  • Product typeNetwork Ethernet Cables
  • Supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet speeds up to 100 metres
  • 550 MHz bandwidth rating enables high data transfer rates
  • 50 micron gold-plated RJ45 contacts resist corrosion for reliable connections
  • 24 AWG stranded pure copper conductors ensure flexible, low-loss signal paths
  • CM-rated PVC jacket meets flame-retardant safety standards for in-wall use

Ideal for short patch runs

This 2 ft red Cat6A patch cord is built for 10 Gigabit Ethernet links up to 100 meters. It suits installers and home users who need a short, reliable connection between a switch, router, or wall jack and a nearby device. The T568B wiring ensures broad compatibility with existing network gear.

Stranded copper with gold contacts

Four twisted pairs of 24 AWG stranded pure copper give the cable flexibility for tight bends behind desks or inside racks. RJ45 plugs on both ends carry 50 micron gold-plated contacts that resist corrosion over repeated insertions. The CM-rated PVC jacket meets in-wall fire codes for permanent installations.

Replaces Cat5e or Cat6 links

Upgrading from older categories removes the 1 Gigabit bottleneck and supports 10,000Base-T speeds at a minimum 500 MHz frequency. The jump is worth it when PoE devices demand better heat dissipation or when crosstalk suppression is needed for clean 10 Gigabit signals. It does not serve runs longer than 100 meters or shielded environments.

Questions about this item

Does the Cat6A rating and 500 MHz bandwidth cap at 10 Gbps over this 2 ft length?

Yes, Cat6A with 500 MHz minimum frequency supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet up to 100 metres; the 2 ft patch cord stays well within that limit.

What physical space do the RJ45 plugs with moulded boots need behind a patch panel port?

The booted RJ45 plugs require enough rear clearance for the boot to seat fully; allow space so the cable does not bend sharply at the connector.

Is the T568B wiring pre-terminated on both ends, or must I re-punch the connectors?

Both ends come factory-terminated to the T568B standard; simply plug the RJ45 connectors into the jacks — no re-termination needed.
