Cat 6 Shielded Patch Cable 300 ft

This QualGear Category 6 Ethernet cable runs three hundred feet with foil shielding and gold-plated RJ45 connectors on each end. It is rated for one gigabit per second at two hundred fifty megahertz and carries a black jacket suitable for indoor routing.

Suited for long indoor runs needing EMI protection

Installers who need a single three-hundred-foot shielded link for gigabit networking will find the length and shielding match the spec. Buyers who require plenum-rated jackets, outdoor burial ratings, or multi-gigabit bandwidth should look at cables built to those standards.

Fits structured cabling with standard RJ45 ports

The cable terminates in standard RJ45 plugs that seat in any gigabit switch, router, patch panel or wall jack without adapters. Its shielding reduces crosstalk in crowded cable trays, freeing the installer from adding external ferrites or separate ground wires.

Questions about this item

Does the 300 ft run need a gigabit router and gigabit network cards at both ends to reach the rated speed?

Yes, the cable supports up to 1 Gbps at 250 MHz, but the link will negotiate to the lowest common speed of the connected router, switch and network adapters.

Can I mix this shielded Cat 6 cable with older unshielded Cat 5e patch cords in the same network without issues?

Yes, Cat 6 is backward compatible with Cat 5e; the shielded cable will simply operate at the lower category's performance where the older cords are used.

How can I verify the 300 ft installation is performing correctly after I plug it in?

Run a speed test between two devices connected through the cable; sustained throughput near 1 Gbps and no CRC errors on the switch ports confirm it is working as intended.
