What this cable does

This Cat6 patch cable connects two RJ45 network ports for data, voice and video distribution. It supports bandwidth-intensive applications up to 550 MHz and meets TIA/EIA-568-B-2.1 draft 9 standards. The snagless boot prevents cable snags during installation and provides strain relief. Bonded pairs maintain twist spacing to the termination point.

Practical limits of Cat6

Cat6 cabling is rated for 550 MHz bandwidth and handles Gigabit Ethernet reliably. Performance beyond that frequency depends on the complete channel including connectors and installation quality. The unshielded design suits typical indoor environments but may be susceptible to electromagnetic interference in dense cable runs. Maximum certified channel length is 100 metres.

Deciding specification

The 5 ft length determines whether this cable reaches between your devices without excess slack. At 1.52 metres it suits short patch connections such as switch-to-panel or device-to-wall outlet. Longer runs require a different length. The white jacket aids colour-coding in multi-cable installations.

Questions about this item

Should I choose this 5 ft Cat6 cable or a longer length for my setup?

This cable is 5 ft (1.52 m) long. Pick a longer version only if the distance between your devices exceeds 5 ft; Cat6 performance up to 550 MHz is maintained at any standard patch-cable length.

What does the 550 MHz rating mean for my actual network speed?

The 550 MHz bandwidth supports Gigabit Ethernet and 10 Gigabit Ethernet up to 55 m, so typical home and office runs at 1 Gbps or 10 Gbps will run at full line rate.

Which connector standard does the RJ45 plug follow and what does it limit?

The RJ45 male plugs meet TIA/EIA-568-B-2.1 draft 9, which caps the channel at 100 m for 1 Gbps and 55 m for 10 Gbps while keeping NEXT and return loss within Cat6 limits.
