz, so a 15 ft run is well within the rated distance.
Does the 6.9 mm diameter and PVC jacket make the cable stiff or hot during all-day PoE use?
The 24 AWG stranded bare copper conductors and flexible PVC jacket keep the cable pliable for routing; Cat6a handles PoE power levels without noticeable heat rise.
Will the 50-micron gold-plated RJ45 connectors fit my existing Cat6 or Cat5e ports without adapters?
Yes, the 8P8C RJ45 plugs are fully backward compatible with Cat6 and Cat5e jacks, so the cable drops straight into current equipment.
