Prolink cat6a gray 5m

Start with length, jacket material and wiring standard. This range includes gray LSZH patch cords in short lengths like 0.5m and 0.25m, plus longer options in other colors for larger layouts. All cords are Cat6 and use T568B wiring with four insulated pairs, supporting reliable performance up to 250 MHz. The inner conductors are AWG23/7 and the contacts are plated with 0.7 μm gold for durable connections. The LSZH jacket minimizes smoke and halogen release, enhancing safety in indoor installations.

LSZH stands for Low Smoke Zero Halogen, which reduces toxic fumes and smoke during a fire, improving safety in offices, homes, and data spaces. This collection features LSZH jackets on many Cat6 patches, aligning with indoor-use safety expectations. The cords maintain standard Cat6 performance, designed for frequencies up to 250 MHz, and use robust materials such as polycarbonate plug housings and brass contacts with gold plating to ensure reliable, long-lasting connections.

Color does not affect performance; all cords share the same Cat6 credentials and electrical characteristics. You’ll find gray options alongside other colors like yellow, orange, and black, with the same four-pair construction and T568B wiring. This lets you color‑code cables for easy identification while enjoying identical data speeds and signal integrity.

For a compact desk setup, choose 0.5m or 1m gray cords to minimize clutter while preserving signal integrity. For longer runs, you can select longer cords in the same family (though available colors may vary by length), which still conform to Cat6 standards. All options use AWG23/7 conductors and a four-pair design, ensuring consistent performance across different lengths when routed properly.

All cords use standard RJ45 plugs wired to the T568B scheme with four pairs of conductors, aligning with common Ethernet gear. These Cat6 patches are designed to fit typical jacks and network devices, delivering reliable gigabit or faster performance within the Cat6 specification. Gold-plated contacts further support durability through repeated insertions and removals.

Avoid sharp bends and tight loops to protect the AWG23/7 conductors and gold-plated contacts. Keep cords away from extreme heat and moisture and store them loosely coiled when not in use. If you perform electrical checks, expect insulation resistance values around 250 MΩ or higher, which indicate good insulation. Regularly inspect the jacket for signs of wear, and replace any damaged cords to maintain network reliability.
