Cat6 patch cable for 10 Gbps links

This 5 ft Cat6 patch cable is built for installers and network administrators who need reliable Multi Gigabit and 10 Gbps connections up to 160 ft. It uses 24 AWG stranded 100 % copper conductors and gold plated RJ45 contacts to maintain signal quality. The CMG rated PVC jacket meets general purpose fire requirements for in wall or patch panel runs.

Snagless design simplifies dense patch panels

Snagless boots protect the locking tabs during frequent insertions and removals in crowded racks or wall plates. The UTP construction keeps the cable flexible for tight bends without requiring special tools or shielded connectors. T568B wiring ensures compatibility with existing structured cabling plant.

100 W PoE support powers remote devices

The cable is rated for 100 W Power over Ethernet so it can deliver both data and power to access points cameras or VoIP phones without a separate supply. UL listing E132276 A confirms the conductor quality for continuous PoE loads. No additional software or drivers are required for operation.
