Product Features
Technical Overview
This cable meets Category 6 standards, supporting data transfer rates up to 10 Gbit/s over distances up to 55 meters, with the 20-foot length providing ample reach for most patch applications. The 24 AWG stranded copper construction offers flexibility and resistance to breakage from repeated bending, while the unshielded design (UTP) simplifies installation in typical office environments.
The RJ-45 connectors feature gold-plated contacts for reliable signal transmission and corrosion resistance, with molded strain relief boots that protect the cable termination points from physical stress. The gray PVC jacket provides a professional appearance and basic protection against abrasion and environmental factors.

FAQ
What is the maximum data transfer speed of this Rocstor network cable?
This Category 6 cable supports data transfer rates up to 10 Gbit/s (10 gigabits per second), which is sufficient for high-bandwidth applications including large file transfers, video streaming, and network backups. The Category 6 specification ensures it can handle modern network demands while maintaining backward compatibility with older Cat5e and Cat5 standards at their respective maximum speeds.
Can this cable be used for Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications?
Yes, this Rocstor network cable is PoE compatible and can deliver both data and electrical power over a single connection. This makes it suitable for powering devices such as VoIP phones, wireless access points, security cameras, and other PoE-enabled equipment without requiring separate power cables. The 24 AWG copper conductors are sized appropriately to handle PoE current requirements.
What type of connectors does this cable have on each end?
Both ends of this cable feature standard RJ-45 male connectors, which are the most common connector type for Ethernet networks. Each connector has gold-plated contacts for reliable signal transmission and corrosion resistance, with molded strain relief boots that protect the cable termination points from physical stress during frequent connection and disconnection cycles.
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 cables are suitable for most office and home environments where electromagnetic interference is minimal. The twisted pair design itself provides some noise rejection, and the absence of shielding makes the cable more flexible and easier to install in typical patch applications.
