Great quality, slightly stiff
The cable quality is excellent and feels very durable. It is a bit stiffer than unshielded cables due to the extra shielding, which made routing it behind my TV stand slightly tricky, but performance is top-notch.

Zero lag, solid build
Upgraded from an old Cat5e cable and immediately noticed the stability. The connectors click in securely, and the boots prevent bending at the critical point. Highly recommend for gaming rigs.

Reliable connection for NAS
Connected my NAS to the router with this cable. Transfer speeds are maxing out my gigabit port consistently. The build quality inspires confidence that it will last for years.

Best value for money
You don't need to spend a fortune on branded cables. This Akihabara cable performs just as well as the big names at a fraction of the price. Fast delivery too.

Perfect for my home office setup
This cable is exactly what I needed. The shielding really helps reduce interference near my power strips, and the gray color blends perfectly with my desk setup. Connection speeds are stable and fast.

Professional grade for home use
I use these for client installations and decided to get one for my own home. The shielding effectively blocks EMI, ensuring consistent gigabit speeds even in electrically noisy environments.
Q: What lengths are available for this gray Cat6 cable?
A: We currently stock this Akihabara Gray Cat6 Shielded cable in lengths ranging from 3 feet to 50 feet. Please check the dropdown menu on the product page for current availability.
Q: Are the connectors gold-plated?
A: Yes, the RJ45 connectors feature 50-micron gold plating to ensure corrosion resistance and optimal conductivity for a stable connection over time.
Q: Does the shielding make the cable difficult to bend around corners?
A: The shielding does add slight rigidity compared to unshielded cables. However, the cable remains flexible enough for standard home routing. We recommend avoiding sharp 90-degree bends to maintain signal integrity.
Q: Will this work with a Cat5e router?
A: Yes, absolutely. Cat6 cables are backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat5 routers and devices. You will simply operate at the maximum speed supported by your router.
Q: Is this cable suitable for outdoor use?
A: This specific model is designed for indoor use. While the shielding offers some protection, the PVC jacket is not UV-rated or waterproof for direct outdoor exposure. We recommend using an outdoor-rated conduit if running outside.
