What this cable does

This five-foot white Cat6 patch cord uses 24 AWG stranded copper conductors with gold-plated RJ45 connectors on each end. It is rated for 500 MHz bandwidth and carries Gigabit Ethernet with Power over Ethernet up to 100 W. The snagless boots protect the latch during routing and the CMG-rated PVC jacket meets general-purpose fire requirements.

Who should use it and who should not

Home and office users who need a short, reliable drop for a desktop, laptop, printer or access point will find the length and shielding-free design easy to run. Installers requiring shielded cable for noisy environments, plenum-rated jacket for air-handling spaces, or runs longer than five feet should look at other options.

The spec that decides fit

The cable is certified to the TIA/EIA-568-B.1-2001 T568B wiring standard and tested to 250 MHz Category 6 performance, so it supports Multi-Gigabit 2.5 and 5 Gbps links up to 160 ft. If your project demands a different fire rating, shielding or a specific conduit fill number not listed here, this cord will not meet that requirement.
