Product Features
Technical Overview
This CAT6 patch cable complies with ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 standards, guaranteeing performance for up to 250 MHz bandwidth and supporting Power over Ethernet (PoE++) up to 90W per IEEE 802.3bt Type 4 specifications. The unshielded twisted pair (UTP) construction with four twisted pairs (eight conductors) maintains low near-end crosstalk (NEXT) and return loss for reliable signal integrity.
Fluke testing validates the cable's performance, ensuring compatibility with CAT6 and backward compatibility with CAT5/5e networks. The 50-micron gold-plated contacts provide corrosion resistance and a precise fit, while the stranded copper wiring enhances flexibility for routing in tight spaces.
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.
