Product Features
Technical Overview
This Cat6 patch cable delivers robust performance with a 10 Gbit/s data transfer rate over its 25-foot length. The RJ-45 connectors use gold-plated contacts to maintain signal quality and reduce impedance compared to standard 100 MHz wiring. The cable's 4-pair construction and 24 AWG gauge support stable Ethernet connections across various network devices.
The snagless boot design protects the RJ-45 locking tabs during installation, preventing damage and ensuring secure connections. Features like molded strain relief and stranded conductors enhance durability and flexibility, while the CM jacket rating allows for safe placement in plenum spaces. The unshielded twisted pair (UTP) design simplifies deployment without compromising on Cat6 performance standards.
