The ProLink CAT6 Patch Cord 10m LSZH Yellow (Model: PL-PC-U6-10Y) 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 designed to connect network equipment with patch panels and telecommunications outlets where longer cable runs are required. The high-visibility yellow LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket supports organized, color-coded cable management in office, commercial, and enterprise networking environments.
Built to meet the performance requirements of Category 6 Class E according to ISO/IEC 11801, 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 Ethernet installations.
