3 ft Cat6A UTP patch cable

This three-foot orange patch cable uses unshielded twisted-pair construction with 24 AWG stranded pure copper conductors. RJ45 plugs on both ends feature 50 micron gold-plated contacts and snagless molded boots. The cable is wired to the T568B standard and carries a CM-rated PVC jacket. It suits short runs between switches, routers, servers, printers or workstations in a rack or on a desk.

Sustained 10 Gigabit Ethernet performance

The cable is rated for a minimum frequency of 500 MHz and a 550 MHz bandwidth rating, supporting 10,000Base-T Ethernet across the full 100 meter channel. Crosstalk suppression and the bare copper conductors keep signal integrity stable during continuous high-throughput loads such as large file transfers, backup streams or PoE-powered devices. The UTP design relies on pair geometry rather than shielding to maintain performance over time.

3 ft length limits placement flexibility

At three feet the cable only reaches devices that sit close together, such as adjacent patch-panel ports or a switch and a server in the same rack shelf. Runs that cross racks, traverse cable trays or connect wall outlets to distant equipment will need a longer length. Buyers who need more reach should select a different cable length.

Questions about this item

Does the 24 AWG stranded copper and 500 MHz rating keep the cable cool when it carries PoE power all day?

The 24 AWG stranded pure copper conductors and 500 MHz minimum frequency provide better heat dissipation for PoE applications, reducing temperature rise during continuous use.

What devices must I already have to use this RJ45 Cat6A patch cable?

You need network equipment with RJ45 ports — such as PCs, servers, printers, routers, switches or media players — that support 10Base-T through 10,000Base-T Ethernet.

Will this 3 ft Cat6A cable work reliably with my older Cat5e and Cat6 wall jacks and switches?

Yes, the T568B wiring and RJ45 gold-plated connectors are backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat6 infrastructure, supporting speeds up to 10 Gigabit Ethernet on existing hardware.
