Three-foot Cat6 patch cable

This orange Category 6 patch cable measures 0.9144 metres and uses 24 AWG stranded pure bare copper conductors. It is built for short-run connections between a computer, switch, router or wall plate in home and office networks. The 50 µm gold-plated RJ45 contacts and colour-matched snagless boots help maintain reliable contact during frequent moves.

550 MHz bandwidth under sustained load

The cable is rated for 550 MHz bandwidth, supporting Gigabit Ethernet and higher data rates over its full length. Unshielded twisted-pair construction keeps crosstalk low enough for continuous streaming, large file transfers and latency-sensitive applications without the signal degradation seen on lower-specification cords.

Pure copper compliance limits

UL Code 444 and TIA-568-C require pure bare copper for in-wall and plenum-rated communications wiring; this cable meets those standards, so it can be used where copper-clad aluminium is prohibited. The 24 AWG stranded design remains flexible for patch-panel work but is not intended for long horizontal runs that exceed the 100 metre channel limit defined by the same standards.

Questions about this item

Does the 0.9144 m Cat6 cable generate noticeable heat or draw extra power during continuous all-day use?

A passive copper cable produces no heat of its own and draws no power; only the connected ports consume electricity.

What equipment must I already have for this RJ45 patch cord to work?

Two devices with standard RJ45 Ethernet ports — such as a router, switch, PC or NAS — are all that is required.

Will this 550 MHz Cat6 cable work reliably with my older Cat5e wall jacks and 100 Mbps switch?

Yes, the Cat6 cable is fully backward compatible and will negotiate the highest speed both ends support.
