Network cable for structured cabling

Monoprice 13406 is a 10 ft Cat6 patch cable built with 24 AWG stranded pure bare copper conductors and a 550 MHz bandwidth rating. The RJ45 connectors use 50 micron gold-plated contacts and a Zeroboot design that removes the protective clip cover for faster insertion in dense panels. It is supplied new and ready for immediate installation.

Suited to installers who want quick patching

The Zeroboot style helps technicians move quickly in crowded racks or wall plates where standard boots snag on adjacent ports. Buyers who need the strain relief and latch protection of a covered boot for frequent unplugging or harsh environments should look at a different cable style.

550 MHz bandwidth over 10 ft

The 550 MHz rating is the single figure that determines whether this cable meets the performance tier required for the intended link. Verify that the category and bandwidth match the network design before purchase.

Questions about this item

Does the 24 AWG stranded copper cable generate noticeable heat or consume extra power when run continuously?

No, a passive Cat6 patch cable draws no power and produces no measurable heat during all-day operation.

What devices must already have RJ45 ports for this 10 ft Cat6 cable to work?

Any two network devices with standard RJ45 jacks — routers, switches, PCs, NAS units or IP cameras — will connect directly.

Will the 550 MHz bandwidth and gold-plated contacts work reliably with older Cat5e or Cat5 equipment still in use?

Yes, the cable is fully backward compatible and will negotiate the highest speed both ends support.
