What this cable does

The Cables To Go 27172 is a Cat6 patch cable built for voice, data and video distribution. It meets TIA/EIA-568-B-2.1 draft 9 standards and supports bandwidth-intensive applications up to 550MHz. Bonded pair construction keeps twist-spacing consistent to the termination point. A shortened body plug and moulded snagless boot reduce Near-End Crosstalk and prevent snags during installation.

Who should use it

Installers who need a 7 ft green cable for colour-coded network runs will find the length and jacket colour convenient. The snagless boot helps in dense patch panels or tight wall outlets where cables are routed close together. Buyers who require shielded cable for high-interference environments or runs longer than the supplied length should look at other options.

Installing the cable

Both ends carry RJ45 male connectors that snap into standard Ethernet ports without tools. The snagless boot protects the locking tab when pulling through conduit or cable managers. The only common issue is exceeding the recommended channel length for Cat6 performance, which can introduce errors on high-speed links.

Questions about this item

What devices do I need with RJ45 ports to use this Cat6 patch cable?

Any network equipment with standard RJ45 jacks — routers, switches, PCs, NAS units, IP cameras or VoIP phones — will accept the male connectors on both ends of this 7 ft cable.

Will this Cat6 cable work properly if the rest of my cabling is older Cat5e?

Yes, it is fully backward compatible; the link will simply negotiate at the highest speed both ends support, so Cat5e segments will run at their rated 1 Gbps while this cable is capable of 550 MHz bandwidth.

How can I confirm the cable is performing to its 550 MHz rating after installation?

Verify the link lights show a gigabit connection, then run a local throughput test between two wired endpoints; sustained speeds near 1 Gbps indicate the bonded-pair construction and snagless boots are maintaining low NEXT and return loss.
