Product Features
Technical Overview
This CAT6 cable pack meets ANSI/TIA 568 C.2 standards, supporting data transfer speeds up to 1 Gbps at 250 MHz bandwidth. The 50-micron gold-plated connectors minimize signal loss and corrosion, while the snagless boot design prevents clip breakage and cable snags during routing and maintenance.
The 24 AWG stranded copper conductors enhance flexibility and reduce crosstalk, and the CMG (Communications Multipurpose Cable) jacket is suitable for general-purpose use in plenum spaces. Each cable is ETL verified for performance and safety compliance.
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 length of each cable in this pack?
Each CAT6 Ethernet cable in this 10-pack is 6 feet (1.83 meters) long. This length is ideal for connecting devices within typical office desks, server racks, or network closets without excessive slack.
Are these cables shielded or unshielded?
These cables use unshielded twisted pair (UTP) construction. They are designed for general-purpose networking environments where shielding is not required, providing reliable performance with minimized near-end crosstalk.
What does the snagless boot feature do?
The snagless boot is a protective cover over the RJ45 connector clip that prevents it from catching on other cables, ports, or rack components during installation or removal. This reduces the risk of clip breakage and cable damage.
What standards do these CAT6 cables comply with?
These cables are ETL verified and tested to comply with ANSI/TIA 568 C.2 CAT6 requirements. They support data transfer speeds up to 1 Gbps and a bandwidth of 250 MHz, ensuring reliable network performance.
What is the jacket rating and why does it matter?
The jacket is rated CMG (Communications Multipurpose Cable), which indicates suitability for general-purpose use in plenum spaces. This PVC jacket provides flexibility, bend resistance, and durability for commercial networking applications.
What warranty comes with these cables?
StarTech.com provides a lifetime limited warranty for this product, covering defects in materials and workmanship. This warranty reflects the durable construction and long-term reliability expected from professional-grade networking cables.
