Green Cat 6 Patch Cable – 4 ft

This green Category 6 patch cable measures four feet and is built with 24 AWG stranded copper conductors. It is rated for 250 MHz bandwidth and supports Multi-Gigabit speeds of 1, 2.5, 5 and 10 Gbps up to 160 ft. The cable carries UL listing E132276-A and ETL verification.

Suited for short PoE runs and crossover links

Network technicians who need a short, factory-terminated crossover lead for direct device-to-device links or for PoE endpoints drawing up to 100 W will find the length and rating convenient. Installers requiring longer horizontal runs, different colour coding or straight-through pinouts should select another cable.

Crossover pinout decides fit

The single specification that determines whether this is the correct part is the crossover cable configuration; it only suits connections that demand crossed transmit and receive pairs.

Questions about this item

Does the crossover wiring mean I need a regular straight-through cable for my router and switch ports?

Yes, the C6PATCH4GN is a crossover cable intended for direct device-to-device links; standard router and switch ports require a straight-through patch cable.

Will this Cat 6 cable work properly if I keep my older Cat 5e patch panel and wall jacks?

The cable meets Cat 6 specifications at 250 MHz and 24 AWG, so it will operate at Cat 5e speeds when connected to legacy Cat 5e components.

How can I confirm the cable is delivering the rated 10 Gbps performance after installation?

Run a link test or transfer a large file between two 10 Gbps-capable NICs; sustained throughput near 10 Gbps indicates the 250 MHz, 24 AWG stranded copper link is performing to spec.
