Product Features
Technical Overview
This Cat6 patch cable supports data transfer speeds up to 1 Gbps and frequencies up to 550 MHz, meeting the performance standards for modern Ethernet networks. The stranded conductor construction enhances flexibility and durability, reducing the risk of breakage from repeated bending or movement.
The RJ45 connectors are molded directly onto the cable ends, providing a secure connection that resists pull-out and environmental interference. Gold plating on the contacts improves conductivity and corrosion resistance, ensuring long-term reliability in various operating conditions.
Key Product Advantages
This patch cable delivers consistent performance with features tailored for practical network deployment. Its compact length and flexible design make it a versatile solution for organizing and connecting equipment in racks, desks, or confined areas.
Reliable Connectivity
Gold-plated RJ45 connectors and 24 AWG stranded copper ensure stable connections and reduce signal degradation over time.
- Gold contacts resist corrosion
- Stranded wires enhance flexibility
Easy Identification
The bright yellow jacket allows for quick visual differentiation in complex cable bundles, simplifying troubleshooting and maintenance.
- High-visibility color
- Non-booted ends for easy handling
Deployment / Use Cases
This 1-foot Cat6 patch cable is optimized for short-distance connections where space is limited and cable management is critical. It is commonly used in server racks, network closets, and desktop setups to link devices without excess cable slack.
Typical applications include connecting a computer to a wall jack, linking a switch to a router in a rack, or attaching a network printer to an Ethernet port. The non-booted design is particularly useful in high-density environments where booted connectors might snag or require additional clearance.
Server Rack Connections
Ideal for interconnecting switches, routers, and servers within a rack, minimizing cable clutter and improving airflow.
- Short length reduces tangling
- Flexible for tight bends
Desktop and Office Use
Perfect for connecting computers, IP phones, or printers to network outlets in office environments, with a clean and organized appearance.
- Yellow color aids identification
- Non-booted ends simplify insertion

FAQ
What is the length of this Axiom Cat6 patch cable?
This Axiom Cat6 patch cable is 1 foot (0.30 meters) long, making it suitable for short-distance connections between network devices such as switches, routers, and computers in racks or desktop setups.
What type of connectors does this cable have on each end?
Both ends of the cable feature RJ45 male connectors, each with gold-plated contacts. This configuration provides a standard Ethernet connection for linking network devices directly without adapters.
What does 'non-booted' mean for this patch cable?
Non-booted refers to the absence of a protective boot or cover over the RJ45 connector. This design allows for easier insertion and removal in tight spaces, such as high-density network racks, where booted connectors might snag or require extra clearance.
What is the wire gauge and why is it important?
This cable uses 24 AWG (American Wire Gauge) stranded copper conductors. The 24 AWG thickness ensures proper current carrying capacity and signal integrity, while stranded construction enhances flexibility and resistance to breakage from repeated bending or movement.
