15 ft Cat 6 Ethernet cable

This 15 ft Cat 6 patch cord uses 100 percent copper conductors and meets ANSI/TIA-568-2.D Category 6 requirements. It supports 10GbE Multi Gigabit speeds of 1, 2.5, 5 and 10 Gbps up to 55 m. The blue LSZH jacket is PVC-free and produces lower toxic fumes. It is suited for installers and network managers who need a verified Cat 6 link.

Thermals noise and power draw

The cable carries 100W PoE++ without active cooling or added noise. Its 24 AWG stranded copper conductors and 650 MHz rating keep signal loss low during normal operation. The EVA jacket resists heat buildup in dense cable runs. No power supply or fan is involved.

Snagless strain relief and gold pins

Snagless boots protect the RJ45 tabs during repeated connects and disconnects. Integrated strain relief reduces cable stress at the connector. 50-micron gold-plated pins maintain low contact resistance over time. ETL verification confirms the cable meets the stated performance standard.

Questions about this item

How do I install this 15 ft Cat 6 cable without damaging the snagless strain relief?

Align the RJ45 tabs with the port keys, push straight in until the latch clicks, and route the 24 AWG stranded copper cord so the moulded boot is not bent sharply — the snagless hood protects the latch only when the cable runs straight out of the jack.

When will the 50-micron gold-plated contacts need cleaning or the cable replacing?

The 50-micron gold plating resists oxidation for the life of the patch cord; replacement is only needed if the jacket is cut, the boot tears off, or a link test shows errors above the 650 MHz rated bandwidth.

At what length does the 10 Gbps rating drop below the 15 ft spec?

The cable supports 1/2.5/5/10 Gbps up to 55 m, so the 4.6 m (15 ft) length is well within the full 10 Gbps distance limit.
