The kenable Cat6 Ethernet cable is designed for home and office users who require reliable, high-speed Gigabit network connectivity at an affordable price point. By utilizing four unshielded twisted pairs, this cable supports data transmission speeds up to 1000 Mbps, offering a significant upgrade in bandwidth over standard Cat5e alternatives. A key caveat to consider is that this cable uses Copper Clad Aluminum (CCA) conductors, meaning it is not suitable for Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications, such as powering security cameras or VoIP phones.

No, this is a U/UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair) cable.
No. This cable uses CCA conductors and is not recommended for Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications.
LSZH stands for Low Smoke Zero Halogen, which refers to the jacket material that emits less toxic smoke in the event of combustion.
Yes, Cat6 is backwards compatible with Cat5e, allowing you to use it with standard older network hardware.
This cable supports speeds up to 1000 Mbps (Gigabit Ethernet).
The connectors are standard RJ-45 male plugs, following the unshielded design of the cable.
Ensure both ends of the cable are fully inserted into the ports until they click. Try a different port on your router or switch.
Verify that your hardware (routers and network cards) is Gigabit-capable, as Cat6 speed is limited by the slowest device in the chain.
Check the cable for physical damage or sharp kinks. Ensure the cable is not bundled tightly with power cables which can cause electromagnetic interference.
Installation is straightforward: simply plug the RJ-45 connector into the Ethernet port of your networking device until you hear a click. To maintain the life of your cable, avoid sharp bends or kinking, which can damage the internal twisted pairs. Since this cable uses CCA conductors, ensure it is only used for data transmission and never for powering devices. If the exterior gets dusty, wipe it down with a dry, lint-free cloth; avoid using liquid cleaners or harsh solvents that could degrade the LSZH jacket material.
