Cat 6 Patch Cables
Category 6 cable, commonly referred to as Cat 6, is a cable standard for Gigabit Ethernet and other network protocols that is backward compatible with the Category 3, 5, and 5e. Cat-6 features more stringent specifications for crosstalk and system noise by requiring 22 to 24AWG conductors. The cable standard provides performance of up to 250 MHz and is suitable for 10BASE-T / 100BASE-TX and 1000BASE-T (Gigabit Ethernet). It is expected to suit the 10GBASE-T (10Gigabit Ethernet) standard, although there are limitations on maximum length if unshielded Cat 6 cable is used. Cat 6 connectors are made to higher standards that help reduce noise caused by crosstalk and system noise. Please select from our products below or visit our Networking Tutorial to learn more.
