Short cable for tight patches

The StarTech.com N6LPATCH6INBK is a 6 in Category 6 patch cord built with 100 percent copper conductors. It suits installers who need a minimal-length link between a switch port and a patch panel or between two rack-mounted devices. The LSZH jacket reduces toxic smoke if the cable is ever exposed to fire.

Push-tab connectors snap in

Each end carries an RJ45 plug with a snagless boot and strain relief that protects the latch during repeated insertions. The 24 AWG stranded conductors keep the cord flexible enough to route through crowded cable managers without kinking. A common issue is forgetting that the boot adds a few millimetres of depth, which can block adjacent ports on high-density panels.

Verify reach before ordering

Measure the exact distance between the two RJ45 ports you intend to connect; six inches leaves no slack for cable management loops. Confirm that both devices use standard RJ45 jacks and that the installation environment allows LSZH cable. The cord supports Power over Ethernet up to 100 W, so it can carry power to compatible access points or cameras.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the cable is delivering 10 Gbps after connecting it?

Check the link speed in your OS network settings or switch port LEDs; a negotiated 10 Gbps link confirms the 650 MHz Cat 6 cable is operating at its rated 10GbE capability.

What comes with the N6LPATCH6INBK and do I need anything else?

The box contains only the 6 in LSZH Cat 6 patch cord with RJ45 connectors on both ends; no extra adapters or tools are required for a standard Ethernet connection.

Which version should I choose for a 100 W PoE++ run under 55 m?

This single 6 in black Cat 6 model is rated for 100 W PoE++ and supports 10 Gbps up to 55 m, so it fits that requirement directly.
