14 ft Cat6 patch cable

The StarTech N6PATCH14PL is a 14-foot Category 6 Ethernet cable with RJ45 connectors on both ends. Its purple PVC jacket allows quick visual identification in dense patch panels or rack environments. The cable is built with 24 AWG stranded copper conductors and 50-micron gold-plated contacts. It is ETL verified and carries a UL rating for safety compliance.

Upgrade from Cat5e or damaged leads

Replacing older Cat5e cables with this Cat6 link enables multi-gigabit speeds of 2.5 and 5 Gbps and supports 10 Gbps runs up to 160 feet. The jump is worth it when network gear has been updated to 2.5G or faster ports but the cabling has not followed. Snagless connector-clip protectors and molded boots prevent the tab breakage that often forces premature cable swaps.

Sustained throughput on long runs

At the full 14-foot length the 250 MHz bandwidth and 100% copper construction maintain signal integrity for continuous 10 Gbps traffic. The 100 W Power over Ethernet rating means the conductors handle both data and power loads without excessive heating during extended PoE+ or PoE++ sessions. Stranded wire construction preserves performance when the cable is routed around corners or through cable-management trays.

Questions about this item

What length and connector type does this Cat6 cable use for a standard network jack?

The cable is 14 ft long and has RJ45 connectors on both ends, matching standard Ethernet ports on routers, switches and PCs.

How do the snagless boots affect the way I plug the cable into a crowded patch panel?

The molded RJ45 connectors include clip protectors that stop the latch from catching on adjacent cables, so you can insert and remove the cord without breaking the tab.

What part of the cable wears first and how is it protected for PoE use?

The RJ45 contacts are 50-micron gold plated to resist corrosion, and the 24 AWG stranded copper conductors are rated for 100 W PoE, reducing heat buildup during long-term power delivery.
