Ready-to-use Cat 6 patch cable

The STARTECH C6PATCH6BK is a pre-terminated Cat 6 patch cable built with 24 AWG stranded copper conductors and a black PVC jacket. It is designed for installers and network managers who need a reliable Gigabit link without field termination. The six-foot length suits typical rack-to-device runs in offices or home labs.

Molded strain relief and color-coded hoods

Molded PVC strain relief protects each RJ45 termination from sharp bends that can degrade signal integrity over time. Colored connector hoods allow quick visual sorting by department or function, simplifying cable management in dense panels. The cable supports 100W PoE for powered devices such as access points or cameras.

Verify port speed and PoE budget

Confirm that both endpoints negotiate at least 1Gbps and that the switch port can deliver the required PoE class for the attached device. The 160ft 10Gbps rating applies only to shorter runs; at six feet the link will operate well within Cat 6 limits. Ensure the patch panel or keystone accepts standard RJ45 plugs.

Questions about this item

Will the RJ45 connectors or strain relief need replacement after repeated plugging?

Molded PVC strain relief protects the RJ45 termination points from sharp bends, reducing cable damage risk during regular use.

At what length does the 10Gbps capability drop below specification?

The cable supports 10Gbps up to 160ft, so the 6ft length is well within that limit.

Does the 24 AWG copper construction handle 100W PoE without overheating in continuous operation?

24 AWG 100% copper wire is rated for 100W PoE and ETL verified, supporting sustained power delivery.
