Cat6 Network Ethernet Cable 140ft Green - Solid 23AWG Copper

In this review the reviewer tested the 140ft Cat6 network Ethernet cable to assess real-world performance and build quality for LAN installations. The bottom line: this cable is aimed at users who need a long, single-run connection with dependable signal integrity, because its 23AWG solid bare copper conductors and UL ETL listing prioritize longevity and consistent performance over thin, cheaper alternatives. For anyone wiring a home network, connecting entertainment equipment, or running PoE to remote devices, the cable provides a straightforward, high-quality option without unnecessary frills.

Key Features

• Length and color: The 140ft green jacket gives plenty of reach for long runs while the color helps identify the line among other cables.
• Conductor construction: Solid 23AWG bare copper cores reduce strand interaction and improve noise rejection for clearer signal delivery across the run.
• Connector type: RJ45 pass through gold-plated connectors allow easier terminations and reliable contacts when hand-terminating or using a crimp tool.
• Standards compliance: UL ETL listed and EIA/TIA-568 compliant, which helps ensure consistent category 6 performance up to specified limits.
• Performance: Rated up to 500MHz, which supports higher bandwidth LAN applications and common PoE devices without sacrificing stability.
• Made in USA: Custom cut and made in USA with foreign and domestic components, offering traceability and domestic assembly for projects that require it.

Who It's For

The cable is best for homeowners, small offices, and AV installers who need a long, single-run Cat6 cable for devices such as routers, switches, VoIP phones, set-top boxes, smart TVs, and PoE devices. The solid 23AWG construction is particularly useful where a stable, low-loss connection is more important than flexibility, such as in-wall or conduit runs.

Those who should look elsewhere include users who need highly flexible patch cables for frequent moves or desk-side connections, or anyone wanting shielded cable for strong EMI environments; unshielded twisted pair is specified here, so shielded Cat6 variants are a better match if interference is a concern.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Solid 23AWG bare copper conductors provide long-term conductivity and improved noise rejection for stable LAN connections.
• RJ45 pass through gold-plated connectors simplify termination and maintain reliable contact over time.
• UL ETL and EIA/TIA-568 compliance give confidence for installations that require recognized standards.
• Long 140ft length and distinctive green jacket make routing and identification easier for structured cabling.

Cons

• Unshielded construction may not be ideal in high-interference industrial environments where shielded cable is preferable.
• Solid 23AWG is less flexible than stranded alternatives, so it is not the best choice for frequent reconfiguration or tight, movable connections.

Our Verdict

The 140ft Cat6 cable is a solid pick for in-wall runs, long-distance LAN links, and installations that value conductor quality and standards compliance. With solid 23AWG copper, pass-through RJ45 ends, and UL ETL listing, it offers reliable performance and good value for anyone wiring a home network or small office, though those needing maximum flexibility or EMI shielding should consider other types.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this cable suitable for Power over Ethernet (PoE)?
Yes. The solid 23AWG copper conductors and Cat6 specification support common PoE devices within standard power limits.

Can this cable be used for in-wall installation?
Yes. The product is intended for LAN wiring runs and its solid core construction is appropriate for in-wall or conduit installations; follow local building codes for plenum requirements.

Does the cable support gigabit Ethernet?
Yes. Cat6 performance up to 500MHz supports gigabit Ethernet and many higher-bandwidth LAN applications over the specified run length.
