Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Cat6 and Cat5e patch cables?
Cat6 cables offer significantly higher bandwidth (250 MHz vs. 100 MHz) and support faster speeds up to 10 Gigabit Ethernet, compared to Cat5e's 1 Gigabit limitation. The ADD-ON Cat6 patch cable is ideal for modern networks requiring higher performance and future-proofing.
Can I use this RJ-45 patch cable for both network and phone connections?
Yes, the RJ-45 connector is versatile and compatible with standard Ethernet networks, VoIP systems, and other data applications. This ADD-ON cable works with any device featuring standard RJ-45 ports.
Is 3 feet long enough for my network setup?
The 3-foot length is perfect for connecting devices in close proximity, such as wall-mounted patch panels to network switches, desktop computers to wall outlets, or equipment in server racks. For longer distances, consider Cat6 cables in 5ft, 10ft, or 25ft lengths.
What does UTP mean in network cables?
UTP stands for Unshielded Twisted Pair. This design uses twisted copper wire pairs without additional shielding, making it cost-effective while maintaining excellent performance for most network environments. The ADD-ON UTP Cat6 cable balances performance and affordability.
