Overview

The Monoprice 109812 is a 2-foot Cat6 Ethernet patch cable designed for short-distance connections where cable neatness matters. Built with 24 AWG stranded pure bare copper wire, it meets Cat6 specifications with 550MHz bandwidth support, ensuring full gigabit Ethernet performance over its short run. The stranded wire construction provides flexibility, making it easy to route between tightly spaced ports on switches, patch panels, and routers without stiff cable resistance.

The RJ45 connectors are fitted with 50-micron gold plated contacts that maintain a clean, low-resistance connection and resist the oxidation that can degrade signal quality over time. The color-matched blue snagless strain relief boot protects the connector's locking tab from snapping off, a common issue with short cables that are frequently plugged and unplugged. Backed by Monoprice's Lifetime Warranty, this cable is a straightforward, affordable solution for keeping short patch runs tidy and reliable.
