Network cable for short-run connections

Thermals noise and power in normal use

The unshielded PVC jacket handles typical office temperatures without active cooling. Because the cable is passive it draws no power and produces no audible noise during operation.

Bundled accessories and software impact

Both ends terminate in RJ45 plugs fitted with clear boots that protect the latch from snagging. No driver, utility or licence is supplied or required for the cable to function.

Questions about this item

How do I install the RJ45 connectors on this 5 ft Cat 6 cable without damaging the clear boots?

Align the RJ45 plug with the port, push straight in until the clear boot clicks, and avoid twisting the 0.2 in diameter cable during insertion.

What maintenance will the PVC jacket and 24 AWG conductors need over time?

Inspect the yellow PVC jacket for cracks or kinks, and replace the patch cord if the clear boots become loose or the 24 AWG conductors show corrosion.

At what point does the 10 GBps transmission limit appear during sustained use?

The 10 GBps rating holds up to the 5 ft length; beyond that distance or with tighter bends than the 0.2 in diameter allows, signal integrity drops first.
