Description
Our AV:Link Cat6 UTP patch lead connects two devices over an RJ45 plug to RJ45 plug run of 10 metres. It uses a stranded copper conductor rated at 7x0.18mm (25AWG), which keeps the cable flexible and easy to route around desks, racks and skirting. The design is snag-less, so the connectors slot in and pull out without catching on the retaining clip.
This lead supports frequencies up to 250 MHz and handles high-speed data transmission of up to 1,000Mbps (1Gbps), which covers gigabit home and office networks. We built it for uniform impedance, low return loss and a good signal-to-noise ratio, all of which help keep your connection steady over the full 10 metre length. The core diameter is 7x0.18mm and the overall cable diameter is 6.0mm.
You can use it with PCs, printers, servers, routers, switch boxes and more, and it stays fully backwards compatible with your existing network kit. This is a UTP (unshielded twisted pair) patch lead, sometimes called a patch cable or Ethernet lead. Shorter lengths in the range are supplied in a retail friendly sealed bag, so they arrive tidy and ready to plug in.

Frequently Asked
What speed does this Cat6 lead support?
It supports high-speed data transmission of up to 1,000Mbps (1Gbps) and frequencies up to 250 MHz, which covers standard gigabit networks.
What length is this patch lead?
This version is 10.0 metres, with an RJ45 plug on each end.
Is it shielded?
No, this is a UTP lead, which stands for unshielded twisted pair. It relies on twisted pairs rather than added shielding.
What devices can I use it with?
You can connect PCs, printers, servers, routers, switch boxes and more. It is backwards compatible with existing network equipment.
What does snag-less mean?
The connector boot covers the retaining clip so it will not catch on cables or ports when you plug in or unplug the lead.
What is the cable diameter?
The overall cable diameter is 6.0mm, with a core of 7x0.18mm stranded copper.
