Wired 10 Gigabit connection for gaming

This 4ft Cat6a patch cable delivers a 10GBASE-T link at 500MHz for PS5, Xbox, gaming PCs, routers, switches and NAS devices. The 24AWG stranded bare copper conductors with a cross-spline core reduce crosstalk, while 50-micron gold-plated RJ45 contacts and snagless boots ensure reliable signal integrity. It drops straight into existing Cat6 and Cat5e networks without equipment changes. RoHS compliant and UL & ETL Verified.

Practical limit of the Cat6a standard at 100 metres

The Cat6a specification guarantees 10GBASE-T performance up to 100 metres at 500MHz. This 4ft length is well within that range, so attenuation and crosstalk remain negligible. For runs beyond 100 metres the standard does not assure 10 Gigabit speeds, and a different media type or active equipment would be required.

Unshielded UTP construction suits typical indoor

This cable uses unshielded twisted pairs (UTP) with a 6.9mm outer diameter. It is appropriate for home, office and gaming setups where electromagnetic interference is low. Installations near heavy electrical equipment, industrial machinery or long parallel runs with power cables may require shielded cable instead.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 4ft length or a longer one?

The 4ft cable keeps a desk or console setup tidy; choose a longer length only if the run between devices exceeds four feet.

What does the 500MHz rating deliver in my system?

It supports 10GBASE-T at 10 Gigabit speeds up to 100 meters, so a 4ft run will carry full 10GbE throughput with margin.

Is the RJ45 connector standard for Cat6a and what does it cap?

The 8P8C RJ45 plugs with 50-micron gold contacts are the Cat6a standard and cap the link at 10GBASE-T performance.
