12 ft Cat 6 Ethernet Cable

This 12-foot gray Cat 6 patch cable uses 24 AWG stranded copper conductors with gold-plated RJ-45 connectors. It is rated for 250 MHz bandwidth and supports multi-gigabit speeds up to 10 Gbps over shorter runs. Snagless boots protect the clips during installation. The CMG-rated PVC jacket meets general-purpose fire safety standards.

Suits standard desktop and docking links

Builders who need shielded cable for high-interference environments should look elsewhere. Installers requiring plenum-rated or riser-rated jackets for in-wall runs cannot use this CMG-rated cord. Users needing lengths beyond 12 feet must select a different size. The unshielded design does not suit applications demanding foil or braid screening.

250 MHz Cat 6 bandwidth rating

The cable is tested to 250 MHz, meeting the TIA/EIA-568-B.1-2001 T568B wiring standard for Category 6 performance. This rating determines support for 1/2.5/5/10 Gbps Ethernet up to 160 feet. Gold-plated contacts and 100 percent copper conductors maintain signal integrity. Snagless molded boots add strain relief for durable connections.

Questions about this item

Will the 12 ft length and RJ-45 connectors reach my wall jack and laptop docking station?

The cable measures 12 ft with RJ-45 male connectors on both ends, suitable for connecting a wall jack to a laptop docking station or desktop computer.

How do I avoid breaking the clips when routing the cable through tight spaces?

Snagless molded boots protect the RJ-45 clips from catching or snapping during installation; run the cable gently and avoid sharp bends at the connector ends.

When should I replace this cable to maintain 10 Gbps performance?

Replace it if the jacket shows cracks, the boots split, or connectors become loose — damage can degrade the 500 MHz Cat6 rating needed for 10 Gbps up to 160 ft.
