Cat6 extension cable for longer runs

This 16-foot shielded Cat6 cable extends an existing Ethernet link between a router and a device such as a PC, console or streamer. Gold-plated RJ45 male-to-female connectors protect the host port from repeated plugging and unplugging. The stranded copper conductors meet the TIA/EIA 568-C.2 Category 6 standard and support up to 550 MHz bandwidth.

Fits between any RJ45 port and a patch cord

The female end accepts a standard Cat6 patch cable while the male end plugs into a switch, router, server, printer, NAS, VoIP phone or PoE device. Backward compatibility with Cat5 and Cat5e cables lets it work with older wiring without extra adapters. Shielding with aluminum mylar foil and tinned copper braid reduces interference in busy network racks.

Replaces short factory cables or worn patch leads

When a stock cable is too short to reach a relocated router or wall jack, this extension adds reach without a new permanent run. It is not for builders who need in-wall rated solid-core cable or lengths beyond 16 feet. The jump is worth it when the existing link is Cat6 or below and the port needs strain relief.
