Ideal for short runs

This 1.524 metre Cat6 patch cable connects a PC, laptop or console to a router, switch or wall outlet in home and small-office networks. The grey jacket makes it easy to identify among other cords. It suits anyone needing a reliable, fixed-length link without excess slack.

550 MHz bandwidth decides suitability

The cable is rated for 550 MHz, supporting Gigabit Ethernet and faster standards over copper. Pure bare copper conductors meet UL 444 and TIA-568-C requirements, unlike copper-clad aluminium alternatives. Gold-plated contacts rated at 50 µm resist corrosion for consistent signal integrity.

Snagless boots simplify routing

Flexible 24 AWG stranded wires and colour-matched, snagless strain-relief boots allow the cable to bend around corners and pass through tight cable-management channels without catching. The short-body RJ45 plugs seat firmly in standard ports. No tools are required; just push until the latch clicks.

Questions about this item

What does the 550 MHz bandwidth mean for my connection?

The 550 MHz rating supports full Cat6 performance up to 1 Gbps and allows headroom for 10 Gbps runs within the shorter distance limits of the standard.

How does the RJ45 interface and UTP construction affect what I can plug this into?

The standard RJ45 plugs fit any Gigabit Ethernet port on routers, switches, PCs or NAS devices, while the unshielded twisted-pair design keeps the cable flexible for easy routing.

What physical space do I need for the 1.524 m length and snagless boots?

At 1.524 m the cable reaches between desk and wall jack with slack, and the colour-matched snagless boots prevent the latch from catching on adjacent cables or tight cable-management channels.
