Slim Cat6 Patch Cable

The StarTech N6PAT7PLS is a seven-foot purple Ethernet cable built to the Cat6 performance level. Its 28 AWG bare-copper conductors and unshielded twisted-pair construction support 10 Gbps data rates and 100 W Power over Ethernet. A low-smoke zero-halogen jacket and gold-plated RJ45 contacts complete the specification.

Installers Needing Density Not Rugged Armour

The 36 percent slimmer profile eases routing through packed racks, tight cable managers and narrow trunking where standard cords snag or block airflow. Snagless boots protect the latch during frequent moves. Buyers who need shielded construction, outdoor-rated jackets or longer runs should look at something else.

Fits High-Density Patch Panels And PoE Devices

The thin LSZH jacket frees space in 1 U panels and improves cooling around active gear such as access points or IP cameras drawing up to 100 W. Male RJ45 plugs on both ends connect directly to switches, servers or wall ports without adapters. Pure copper conductors keep near-end crosstalk and return loss low for reliable link stability.

Questions about this item

What devices need RJ45 ports to use this 7 ft CAT6 cable?

Any switch, router, patch panel or network card with standard RJ45 jacks will connect directly to the male plugs on both ends.

Can the 28 AWG conductors handle the same 10 Gbps and 100 W PoE as thicker CAT6 cables I already own?

Yes, the bare copper wires are rated for 10 Gbps throughput and 100 W power delivery despite the slimmer gauge.

How can I confirm the cable is delivering CAT6 performance after I plug it in?

Check the link speed on your switch or NIC; a negotiated 10 Gbps or 1 Gbps connection with low error counters shows the cable meets CAT6 spec.
