6 ft Cat6 LSZH patch cord

This StarTech.com N6LPATCH6GR is a six-foot Category 6 network cable with RJ45 connectors on both ends. It uses 24 AWG stranded copper conductors and a low-smoke zero-halogen jacket for safer indoor routing. The cord supports multi-gigabit speeds up to 10 Gbps at distances up to 55 metres. It is rated for 650 MHz bandwidth and complies with ANSI/TIA-568-2.D.

Replaces older Cat5e or damaged Cat6 runs

Upgrade when existing cables limit throughput to one gigabit or when jacket material must meet low-smoke requirements. The 100 W PoE++ rating also makes the jump worthwhile for high-power access points or cameras. Snagless boots and 50-micron gold-plated pins improve durability over basic patch cords.

Check connector spacing and cable path length

Verify that six feet reaches between your switch, router, or wall jack and the target device without tension. Ensure the equipment ports accept standard RJ45 plugs and that the LSZH jacket meets any local building-code requirements for plenum or riser spaces.

Questions about this item

What clearance does the 6 ft LSZH Cat6 cable with snagless strain relief need at the RJ45 ends?

The snagless boots add a few millimetres beyond the RJ45 body, so allow roughly 25 mm straight back from the port for the strain-relief moulding to sit without bending the 24 AWG conductors.

Which wiring scheme should I follow when punching this cable into a keystone or patch panel?

The cable is built to ANSI/TIA-568-B wiring; terminate each end to the T568-B colour code so the 4-pair U/UTP pairs stay in spec for 10 GbE up to 55 m.

When should I replace this PVC-free EVA-jacketed patch cord in a PoE++ deployment?

Inspect the 50-micron gold-plated pins and LSZH jacket annually; replace the cord if the contacts show corrosion, the jacket cracks, or the cable fails a 650 MHz certification test.
