Product Features
Technical Overview
This CAT6 patch cable supports data transfer speeds up to 550 MHz, making it suitable for Gigabit Ethernet and other high-speed network applications. The S/FTP shielding combines individual foil shielding for each twisted pair with an overall braided shield, providing robust EMI/RF protection to maintain signal integrity in electrically noisy environments.
The gold-plated RJ45 connectors enhance conductivity and resist corrosion, ensuring long-term reliability. The 26 AWG stranded copper conductors offer flexibility and durability, while the snagless molded boots prevent accidental disconnections and protect the connectors from dust and damage.

FAQ
What is the difference between S/FTP and UTP shielding?
S/FTP (Shielded/Foiled Twisted Pair) shielding provides both individual foil shielding around each twisted pair and an overall braided shield, offering superior protection against electromagnetic interference compared to UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair) cables. This makes S/FTP cables ideal for environments with high electrical noise, such as near power cables or industrial equipment, ensuring more stable network performance.
Can this cable be used for PoE (Power over Ethernet) applications?
Yes, this CAT6 patch cable supports PoE applications. The 26 AWG conductors and robust shielding are designed to handle both data and power transmission reliably. It is suitable for connecting PoE devices like IP cameras, wireless access points, and VoIP phones, providing stable performance for powered network equipment.
What does the snagless boot design offer?
The snagless molded boot prevents the connector latch from catching on other cables, ports, or rack components during installation or maintenance. This design reduces the risk of accidental disconnections and physical damage to the connector, making it easier to insert and remove the cable in high-density networking environments while protecting the RJ45 plug.
Is this cable backward compatible with older network standards?
Yes, this CAT6 cable is fully backward compatible with CAT5e and CAT5 standards. It can be used in networks running at lower speeds, such as 10/100 Mbps Ethernet, while also supporting higher-performance applications like Gigabit Ethernet. The shielding and construction ensure reliable performance across compatible network equipment.
