The ProLink CAT6 Patch Cord 10m LSZH Gray (Model: PL-PC-U6-10G) is a professional-grade Category 6 U/UTP Ethernet patch cord designed for structured cabling systems. Engineered with an extended 10-meter length, it is ideal for connecting active network equipment to telecommunications outlets or patching across large distribution frames. The gray LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket provides a neutral, clean appearance while supporting organized cable management in office, commercial, and enterprise networking environments.
Built to meet the performance requirements of ISO/IEC 11801 Category 6 Class E (250 MHz), this cable maintains a characteristic impedance of 100 ohms and supports reliable Ethernet data transmission at frequencies up to 250 MHz. It is fully backward compatible with Cat5e infrastructure, making it suitable for both legacy network upgrades and new Gigabit installations.
