One-foot Cat6 patch cable for short runs

This one-foot Cat6 patch cable uses RJ45 connectors on both ends and is built with 24 AWG stranded copper conductors. It is designed for gigabit and multi-gigabit Ethernet links inside racks, on desks or between nearby devices. The moulded strain relief protects the termination during frequent handling.

Cat6 rating with 500 MHz bandwidth

The cable meets the TIA/EIA-568-B.1-2001 T568B wiring standard and carries a 500 MHz category rating. That specification supports 1, 2.5, 5 and 10 Gbps speeds over short distances up to 160 ft. The four-pair UTP construction keeps crosstalk low for reliable throughput.

UL-rated copper and 100 W PoE support

The 100% copper wires are UL rated under file E132276-A and the assembly is ETL verified. This allows the cable to carry up to 100 W of Power over Ethernet alongside data. No additional software or drivers are required for operation.

Questions about this item

What speeds does the 500 MHz Cat 6 rating actually support on this 1 ft cable?

The cable is rated for multi-gigabit 1, 2.5, 5 and 10 Gbps links up to 160 ft, so the full 10 Gbps is available at this 1 ft length.

How does the TIA/EIA-568-B.1-2001 T568B wiring standard affect compatibility?

T568B is the most common RJ45 pinout, so the cable plugs straight into any standard switch, router, patch panel or network card without crossover adapters.

What physical space does the molded boot need at each end?

The molded strain-relief boot adds a short rigid section behind each RJ45 plug; allow a few centimetres of clearance behind the port so the boot is not bent sharply.
