4 ft Cat6 Patch Cable

This four-foot Cat6 patch cable provides a short, snagless link between two RJ45 ports. The gray PVC jacket and gold-plated contacts suit desk or rack runs where a compact cable keeps routing tidy. It is built for installers and home users who need a reliable drop under one metre.

Length and Speed Limits

The cable is rated to carry 10 Gbps up to 160 ft and supports 1, 2.5 and 5 Gbps links at the same distance. Its 250 MHz bandwidth and CMG fire rating define the practical ceiling for horizontal runs in general-purpose spaces. PoE loads up to 100 W are supported within the same length envelope.

24 AWG Stranded Copper Conductors

Four pairs of 24 AWG stranded 100 % copper wire give the flexibility needed for patch-panel and switch-port density. The UL-listed construction (E132276-A) confirms the conductor quality that determines whether the cord meets Cat6 performance in tight bends. Buyers who need solid-core cable for permanent in-wall runs cannot use this stranded patch cord.
