Technical Overview
This CAT6 patch cable operates at 650MHz and utilizes unshielded twisted pair (UTP) construction with minimized near-end crosstalk (NEXT) for clean signal transmission. The 24 AWG copper wiring supports IEEE 802.3bt PoE++ standards, delivering up to 100W of power while reducing cable heating through DTE power compliance.
The cable's construction includes strain relief features and a high-quality PVC jacket that resists bending, fraying, rust, corrosion, and general damage. Gold-plated connectors with 50-micron plating prevent oxidation and maintain reliable electrical contact over extended use.
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 transfer speed this CAT6 cable supports?
This StarTech.com CAT6 Ethernet cable supports data transfer rates up to 10 Gbit/s. It's designed for multi-gigabit connections including 1Gbps, 2.5Gbps, and 5Gbps networks, with 10Gbps capability maintained up to 160 feet under optimal conditions. The 650MHz frequency rating and 24 AWG copper conductors ensure reliable high-speed performance for demanding network applications.
Does this Ethernet cable support Power over Ethernet (PoE)?
Yes, this cable fully supports Power over Ethernet up to 100W. It complies with IEEE 802.3bt PoE++ standards and features UL rated wiring (E132276-A) that reduces cable heating through DTE power compliance. This makes it suitable for powering devices like VoIP phones, security cameras, and other network equipment that require both data and power over a single cable connection.
What type of connectors does this patch cable have?
This cable has RJ-45 network male connectors on both ends with 50-micron gold plating. The connectors feature snagless molded boots that prevent accidental disconnections in crowded wiring environments. The gold plating resists rust and corrosion, maintaining reliable electrical contact over extended use while minimizing network downtime.
Is this cable shielded or unshielded?
This is an unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable with no additional shielding. It utilizes minimized near-end crosstalk (NEXT) design to maintain signal integrity without shielding.
