Ready for Multi-Gigabit and PoE

This 8 ft Category 6 patch cable connects a workstation to a wall outlet or patches a hub to a distribution panel. It uses 24 AWG stranded 100 percent copper conductors rated for 250 MHz bandwidth. The cable supports 1, 2.5, 5 and 10 Gbps speeds up to 160 ft and handles 100 W Power over Ethernet.

Sustained throughput on long runs

At the full 160 ft distance the cable maintains 10 Gbps performance without degradation. The 250 MHz rating ensures stable multi-gigabit signalling under continuous load. ETL verification confirms the assembly meets the electrical requirements for consistent operation.

Molded strain relief and UL listed wire

Snagless molded boots protect the RJ45 connectors from latch damage during repeated insertion and removal. The jacket carries UL file number E132276-A, confirming the copper wire meets recognised safety standards. White colour simplifies cable identification in dense patching environments.

Questions about this item

Does the 24 AWG stranded copper construction and ETL verification keep heat and signal loss low during continuous all-day use?

The 24 AWG stranded 100% copper conductors (UL E132276-A) and ETL-verified Cat 6 rating maintain reliable 250 MHz performance with minimal temperature rise during sustained operation.

What devices must I already have to use this cable immediately?

Any two devices with standard RJ45 ports — such as a computer, switch, router, or wall outlet — will connect directly because both ends are pre-terminated with moulded RJ45 plugs.

Will this 8 ft white Cat 6 cable work reliably with my older 10/100 Mbps switch and Cat 5e wall runs?

Yes — the Cat 6 cable is fully backward compatible and will negotiate the highest speed both ends support, so it runs at 10/100 Mbps on legacy gear while retaining 100 W PoE capability.
