Cat5e / Cat6 Cables, Network Patch Cables


Category 6 network patch cables are considered today's standard for ethernet connections. Cat6 and Cat6A cables combine affordability with connection quality, and when you're purchasing from Cables.com, you can be sure you're getting the best cable for your money. Cables.com stocks Category 6 cables for indoor and outdoor use. Let's take a look at some of what we have to offer!

Why Category 6 cables?

Since their adoption in the 1990s, Category 6 cables have become the industry standard network patch cord for modern data network installations. Cat6 cables offer up to twice the speed of Category 5e cables and are gigabit rated, which makes them suitable for POE (Power Over Ethernet) devices - no additional cables needed! Out Datacomm Cat6 and Cat6A cables offer a reliable and secure connection between your devices and your home or office connection. But what if limits on space mean your cables need to be run outdoors? Cables.com has you covered with outdoor Cat6 cables that are sure to withstand the added wear and tear of outdoor installation. 

Our Cat6/Cat6A outdoor ethernet cables are built to withstand the elements. This means that they're waterproof, and suitable for direct burial usage. They're also UV resistant. These network patch cables use only bare copper for the best signal transmission and feature a 23AWG heavy duty LLDPE jacket for lifelong durability, which makes them resistant to damage from burrowing pests like rodents or insects. Our Cat6 outdoor cables are rated at 550Mhz, while our Cat6A outdoor cables are rated at 600Mhz, making them suitable for both POE and VOIP applications and up to 10Gbps performance. Their shielded cable and RJ45 connectors cuts down on EMI, or electromagnetic interference.
