30 ft Yellow Cat6 Patch Cable

This 30 foot Cat6 patch cable provides wired network links for home offices, small business LANs and PoE-powered devices. The snagless RJ45 connectors and flexible PVC jacket simplify routing through tight spaces. Gold-plated contacts resist corrosion for reliable long-term contact.

Cat6 Performance Limits

The cable supports 1 Gbps, 2.5 Gbps, 5 Gbps and 10 Gbps speeds up to 160 ft at a tested 250 MHz bandwidth. Four-pair 24 AWG stranded copper conductors meet TIA/EIA-568-B.1-2001 T568B wiring and CMG fire rating for general-purpose runs. Shielding is not included.

Pre-Order Checks

Verify the 30 ft length reaches between your switch, router or patch panel and the target device without excess slack. Confirm RJ45 ports on both ends accept standard snagless boots. Ensure your installation environment suits an unshielded UTP cable with a CMG-rated PVC jacket.

Questions about this item

Should I choose this 30 ft yellow Cat6 cable or a different length?

This cable is 30 ft long. The manufacturer states it supports Multi Gigabit 1, 2.5, 5 Gbps and 10 Gbps up to 160 ft, so the 30 ft length operates well within the rated distance for all listed speeds.

What does the 10 Gbps headline speed mean for my actual connection?

The cable is rated for 10 Gbps up to 160 ft. At 30 ft you have ample margin. Real-world throughput also depends on your switch, NIC, and PoE load, but the 24 AWG stranded 100 % copper conductors and 250 MHz bandwidth support the full rated speed.

Does the RJ45 T568B wiring standard limit what I can plug this into?

The cable uses TIA/EIA-568-B.1-2001 T568B wiring, which is the common straight-through pinout for patch cords. It connects directly to any standard RJ45 port on switches, routers, PCs, or PoE devices without crossover adapters.
