25-foot Cat6 patch cable

This 25-foot Cat6 Ethernet cable uses 24AWG stranded pure bare copper conductors with 50-micron gold-plated RJ45 contacts. It is built for wired network connections in home or office environments where a reliable physical link is required. The blue jacket and snagless strain-relief boots simplify cable management and protect the connector tabs during installation.

550 MHz bandwidth headroom

The 550 MHz bandwidth specification supports Gigabit Ethernet and 10 Gigabit Ethernet over shorter runs, providing headroom for high-throughput local traffic. At the full 25-foot length the cable remains within Cat6 channel limits, but 10 GbE performance will degrade beyond the standard 55-metre channel distance. For longer permanent links a solid-core installation cable is the appropriate choice.

Pure bare copper conductor

The conductors are 100 percent pure bare copper rather than copper-clad aluminium, meeting UL 444 and TIA-568-C fire and safety requirements for communications wiring. This construction ensures lower resistance and better PoE performance than CCA alternatives. Buyers who need a cable rated for in-wall plenum or riser spaces should select a cable with the corresponding jacket rating.

Questions about this item

Will the 24AWG stranded pure bare copper conductors and RJ45 plugs work with my older Cat5e switch and router ports?

Yes, the Cat6 cable is backward compatible with Cat5e equipment, so the 24AWG stranded pure bare copper conductors and RJ45 plugs will connect and function normally with your existing switch and router ports.

How can I verify the 550MHz bandwidth and 50µm gold-plated contacts are performing correctly after installation?

Use a cable certifier or network tester that measures Cat6 parameters up to 550MHz; a passing result confirms the bandwidth and the 50µm gold-plated contacts are making proper connection.

Does the 25-foot blue cable include the snagless strain-relief boots, or do I need to buy them separately?

The cable ships with colour-matched snagless strain-relief boots already fitted, so nothing extra is required for the boots.
