20 ft Cat6A cable for 10 Gigabit runs

This 20 ft Cat6A patch cable uses four-pair unshielded twisted-pair construction with 24 AWG stranded pure copper conductors. RJ45 plugs at both ends carry 50 micron gold-plated contacts. The CM-rated PVC jacket follows T568B wiring and meets UL, ETL and RoHS compliance.

Practical limit at 100 metres for 10 Gigabit

Cat6A is specified for 10 Gigabit Ethernet up to 100 metres (328 feet). This 20 ft length stays well inside that distance, so the 500 MHz minimum frequency and 550 MHz rating can deliver full bandwidth without the signal loss that appears on longer runs.

Replaces Cat5e when 10 Gigabit is needed

Cat5e cannot reliably carry 10 Gigabit speeds; this Cat6A cable adds crosstalk suppression and better heat dissipation for PoE loads. The jump is worth it when the network gear negotiates 10000Base-T or when future-proofing a 1000Base-T install.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 20 ft red cable or is there another length or colour in this listing?

This listing is for the 20 ft red version only; other lengths or colours would be separate items.

Will the 500 MHz rating actually give me 10 Gigabit speeds on my home router?

Yes, the Cat6A design supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet up to 100 metres, so a 20 ft run will handle the full 10 Gbps rate.

Does the RJ45 connector with 50 micron gold contacts work with standard Gigabit ports?

The RJ45 plugs follow the T568B wiring standard and fit any standard Ethernet port from 10Base-T through 10 Gigabit.
