1 ft Cat6 patch cord

This one-foot Cat6 patch cord uses 24 AWG stranded copper conductors with gold-plated RJ-45 connectors on each end. The purple PVC jacket is CMG rated for general-purpose indoor use and follows the TIA/EIA-568-B.1-2001 T568B wiring standard. Snagless boots protect the release tabs during frequent moves. It is built for installers and home users who need a short, reliable link.

Snagless design for dense patches

Snagless boots prevent the locking tabs from catching on adjacent cables when routing through crowded panels or tight cable managers. The stranded construction makes the cord flexible enough for patch panels, wall plates or direct device connections without kinking. Unshielded twisted-pair construction keeps the diameter small so it fits cleanly in high-density racks or behind desks.

500 MHz bandwidth with PoE headroom

Rated to 500 MHz, the cable supports multi-gigabit speeds including 10 Gbps up to 160 ft and handles 100 W Power over Ethernet for access points or cameras. The 24 AWG copper meets UL E132276-A safety requirements. It is not intended for outdoor runs, plenum spaces or installations requiring shielded cable.

Questions about this item

How far can the 500 MHz Cat6 rating carry 10 Gbps before the cable becomes the bottleneck?

The cable supports 10 Gbps up to 160 ft, so the 1 ft length is well within that limit.

Does the PVC jacket and 24 AWG stranded copper stay cool when carrying 100 W PoE continuously?

The 24 AWG 100 % copper conductors are rated for 100 W PoE and the CMG-rated PVC jacket handles the heat without degradation.

Will the gold-plated RJ45 connectors fit my existing keystone jacks and switch ports wired to T568B?

Yes, the connectors follow the TIA/EIA-568-B.1-2001 T568B wiring standard used by most keystones and switches.
