Wired connectivity for home and office networks

This Cat6 UTP patch cable links computers, routers, switches, NAS devices, VoIP phones and PoE endpoints on a Gigabit LAN. Flexible PVC jacket and injection-moulded boots protect the 24 AWG stranded copper conductors. Pair separator and bare copper reduce crosstalk for a clean signal across the 7 ft run.

Practical limits of Cat6 UTP at 550 MHz

The unshielded design meets TIA/EIA-568-B-2.1 draft 9 and 568-C.2 standards for 550 MHz bandwidth. UTP construction means no external foil or braid, so electromagnetic immunity relies on twist geometry alone. Maximum certified channel length remains 100 m; this 7 ft segment fits well within that limit for 1000 BASE-T, 100 BASE-T and 10 BASE-T.

Gold-plated RJ45 contacts decide long-term

Connectors use 50 micron gold plating to resist oxidation and maintain low contact resistance over repeated insertions. Solid copper pins mate with standard keystone jacks and switch ports without signal degradation. If the installation demands shielded cable or a different length, this part will not match that requirement.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 7 ft black cable or a different length for my desk-to-router run?

This model is only offered in a 7 ft length with a black PVC jacket. If your router sits farther away, measure the path and add slack for bends; otherwise the 7 ft span fits most desk-to-router or patch-panel-to-switch links.

What does the 550 MHz rating actually deliver when the cable is plugged into my gigabit switch?

The 550 MHz bandwidth headroom lets the four 24 AWG stranded pairs carry 1000 BASE-T, 100 BASE-T and 10 BASE-T with lower crosstalk and return loss than basic 100 MHz wire, so gigabit speeds stay stable over the full 7 ft.

Are the RJ45 plugs standard TIA/EIA 568 pinout and will they snap into any gigabit port?

Yes, each end uses a 50 micron gold-plated RJ45 wired to TIA/EIA 568-C.2, so the cable mates with every 10/100/1000 BASE-T port on PCs, routers, switches, NAS, VoIP phones and PoE devices.
