Six-Inch Shielded Cat6 Patch Cable

This six-inch Cat6 shielded twisted-pair patch cable carries two RJ-45 male connectors. It is built for short, tidy links between a switch, router or patch panel and a nearby device. The black jacket and snagless boots suit rack or desk installations where space is tight.

Verify Port Spacing And Shielding Needs

Measure the gap between the two RJ-45 ports you plan to join; a six-inch lead allows almost no slack. Confirm that both ends require shielded (STP) connectivity and that your patch panel or keystone accepts shielded plugs. No tool or driver installation is involved.

Suits Adjacent Rack Or Desk Links.

Installers linking equipment seated side-by-side in a cabinet or on a bench will find the length ideal. Anyone needing to bridge a wider gap, run cable through trunking or connect rooms should choose a longer cable.

Questions about this item

Does the 6-inch Cat6 STP patch cable arrive ready to use or do I need separate RJ-45 connectors?

The cable has RJ-45 male plugs on both ends so it works straight out of the box; no extra connectors are required.

When should I choose this shielded Cat6 version over an unshielded alternative?

Pick the shielded STP design when the run passes near power cables, fluorescent lights or other sources of electromagnetic interference.

What does the Category 6 rating mean for actual throughput on a gigabit network?

Category 6 supports the full 1 Gbps bandwidth of Gigabit Ethernet with headroom for the 6-inch patch length.
