Bare copper carries signal more efficiently than cheaper alternatives, and it keeps the cable compliant with communication cable specifications. Cable Matters rates the cable at up to 550 MHz of bandwidth and states that it meets or exceeds Category 6 performance under the TIA\/EIA 568-C.2 standard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwenty feet is a practical length for wiring a desktop to a router across a room, feeding a media console, or reaching a wall-mounted access point. The connectors use gold-plated contacts and strain-relief boots, and the snagless design is meant to stop the release tab from catching on carpet edges, cable bundles, or rack hardware when the cable is pulled through. Those are small touches, but they are the parts that tend to fail first on a patch cable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeyond straightforward data duty, the cable supports Power over Ethernet in its PoE, PoE+, and PoE++ variants, which makes it usable for IP cameras, VoIP phones, and wireless access points that draw power over the same run. It is ready for 10-Gigabit Ethernet and backwards compatible with existing Cat 5 networks, so it can slot into current hardware while leaving headroom for a future upgrade. For servers, cloud workloads, video surveillance, and high-definition streaming, a wired link like this remains the more consistent and more secure option compared to Wi-Fi.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cable Matters","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53703773356339,"sku":null,"price":7.83,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0714\/7526\/5843\/files\/41ruSVkhuaL._SL500.jpg?v=1784841408","url":"https:\/\/studio-supplies.com\/products\/cable-matters-snagless-cat-6-ethernet-cable","provider":"Studio Supplies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
