Application & Audience

This Cat6 patch cable provides a 50 ft shielded run with RJ45 connectors on each end. It is built for installers and home users who need a reliable drop between a router, switch, patch panel or wall jack and a desktop, server or access point.

Fit & Alternatives

The blue jacket and snagless half-moon boots suit tidy rack or desk routing where cables are moved occasionally. Buyers who need a plenum-rated jacket, a different length, or a solid-core cable for permanent in-wall runs should look at other listings.

Decisive Spec

The cable is rated to 550 MHz and uses 24 AWG stranded bare copper conductors with gold-plated 8P8C contacts, meeting the TIA/EIA-568 standard for Category 6 performance.

Questions about this item

Will this Cat6 550 MHz shielded patch cable work with my older Cat5e router and switch ports?

Yes, the RJ45 connectors are fully backwards compatible with Cat5e and Cat5 equipment, so the 50 ft cable will link at the highest speed both ends support.

How can I verify the 50 ft Cat6 cable is performing at its rated 550 MHz after installation?

Run a cable certifier or a gigabit network tester; a clean pass on the TIA/EIA-568 wire-map and return-loss tests confirms the 550 MHz bandwidth.

Does the 50 ft blue Cat6 cable come with any extra connectors or do I need to buy RJ45 plugs separately?

Both ends already have moulded snagless RJ45 plugs with 50 micron gold-plated pins, so no additional connectors are required.
