Product Features
Technical Overview
This Cat6 cable supports Gigabit Ethernet speeds up to 1 Gbps over distances up to 100 meters, though this 3 ft variant is optimized for patch applications. It uses 28 AWG conductors for a slim profile without sacrificing signal integrity, and the RJ-45 male connectors on both ends ensure compatibility with standard network ports.
The cable incorporates minimized near-end crosstalk (NEXT) technology to reduce interference and maintain clear data transmission. Strain relief features enhance durability, and the molded boot construction provides added protection against physical wear.
Key Product Advantages
This cable combines practical design with reliable performance for everyday networking needs. Its slim profile and snagless boots make installation and maintenance straightforward, while the white color blends seamlessly with modern office aesthetics.
Enhanced Durability
Molded strain relief and booted connectors protect against bending and pulling, extending cable lifespan in high-traffic environments.
- Snagless boot prevents accidental unplugging
- Strain relief reduces connector stress
Optimized Signal Quality
Minimized near-end crosstalk (NEXT) technology ensures stable data transmission with reduced interference, supporting consistent network performance.
- Cat6 compliance for Gigabit Ethernet
- UTP construction for cost-effective reliability
Deployment / Use Cases
This patch cable is versatile for various networking scenarios where short, reliable connections are required. It is commonly used to link devices in server racks, connect workstations to wall outlets, or join networking equipment in compact setups.
Ideal for office environments, home networks, and small to medium-sized businesses, the cable supports devices such as computers, printers, IP phones, and gaming consoles. Its unshielded design suits typical indoor use without excessive electromagnetic interference.
Office Networking
Connect computers to switches or routers in cubicles and conference rooms, with the slim design fitting neatly behind furniture.
Data Center Patching
Use in server racks for short interconnects between switches and servers, where the snagless boot prevents disruptions during maintenance.
Physical Profile
The cable features a white jacket that matches common office decor and simplifies identification in cable bundles. With a lightweight design of 1.12 oz (31.75 g), it is easy to handle and install. The slim form factor reduces bulk, making it suitable for high-density patch panels and tight spaces.

FAQ
What is the maximum data speed supported by this Cat6 cable?
This Cat6 cable supports Gigabit Ethernet speeds up to 1 Gbps, suitable for most office and home networking applications. It is designed to handle high-bandwidth tasks like file transfers, video streaming, and online gaming without performance degradation over its 3 ft length.
Are both ends of the cable the same connector type?
Yes, both ends feature identical RJ-45 male connectors, making it a straight-through patch cable. This configuration is standard for connecting network devices like computers, switches, and routers, ensuring plug-and-play compatibility without adapters.
What does 'snagless boot' mean on this Ethernet cable?
The snagless boot is a protective cover over the RJ-45 connector that prevents the release tab from catching on other cables or objects. This design reduces accidental disconnections and simplifies cable management in crowded setups like server racks or behind desks.
Is this cable shielded or unshielded?
This cable uses unshielded twisted pair (UTP) construction, meaning it lacks additional shielding layers. UTP is cost-effective and sufficient for most indoor environments without high electromagnetic interference, providing reliable performance for standard Ethernet networks.
