Five metres is the length you actually need when the NIC is on one side of the desk and the switch is on the other. This Jaycar CAT6A patch cable runs up to 10Gbps through 24 AWG unshielded (U/UTP) copper, so file transfers stop crawling and that shared drive stops timing out mid-save. Red jacket means you'll find it in a tangle of grey leads without guessing. No hub, no Wi-Fi compromise, no
