Monoprice 111340 Cat6 Ethernet Cable 50ft Black

The Monoprice 111340 is a 50-foot Cat6 Ethernet patch cable built to deliver reliable wired network connections for home offices, media centers, gaming setups, and small business environments. It is constructed with 24AWG unshielded twisted pair (UTP) copper conductors and rated for 550MHz bandwidth, comfortably supporting Gigabit Ethernet speeds and capable of handling 10-Gigabit Ethernet over shorter segments within the cable's length. Each end is terminated with an RJ45 connector featuring 50-micron gold-plated contacts that resist corrosion and maintain a solid electrical connection over time.

The FLEXboot design is a practical detail that sets this cable apart from generic patch cords. The slim, flexible snagless strain relief boots protect the plastic retaining clips on the connectors from catching and snapping off when cables are pulled through bundles or removed from tight switch panels. The color-matched black boots and jacket give installations a tidy appearance. At 50 feet, this cable is long enough to run between adjacent rooms or from a router to a workstation across a large room, making it a versatile choice for wired networking without the complexity of bulk cable and custom termination.
