Description

StarTech C6PATCH3YL 3ft Yellow Cat6 Ethernet Cable

Overview

The StarTech C6PATCH3YL is a 3-foot, yellow Category 6 Ethernet patch cable designed to deliver reliable network connectivity for multi-gigabit speeds up to 10Gbps. Its construction supports high-bandwidth applications, including surveillance systems, data centers, and enterprise networks requiring stable, high-performance connections. The 24 AWG stranded copper conductors ensure flexibility and durability, while the 50-micron gold-plated RJ-45 connectors provide superior signal integrity and corrosion resistance. This cable is rated for 250 MHz, meeting Cat6 standards for data transmission.

Compatibility

This cable is compatible with all standard networking equipment utilizing RJ-45 connectors, including network switches, routers, servers, workstations, and IP cameras. It supports data rates of 1/2.5/5Gbps and 10Gbps, making it suitable for high-speed network infrastructure. The cable also supports 100W Power over Ethernet (PoE), ensuring it can power compatible devices like IP cameras or wireless access points without requiring a separate power supply, provided the connected switch or injector meets the PoE standard.

Installation Notes

The 24 AWG stranded copper construction offers good flexibility for routing in tight spaces. The PVC jacket provides adequate protection for indoor environments. For optimal performance and to maintain the 10Gbps rating, ensure connections are made to compatible Cat6 or higher-rated network infrastructure.
