5 ft Cat 6 patch cord

This 5 ft Category 6 patch cord uses 28 AWG stranded copper with gold-plated RJ-45 modular plugs on both ends. The yellow jacket is LSZH rated and carries RoHS compliance. It is built for standard network device connections in office or home environments.

Suited for short desktop runs

The short length and slim 28 AWG construction suit patch-panel-to-switch links or device-to-wall-plate connections where space is tight. Buyers who need longer horizontal runs, in-wall rated cable, or higher gauge conductors for PoE budgets should look at alternative cable types.

Consistent Cat 6 throughput

Stranded conductors and strain-relief boots maintain Category 6 performance during repeated insertion cycles and tight bends. The tangle-free design and identification label simplify cable management in dense patching fields.

Questions about this item

What network devices must I already have to use the RJ-45 connectors on this Cat 6 patch cord?

Any network device with a standard RJ-45 port such as a router, switch, patch panel or network interface card will accept the gold-plated connectors on this cable.

Will the 28 AWG stranded conductors work reliably with older Cat 5e or Cat 5 ports I may keep in my rack?

Yes, the Category 6 patch cord is fully backward compatible and will negotiate the highest common speed with legacy Cat 5e or Cat 5 RJ-45 ports.

How can I verify the cable is delivering Cat 6 performance after I plug it in?

Check the link lights on both connected devices for a gigabit or higher indication and run a cable certifier or network throughput test to confirm Category 6 operation.
