Cat6 UTP cable for wired networks

This 100 ft Cat6 UTP patch cable connects computers, routers, switches, printers, NAS devices, VoIP phones and PoE equipment on a Gigabit LAN. It uses 24 AWG stranded copper conductors with a pair separator to reduce crosstalk. The flexible PVC jacket makes it practical for home and office installations.

Limits of the Cat6 550 MHz standard

The cable supports data rates up to 550 MHz and carries 10 Gigabit Ethernet, 1000 BASE-T, 100 BASE-T and 10 BASE-T signals. It meets TIA/EIA-568-B-2.1 draft 9 and TIA/EIA 568-C.2 standards. Unshielded construction means it is not intended for environments with heavy electromagnetic interference.

100 ft length decides the reach

At 100 ft the cable spans typical room-to-room or desk-to-rack distances without needing extra couplers. Gold-plated RJ45 connectors with 50 micron plating resist corrosion over repeated insertions. Buyers who need longer runs or shielded cable for noisy industrial settings should look elsewhere.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 100 ft black Cat6 cable or a different length for my office run?

The 100 ft black Cat6 UTP cable with 24 AWG stranded copper and 50 micron gold-plated RJ45 connectors suits runs up to that distance; pick a shorter length only if the path is measurably less.

What does the 550 MHz rating deliver on a real Gigabit LAN?

The 550 MHz bandwidth supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet speeds over the 100 ft run while meeting TIA/EIA 568-C.2, so Gigabit 1000 BASE-T, 100 BASE-T and 10 BASE-T all operate at full rate.

How does the RJ45 interface and Cat6 standard limit PoE use?

Gold-plated RJ45 contacts and bare copper conductors handle PoE devices within the Cat6 550 MHz spec; the unshielded 24 AWG pairs dissipate heat adequately for standard PoE loads.
