Hubbell Incorporated HC6BK10 Cat 6 Ethernet Cable Black 10 ft

Cat 6 Patch Cord for Voice and Data

This 10 ft round patch cord uses 24 AWG conductors and RJ45 connectors on both ends. It is built to Category 6 performance and carries a CM fire rating for commercial installations. The black PVC jacket measures 0.2 in diameter and meets ANSI/TIA/EIA-568-C.2 and ISO 11801/60603-7-41 standards.

Practical Limits of the Cat 6 Standard

The cable supports transmission speeds up to 10 GBps over its rated length. As an unshielded design, it is intended for environments where electromagnetic interference is low. It complies with EU RoHS requirements and NEC Article 800 for communications circuits. Installers should observe the standard's maximum channel length guidelines for the target application.

Clear Boots and PVC Construction

Each end features a clear boot that protects the RJ45 latch during repeated insertion and removal. The PVC jacket and insulation resist wear in typical office or rack settings. The unshielded construction keeps the cable flexible for routing through cable managers or around corners. Buyers who need shielded pairs for noisy industrial areas should select a different cable type.
