Technical Overview
These CAT6 patch cables support data transfer speeds up to 10 Gbps over distances up to 55 meters, making them suitable for modern network environments. The UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair) design with minimized near-end crosstalk (NEXT) ensures stable connectivity in typical office settings without excessive electromagnetic interference.
The connectors incorporate 50-micron gold plating for corrosion resistance and reliable electrical contact, while the snagless boot design prevents clip damage during cable management. The CMG-rated jacket offers general-purpose use for in-wall installations where required, and the stranded wire construction provides flexibility for routing around desks, racks, or tight spaces.
This section brings together practical product details such as Cable Type, Cable Characteristic, Cable Length, Color Family, so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.

User Manual
FAQ
What is the maximum data speed supported by these CAT6 cables?
These CAT6 cables support data transfer speeds up to 10 Gigabits per second (10 Gbps) over distances up to 55 meters, making them suitable for Gigabit Ethernet and other high-bandwidth network applications in office and data center environments.
Are the connectors on both ends of the cable the same type?
Yes, both ends feature identical RJ-45 male connectors, designed for standard Ethernet ports on devices like computers, switches, and routers. This symmetrical design simplifies connections without requiring adapters.
What does 'snagless boot' mean on these cables?
The snagless boot is a protective cover over the RJ45 connector clip that prevents it from catching on other cables or rack components during installation. This reduces breakage and extends the cable's lifespan in high-traffic networking setups.
Can these cables be used for in-wall installations?
The cables have a CMG-rated jacket, which is suitable for general-purpose use, including in-wall installations where local building codes permit. However, always verify specific plenum or riser requirements with local regulations before installation.
What is the warranty on this 10-pack of CAT6 cables?
StarTech.com provides a lifetime warranty on these cables, covering defects in materials and workmanship for the duration of use. This ensures long-term reliability and support for business networking investments.
Are these cables environmentally compliant?
Yes, these cables meet EU RoHS, REACH, and WEEE environmental standards, meaning they are free from hazardous substances and designed for responsible disposal or recycling, aligning with corporate sustainability goals.
