Description

StarTech C6PATCH3BL 3ft Cat6 Ethernet Cable

Overview

This 3-foot blue Cat6 patch cable ensures reliable network connectivity for multi-gigabit environments. It supports data rates up to 10Gbps and is rated for 100W PoE, making it suitable for powering devices like IP cameras, wireless access points, or VoIP phones without needing a separate power supply. The 24 AWG stranded copper construction and 50-micron gold-plated RJ-45 connectors minimize signal loss and ensure consistent performance. Its 3ft length is ideal for short runs between network devices in a rack or workstation setup, reducing cable clutter.

Compatibility

This cable is compatible with any network device utilizing an RJ-45 connector and requiring Cat6 performance. It supports 1/2.5/5Gbps and 10Gbps Ethernet speeds, making it suitable for high-speed networking equipment, including managed switches, routers, and servers. It is also fully backward compatible with 10/100Mbps networks. The T568B wiring standard ensures broad compatibility with most network installations.

Installation Notes

The 24 AWG stranded copper conductors offer flexibility for easy routing in tight spaces. The PVC jacket provides durability for standard indoor installations. Ensure the cable is not subjected to excessive bending or tension to maintain signal integrity and prevent damage to the conductors or connectors.
