Category 6 patch cable for short runs

This four-foot yellow cable connects two RJ45 ports in a Cat 6 link. It suits home offices, small-business desks or patch-panel jumps where a short, colour-coded lead keeps the rack tidy. The snagless boot protects the locking tab during frequent moves. Builders who need longer reach or a different colour should choose another length.

Cat 6 rating

The cable meets Cat 6 cabling standards and is also rated for Cat 5e and Cat 5 applications. That single rating decides whether the link can carry gigabit speeds over the installed distance. If your infrastructure requires Cat 6a or higher performance, this lead will not satisfy that requirement.

Moulded snagless connectors

Both ends use moulded RJ45 plugs with integral strain relief and a snagless hood. The hood stops the latch from catching on adjacent cables, so the connection stays secure when the lead is pulled through trunking or rearranged. No additional tools, boots or software are supplied.

Questions about this item

What does the Cat 6 rating actually deliver when I plug this cable into my router and PC?

The Cat 6 construction supports gigabit Ethernet speeds over the full 4 ft length, so you get the full throughput your router and network card negotiate without the cable becoming the bottleneck.

Which connector standard does this cable use and what speed ceiling does it impose?

Both ends are RJ45 plugs wired to the Cat 6 specification, which caps the link at 1 Gbps for standard gigabit Ethernet equipment.

Will the 4 ft length and moulded boots fit cleanly behind a patch panel or desk switch?

At 4 ft the cable reaches nearby ports with minimal slack, and the snagless moulded boots protect the locking tabs while sliding into dense patch panels or switch ports.
