Product Description
A 10m white CAT6 patch lead for straight-through RJ45 connections in Gigabit Ethernet installs. It suits switch-to-NVR runs, PC drops and general LAN cabling in offices, CCTV control rooms and residential blocks.
Key specs
- T568B wiring, RJ45 male both ends — pre-terminated, straight-through, no crossover adapter needed
- Made with 24AWG CCA (copper clad aluminium) stranded cores, this cable handles 1000Base-T Gigabit Ethernet over runs of up to 100m.
- 250MHz bandwidth — exceeds CAT5e, backward-compatible with CAT5e equipment
- UTP construction — unshielded, for standard indoor runs
- Gold-plated contacts, snagless moulded boots — protect clips during patch panel and rack insertion
- 10m length, white PVC jacket — suited to visible runs in control rooms and offices
Where it fits on a job
Typical pairings include connecting a PoE switch to an IP camera or NVR, linking a router to an NVR, or running a PC to a wall drop — alongside power leads and HDMI cables on the same install.
CCA vs pure copper — a selection factor
CCA construction is cost-optimised for non-critical horizontal runs where pure copper isn't specified. It is not recommended for PoE++ or 10GBase-T backbone applications — factor this in when specifying cable for higher-power camera runs or backbone links.

Frequently Asked Questions
What wiring standard is this cable terminated to?
T568B, straight-through, with RJ45 male connectors at both ends — no crossover adapter needed.
Is this cable suitable for PoE++ or 10GBase-T backbone runs?
No. The CCA construction is cost-optimised for non-critical horizontal runs and is not recommended for PoE++ or 10GBase-T backbone applications.
What data speeds and distance does it support?
It supports 1000Base-T Gigabit Ethernet up to 100m, with 250MHz bandwidth exceeding CAT5e performance.
Is it shielded?
No, it's UTP (unshielded twisted pair), suited to typical indoor installations.
