StarTech N6PATCH6INYL 6in Yellow Cat6 Ethernet Cable
Overview
The StarTech N6PATCH6INYL is a 6-inch yellow Category 6 Ethernet patch cable designed for high-speed network connections. Its short length minimizes cable clutter in dense rack environments, making it ideal for connecting network devices like switches, servers, and workstations where precise, short runs are needed. This cable supports multi-gigabit speeds up to 10Gbps over distances up to 160 feet, ensuring your network infrastructure can handle demanding data throughput for applications like video surveillance recording and high-performance computing.
Compatibility
This cable is compatible with any network device featuring standard RJ-45 Ethernet ports. It supports data rates of 1Gbps, 2.5Gbps, 5Gbps, and 10Gbps, making it suitable for modern multi-gigabit networking infrastructure. It also supports 100W Power over Ethernet (PoE), allowing it to carry both data and power to compatible devices such as IP cameras, wireless access points, and VoIP phones without requiring separate power supplies. The T568B wiring standard ensures broad compatibility with most network installations.
Installation Notes
Constructed with 24 AWG stranded copper conductors, this cable offers flexibility and durability for frequent handling. The CMG-rated PVC jacket provides a fire rating suitable for use in walls and between floors in commercial buildings. The operating temperature range of -20°C to 80°C (-4°F to 176°F) allows for deployment in a variety of environmental conditions. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors ensure reliable signal transmission with minimal resistance.
