Product Features
Technical Overview
Built to Category 6 specifications, this cable supports bandwidth up to 250 MHz, enabling reliable Gigabit Ethernet performance. The 24 AWG stranded copper conductors enhance flexibility while maintaining signal integrity, making it suitable for patch applications where cable movement is common.
The snagless boot design prevents accidental disconnection and reduces strain on the connector, while features like strain relief and damage-resistant construction extend cable lifespan. Near End Crosstalk (NEXT) performance is optimized to minimize interference, ensuring clean data transmission across connected devices.
This section brings together practical product details such as Cable Type, Cable Characteristic, Cable Length, Color Family, so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.
Key Product Advantages
This patch cable combines practical design with robust performance for everyday networking tasks. The gold-plated RJ-45 connectors ensure consistent contact and reduce oxidation over time, while the snagless boot protects against accidental unplugging in dense patch panels.
Durable Construction
The CM-rated PVC jacket resists wear and environmental factors, and the stranded conductors provide flexibility without sacrificing performance.
