Ideal for high-density networking

This two-foot Category 6 patch cable connects computers, servers, routers, switches, modems, hubs and network adapters in tight rack environments. The orange jacket allows quick visual identification among dense cable runs. It is built for 10, 100 and 1000 Base-T Ethernet as well as 100 Mbps TP-PMD, 155 Mbps ATM, ISDN, voice and Token Ring Type 3 applications. The UTP construction supports frequencies up to 550 MHz.

Passive cable thermals and noise

As a passive copper assembly, the cable generates no heat and produces no audible noise during operation. Power draw is zero because no active electronics are present. Molded snagless boots protect the RJ-45 locking tabs from damage during repeated insertion and removal. This mechanical durability helps maintain consistent signal integrity over the link lifetime.

Two-foot fixed length constraint

The 2 ft length suits only side-by-side or adjacent-port connections within the same rack shelf. Installations that require longer runs between racks, across rooms or through conduit need a different cable. Buyers who need more reach should select a longer model.

Questions about this item

How do I install the snagless boots on this 2 ft Cat6 cable without damaging the locking tabs?

Align the RJ-45 male connectors with the ports on your router, switch or server and press straight in until the tabs click; the molded snagless boots protect the tabs from catching during insertion or removal in high-density racks.

What maintenance or replacement will this orange Cat6 patch cable need over time?

Inspect the RJ-45 connectors and snagless boots periodically for wear or cracking; replace the cable if the boots split or the locking tabs no longer hold securely in the port.

What is the first performance limit I will hit on a sustained 1000 Base-T link with this 550 MHz rated cable?

The 550 MHz bandwidth rating and 2 ft length support full 10/100/1000 Base-T throughput; the practical limit is the connected equipment's port speed, not the cable itself.
