14 ft Cat6 patch cable

This 14-foot Cat6 Ethernet cable uses 24 AWG stranded copper conductors with gold-plated RJ45 connectors. It is rated for 500 MHz bandwidth and supports Power over Ethernet up to 100W. The yellow PVC jacket carries a CMG fire rating for general-purpose indoor use.

Home and office networks needing reliable gigabit

Suits anyone wiring a router, switch, PC or PoE device within a single room or across a desk. Not for installers who require shielded cable for high-interference environments or plenum-rated jacket for air-handling spaces. Buyers needing longer permanent runs should consider bulk solid-core cable instead.

Check connector clearance

Verify that the snagless boots fit alongside adjacent ports on your switch or patch panel. Confirm the 14-foot length reaches between your two devices without tension. Ensure both endpoints use standard RJ45 sockets wired to the T568B pinout used on this cord.

Questions about this item

What RJ45 ports do I need on my router and PC for this 14 ft Cat6 cable to connect?

Both ends use standard RJ45 male plugs, so any Gigabit Ethernet port on a router, switch or network card will accept the cable directly.

Will this Cat6 patch cord run at full speed if I keep my older Cat5e wall jacks?

The link will negotiate to the lowest category present; Cat5e jacks limit throughput to 1 Gbps even though the cable itself is rated for 10 Gbps up to 160 ft.

How can I verify the cable is delivering 10 Gbps after I plug it in?

Check the connection speed in your OS network adapter settings or run a local throughput test between two 10 Gbps capable devices; a result near 10 Gbps confirms the full Cat6 500 MHz performance.
