High-performance Cat6 patch cable

This 20-foot white Cat6 UTP patch cable uses 100 percent copper conductors for error-free multi-gigabit connections. It supports 1, 2.5 and 5 Gbps speeds with 10 Gbps capability up to 160 feet. The cable is individually tested to comply with ANSI/TIA-568.2-D Category 6 standards and ETL verified for reliable network performance.

Installation requirements and compatibility

Verify that your network equipment uses standard RJ45 connectors and follows the T568B wiring scheme. The 24 AWG stranded copper construction supports up to 100W PoE for devices such as VoIP phones and security cameras. Ensure your pathway can accommodate a 20-foot molded patch cord with a PVC jacket designed for high-density panel connections.

Upgrade scenarios and limitations

This cable replaces older Cat5e or lower-category patch cords when higher bandwidth and reduced crosstalk are needed. The 250 MHz rating and gold-plated connectors provide a measurable jump for multi-gigabit links and PoE deployments. It is not suited for runs exceeding 160 feet at 10 Gbps or for installations requiring shielded cable in high-interference environments.

Questions about this item

Does the 20 ft white Cat6 patch cable include any separate adapters or tools?

The cable is a single 20 ft moulded patch cord with RJ45 plugs on both ends; no adapters or tools are included or required.

Should I choose the 20 ft length or a different length for a 10 Gbps run?

The cable supports 10 Gbps up to 160 ft, so the 20 ft version is well within that limit; select a longer cable only if the physical distance demands it.

What does the 250 MHz rating mean for actual throughput on my network?

The 250 MHz bandwidth supports 1/2.5/5 Gbps and 10 Gbps up to 160 ft, delivering full Category 6 performance for typical desktop and PoE connections.
