20 ft Cat6 patch cable

This 20 ft Cat6 patch cable delivers Multi Gigabit speeds up to 10 Gbps and supports 100 W PoE. It uses 24 AWG stranded 100 % copper conductors rated to 250 MHz. The yellow jacket aids quick identification in dense racks or home offices.

Snagless RJ45 connectors fit tight ports

Each end carries an RJ45 male plug with a snagless boot that protects the latch during frequent moves. The unshielded twisted-pair construction keeps the cable flexible for routing through cable managers or under flooring. No external grounding or drain wire is required.

250 MHz bandwidth sustains 10 Gbps to 160 ft

The UL rated wire (E132276-A) maintains signal integrity over the full 160 ft channel limit for 10 Gbps operation. Stranded conductors resist fatigue from repeated bending better than solid core alternatives. PoE power delivery remains stable during continuous high-throughput transfers.
