Pro2 5m CAT6 Patch Cable Lead Cord Network Ethernet Internet for PC MAC Router

This item comes with a 12 month warranty.

Category 6 cable, commonly referred to as Cat-6, is a cable standard for Gigabit Ethernet and other network protocols that are backwards compatible with the Category 5/5e and Category 3 cable standards. To maintain transmission characteristics and network integrity, it's essential to use the correct type of patch-cord to match the installation. A network port will perform only at the level of the LOWEST-rated component in the chain. Features: UTP CAT6 Patch Lead - Each cord has eight multi-strand conductors in 4 twisted-pair T568A colour coded configuration. Quality cable material - Fitted with 50µ Category-6 compliant 2-row (staggered pins) plug and fully-moulded strain-relief boot. Moulded strain relief & Low profile flush moulded boots - With moulded strain relief RJ45 male-to-male connectors this cable will be strong, and robust. Packaged in heat-sealed hang-sell bags. Complies with the applicable electrical transmission characteristics and flame tests specified in: AS/ACIFS008:2006 ISO/IEC 11801 Category 6 TIA/EIA-568-B.2-1 Category 6 Conductor Material Bare Copper Size 24AWG Construction 7/0.195±0.015mm Insulation Material HD-PE Thickness Minimum at any point: 0.18mm Maximum average: 0.20mm Diameter: 0.96±0.03mm Jacket Material PVC Thickness Minimum at any point: 0.50mm Maximum average: 0.58mm Diameter: 5.8±0.03mm Category 6 Cable Standard: Category 6 is a standard that aims to support transmission at frequencies up to 250 MHz over 100Ω twisted pair. Supports current Category 6 applications such as 100BaseTX,100BaseVG, ATM, Gigabit Ethernet and all fast Ethernet protocols. How to distinguish a Cat 6 plug from a Cat-5 or Cat-5E plug: A Cat-5 or a Cat-5E plug will ALWAYS have all eight wires in a single row The majority of Cat-6 plugs will have wires in two rows with four wires per row

Category 6 Cable Standard:

• Category 6 is a standard that aims to support transmission at frequencies up to 250 MHz over 100Ω twisted pair.

• Supports current Category 6 applications such as 100BaseTX,100BaseVG, ATM, Gigabit Ethernet and all fast Ethernet protocols.

How to distinguish a Cat 6 plug from a Cat-5 or Cat-5E plug:

To distinguish a Cat-6 plug from a Cat-5 or a Cat-5E plug, just simply look at the way the cable's wires have been terminated at the end of the plug:

• A Cat-5 or a Cat-5E plug will ALWAYS have all eight wires in a single row

• The majority of Cat-6 plugs will have wires in two rows with four wires per row

• Some Cat-6 plugs will have wires in two rows with 6 wires in the top row and 2 wires in the bottom row
