Product Features
Technical Overview
This Cat6 patch cable meets TIA/EIA-568-B.2-1 standards for Category 6 performance, ensuring compatibility with network switches, routers, computers, and other Ethernet-enabled devices. The unshielded twisted pair (UTP) construction reduces crosstalk and electromagnetic interference in typical office settings.
The cable's 24 AWG gauge provides a balance of flexibility and durability, while the molded boots integrate strain relief to protect the connector joints from physical stress. Gold-plated RJ-45 contacts maintain consistent electrical connectivity and resist oxidation over time.
Key Product Advantages
This patch cable combines practical design with reliable performance for everyday network infrastructure needs. The snagless molded boots prevent accidental disconnections in crowded patch panels or behind equipment, reducing downtime and maintenance efforts.
Durable Construction
The molded boots and strain relief features protect the cable from physical damage during installation and routine handling, extending the cable's operational lifespan in active environments.
- Snagless boot design
- Strain relief integration
- 24 AWG conductors
Environmental Compliance
Manufactured with RoHS-compliant materials, this cable meets environmental standards for hazardous substance restrictions, making it suitable for organizations with green procurement policies.
- RoHS certified
- Lead-free materials
- Environmentally friendly
Deployment / Use Cases
This 1-foot Cat6 patch cable is ideal for short-distance connections within network racks, between adjacent devices, or in space-constrained installations. Its compact length minimizes cable clutter while providing reliable connectivity for critical network links.
Common applications include connecting switches to routers in server racks, linking computers to wall outlets in office cubicles, or joining network devices in telecommunications closets. The blue color allows for easy identification and organization in multi-cable environments.

FAQ
What is the maximum data transfer speed supported by this Cat6 cable?
This Category 6 UTP patch cable supports data transfer frequencies up to 550 MHz, which enables Gigabit Ethernet performance (up to 1000 Mbps) for most network applications. The cable meets TIA/EIA-568-B.2-1 standards for Cat6 specifications, ensuring reliable high-speed connectivity in business environments.
Are both ends of this patch cable the same connector type?
Yes, both ends feature identical RJ-45 male connectors with gold-plated contacts. Each end has a single RJ-45 network connector, making this a straight-through patch cable suitable for connecting network devices like computers to switches or routers to patch panels.
What does 'snagless molded boot' mean for this cable?
The snagless molded boot is a protective cover over the RJ-45 connector that prevents the retention clip from catching on other cables or equipment during installation and removal. This design reduces accidental disconnections and physical damage, while the integrated strain relief protects the cable-connector junction from bending stress.
Is this cable shielded or unshielded?
This is an unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable, meaning it does not have additional foil or braid shielding around the wire pairs. UTP construction is standard for most office environments and provides adequate protection against interference while maintaining flexibility and cost-effectiveness for patch cable applications.
