User Manual
FAQ
What is the maximum data transfer speed supported by this Cat6 cable?
This StarTech.com Cat6 patch cable supports data transfer rates up to 10 Gbit/s (10Gb/s). It maintains this speed across its entire 75-foot length and can support 10Gb/s connections up to 160 feet when deployed in appropriate network configurations. The cable's 650MHz rating and compliance with ANSI/TIA-568-2.D Category 6 standards ensure reliable high-speed performance for demanding network applications.
Does this Ethernet cable support Power over Ethernet (PoE)?
Yes, this Cat6 patch cable fully supports Power over Ethernet up to 100W. It features 24 AWG stranded copper conductors with UL Rated Wiring (E132276-A) that complies with IEEE 802.3bt and DTE power standards. This makes it suitable for powering PoE devices like VoIP phones, security cameras, wireless access points, and other network equipment while simultaneously transmitting data.
What type of connectors does this patch cable have?
This cable has RJ-45 network connectors on both ends, both with male connectors. The connectors feature 50-micron gold plating that prevents rust and corrosion, ensuring reliable connections over time. The snagless molded boots provide strain relief and prevent the cable from catching on other components during installation in crowded network cabinets or wiring conduits.
Is this cable shielded or unshielded?
This is an unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable. It does not have additional shielding layers, which makes it more flexible and easier to install in most environments. The cable utilizes minimized near-end crosstalk (NEXT) design and high-quality construction to maintain signal integrity without shielding, making it suitable for typical office and commercial networking applications where electromagnetic interference is not a significant concern.
What is the jacket rating and why does it matter?
This cable features a CMG-rated PVC jacket. CMG indicates the jacket meets specific flame-retardant requirements for use in plenum spaces (air handling areas) in commercial buildings. This rating ensures the cable can be installed in ceilings, raised floors, and other air circulation spaces where building codes require plenum-rated cabling for safety. The PVC material also provides durability against bending, fraying, and environmental factors.
Is this Cat6 cable backward compatible with older network standards?
Yes, this Cat6 patch cable is fully backward compatible with Cat5e and earlier Ethernet standards. You can use it to connect devices that only support lower speeds while maintaining the capability to upgrade to higher speeds in the future. The cable will automatically negotiate to the highest speed supported by both connected devices, making it a future-proof investment for network infrastructure upgrades.
