Product Features
Technical Overview
This Cat6 network cable supports data transfer speeds up to 1 Gbps at 100 MHz bandwidth, making it suitable for Gigabit Ethernet applications. The unshielded twisted pair construction reduces crosstalk and electromagnetic interference while maintaining flexibility for routing through conduits, under carpets, or along baseboards.
The RJ-45 connectors feature gold-plated contacts for reliable signal transmission and corrosion resistance. Each connector is molded directly to the cable for strain relief, ensuring durable connections that withstand repeated plugging and unplugging cycles.
Key Product Advantages
This patch cable combines practical network connectivity with durable construction for business environments. The Category 6 specification ensures backward compatibility with Cat5e and Cat5 networks while providing headroom for future network upgrades.

FAQ
What is the maximum data transfer speed supported by this Cat6 cable?
This Category 6 cable supports data transfer speeds up to 1 Gigabit per second (1 Gbps) with a bandwidth of 100 MHz. It is designed for Gigabit Ethernet applications and maintains reliable performance across its full 20-foot length while being backward compatible with slower Cat5e and Cat5 networks.
What does 'snagless boot' mean on this Ethernet cable?
The snagless boot is a protective cover over the RJ-45 connector latch that prevents the latch from catching on other cables, rack components, or obstacles during installation and removal. This design reduces the risk of accidental disconnections and latch damage in dense network environments like server racks and patch panels.
Can this cable be used for PoE (Power over Ethernet) applications?
Yes, this Cat6 cable supports standard Power over Ethernet applications. The Category 6 specification provides adequate wire gauge and construction to carry both data and power for devices like VoIP phones, wireless access points, and security cameras that receive power through their Ethernet connection.
What is the difference between UTP and shielded Ethernet cables?
UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair) cables like this one use twisted wire pairs without additional metallic shielding. They are suitable for most office and commercial environments where electromagnetic interference is minimal. Shielded cables add foil or braid shielding for environments with high interference but are less flexible and more expensive.
