Cat 6 patch cable for gigabit networks

This seven‑foot Category 6 patch cable connects two RJ‑45 ports for gigabit Ethernet links. The red jacket makes the run easy to identify in a crowded rack or behind a desk. Snagless boots protect the locking tabs during repeated insertion and removal. It is rated for Category 6, 5e and 5 applications.

Installers who need a short, colour‑coded drop

Suited for technicians and home users running a single device to a switch, router or wall plate where a seven‑foot reach is sufficient. The snagless design helps in tight cable‑management channels. Not for installers who require longer runs, in‑wall rated jackets, or shielded cable for high‑EMI environments.

7 ft length decides the reach

At 7 ft (6.89 ft exact) the cable spans only short distances between adjacent equipment. Verify that the path from patch panel to device fits within this limit before ordering. No other specification overrides this physical constraint.

Questions about this item

Which length should I pick for a short desk-to-router run?

This cable is 7 ft long, or 6.89 ft precisely, which suits a typical desk-to-router distance without excess slack.

What does the Cat 6 rating deliver when the cable is plugged into a gigabit port?

Cat 6 construction supports gigabit Ethernet speeds over the full 7 ft run with reduced impedance and crosstalk compared with Cat 5e.

How does the RJ45 connector limit the maximum throughput?

Each end uses an RJ45 male connector, which is the standard interface for Cat 6 and caps practical throughput at 1 Gbps on gigabit equipment.
