Cat6 Red Ethernet Patch Cable, Snagless/Molded Boot, 2 foot
10X8-07102
Cat6 Ethernet cables of the 2 foot length are typically used in server/network rooms for plugging between patch panels. This is not to say one cannot use them for other purposes such as connecting a Cable or DSL modem to a router/switch in the home or office. Cat6 cables are used for networking, data transfer, and phone lines. Cat6 Cable is used in network applications and has been designed specifically for Gigabit Ethernet applications. They perform at high-data transfer rates, and work with ATM and gigabit speed products. This particular cable is a red UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair) patch cable with molded boots (snagless installation) and extra protection for the RJ45 connector and clip. Cat6 cable includes a spline to help ensure separation between the pairs which limits cross talk. The connectors are wired to the T568B standard. The individual conductors are 24 AWG (American wire gauge) stranded pure copper. Cat6 patch cables are stranded to improve flexibility. Pure copper conductors provide the best signal possible. The RJ45 plug features gold connectors to prevent corrosion thus ensuring a longer cable life. Our Cat6 Ethernet patch cables exceed the EIA/TIA-568-C standard.

10X8-07102 Cat6 Red Copper Ethernet Patch Cable with features like a snagless/molded boot and POE (Power over Ethernet) compliance.
The Cat6 Ethernet cables are designed to support high-speed data transmission for Ethernet networking applications. The use of copper conductors ensures reliable signal transmission and performance. The red color is likely for aesthetic purposes or easy identification.
The snagless/molded boot feature helps protect the cable's connector from damage during installation or removal. It prevents the latch tab from catching or breaking, which can occur with regular connectors.
The POE compliance indicates that the cable is capable of carrying both data and power over Ethernet connections. This allows devices such as IP cameras, wireless access points, or VoIP phones to receive power through the Ethernet cable, eliminating the need for separate power cables.
