1m Cat6 Ethernet Cable: High-Speed 250MHz Solution for Home & Office Networks
In today's gigabit network era, reliable and high-speed connectivity is essential for both home and office environments. Our 1m Cat6 Ethernet Cable is engineered to meet the rigorous ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 and ISO/IEC 11801 standards, delivering 250MHz bandwidth and supporting up to 10Gbps data transmission at short distances. With its compact 1-meter length, it is the ideal choice for connecting nearby network devices such as routers to computers, smart TVs to set-top boxes, and switches to access points, providing stable and fast network performance without unnecessary cable clutter.
1. Product Overview & Core Technical Parameters
Our 1m Cat6 Ethernet Cable adopts a U/UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair) structure with a built-in cross spline separator, which effectively reduces crosstalk and signal interference. It is specifically designed for short-distance high-speed transmission scenarios, ensuring seamless compatibility with all Cat6, Cat5e, and lower-category network devices. Below are the detailed technical parameters:
Standard Compliance: ANSI/TIA-568-C.2, ISO/IEC 11801 (Class E), EN 50173-1
Transmission Performance: Supports bandwidth up to 250MHz, enabling 1Gbps transmission at 100m and 10Gbps transmission at up to 55m; fully compatible with PoE/PoE+ (IEEE 802.3af/at) applications
Conductor: 24 AWG stranded oxygen-free copper (OFC) conductor, purity ≥ 99.99%, DC resistance ≤ 9.5 Ω/100m, ensuring low signal attenuation and high conductivity
Cabling Structure: U/UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair) – 4 pairs of twisted pairs with optimized twist ratio + integrated cross spline separator for reduced inter-pair crosstalk
Jacket Material: LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) or PVC, flame retardant grade: UL94 V-0, RoHS and REACH compliant
Connector: RJ45 8P8C with 50μ'' gold-plated contacts, snagless boot design for strain relief and anti-dust protection; compatible with T568A and T568B wiring standards
Operating Temperature: -20℃ ~ 70℃, adaptable to indoor home, office, and small data center environments
Cable Length: Fixed 1m (3.3ft), with clear length marking for easy identification; other lengths available on customization
2. Key Advantages of 1m Length & Cat6 Performance
2.1 Optimal Length for Short-Distance Connections
The 1-meter fixed length is tailored for short-distance device connections, eliminating cable tangling and clutter that often occurs with longer cables. It is perfect for scenarios such as connecting a desktop computer to a nearby router, a smart TV to a streaming device, or a PoE security camera to a network switch. The compact design also helps improve airflow in network cabinets and behind entertainment centers, reducing heat accumulation and extending device service life.
2.2 High-Speed Transmission & Broad Compatibility
With 250MHz bandwidth, our Cat6 Ethernet Cable supports up to 10Gbps data transmission at short distances (up to 55m), which is ideal for bandwidth-intensive applications such as 4K video streaming, online gaming, large file transfers, and video conferencing. It is fully backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat5 devices, ensuring seamless integration into existing network infrastructures without the need for additional upgrades.
2.3 Excellent Anti-Crosstalk & Signal Integrity
The integrated cross spline separator between the 4 twisted pairs effectively minimizes inter-pair crosstalk (NEXT/FEXT) and alien crosstalk (AXT), which are key factors affecting signal quality in unshielded cables. Each batch of 1m Cat6 cables undergoes rigorous testing with professional Fluke equipment to verify signal integrity, ensuring stable transmission with minimal packet loss and latency even in high-density cabling environments.
2.4 Durable Construction & Easy Installation
High-purity 24 AWG oxygen-free copper conductors ensure excellent conductivity and low signal attenuation, while 50μ'' gold-plated RJ45 contacts enhance corrosion resistance and connection reliability, supporting up to 750 mating cycles. The snagless boot design protects the connector clip during installation and provides extra strain relief, preventing cable damage from frequent plugging and unplugging. The flexible jacket material allows easy routing in tight spaces, simplifying installation even in confined areas.
2.5 Cost-Effective & Eco-Friendly Options
We offer both PVC and LSZH jacket options to meet different budget and environmental requirements. The PVC jacket provides cost-effectiveness for general home and office use, while the LSZH jacket emits minimal smoke and no toxic gases in case of fire, making it suitable for public buildings, schools, and hospitals. Our optimized production process ensures competitive pricing without compromising quality, making high-performance Cat6 connectivity accessible for both individuals and small businesses.
3. Typical Application Scenarios for 1m Cat6 Ethernet Cable
The 1m Cat6 Ethernet Cable is widely applicable to various short-distance high-speed connectivity scenarios, including:
Home Networks: Connecting desktop computers, laptops, smart TVs, gaming consoles, and streaming devices (e.g., Apple TV, Roku) to routers or switches for smooth 4K streaming and online gaming.
Office Environments: Linking office PCs, printers, IP phones (VoIP), and video conference equipment to the local area network, ensuring efficient data sharing and communication.
Small Data Centers & Server Racks: Patching between patch panels and nearby servers, switches, or NAS devices, supporting high-density 1Gbps/10Gbps transmission in limited space.
Security Systems: Connecting PoE security cameras to network video recorders (NVR) or PoE switches, providing both data transmission and power supply over a single cable.
Educational & Commercial Spaces: Used in classrooms, libraries, and retail stores to connect POS systems, digital signage, and Wi-Fi access points to the network infrastructure.
4. Quality Control & Certification
We implement strict quality control measures throughout the entire production process of our 1m Cat6 Ethernet Cables. From raw material inspection (copper conductors, jacket materials, connectors) to cable assembly and final testing, every step is subject to rigorous verification. All cables pass 100% performance testing, including bandwidth, insertion loss, return loss, crosstalk, and continuity. The product has obtained international certifications such as CE, RoHS, ETL, and UL, ensuring compliance with global market standards. We also offer a lifetime warranty for our Cat6 Ethernet Cables, demonstrating our confidence in product reliability.
5. Customization Services & Pricing
While our standard 1m Cat6 Ethernet Cable is available in multiple colors (black, white, gray, blue) to facilitate network color-coding, we also provide flexible customization services to meet specific customer needs:
Customization Options: Custom jacket color, jacket material (PVC/LSZH), connector gold-plating thickness (30μ'', 50μ'', 100μ''), and printing of logos or specifications.
OEM/ODM Services: Custom packaging (blister cards, color boxes, reels), private labeling, and personalized technical specifications for brand customers.
Pricing Policy: Competitive volume-based pricing for bulk orders. Taking the standard 1m Cat6 Ethernet Cable (PVC jacket, 50μ'' gold-plated contacts) as an example: $1.2-1.8 per unit for 1000-5000 units; $0.9-1.2 per unit for 5000-10000 units; $0.7-0.9 per unit for 10000+ units.
