StarTech.com 5ft Cat6 Ethernet Patch Cable - Blue Snagless Gigabit Network Cable with 24 AWG Copper and PoE Support

StarTech 5ft CAT6 Ethernet Cable - Blue Snagless Gigabit - 100W PoE UTP 250Mhz Category 6 Patch Cord UL Certified Wiring/TIA

The StarTech.com N6PATCH5BL is a high-performance 5-foot Cat6 Ethernet cable designed for reliable Gigabit network connections in demanding environments. Featuring a durable blue PVC jacket, this cable is ideal for color coding and easy identification within complex wiring setups. Its construction adheres to all Category 6 standards, supporting up to 250 MHz bandwidth, which ensures error-free data transfer at speeds of 1/2.5/5 Gbps, and up to 10 Gbps over shorter runs. This makes it suitable for high-speed applications such as streaming, large data transfers, and Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) devices like VoIP phones and security systems. The cable’s 100% copper conductors and UL-rated wiring guarantee high-quality, error-free transmission with minimal signal loss. The 24 AWG copper wire provides the necessary power and performance for PoE applications, supporting up to 100W, while the 50-micron gold-plated connectors offer peak conductivity and resistance to oxidation, ensuring long-term reliability. The snagless RJ45 connectors feature molded boots that protect against damage during installation and disconnection, especially in tight spaces. These boots also prevent the RJ45 clips from snagging or breaking, maintaining a secure connection over time. Additionally, the cable’s high-quality PVC jacket resists bending and fraying, reducing maintenance and replacement costs. Compatible with earlier Ethernet standards like Cat5e, this cable is easy to install and suitable for a variety of networking environments, whether for office setups or server rooms. Backed by a lifetime warranty, the StarTech.com Cat6 Patch Cable offers a combination of durability, high performance, and ease of use, making it an excellent choice for professional networking applications.
