STARTECH

STARTECH N6PAT20ORS 20ft Orange Slim CAT6 network ethernet cable

SKU CH-E2S5-GSH50 MPN N6PAT20ORS

Slim 20-foot Cat6 patch cable supports 10 Gbps and 100 W PoE++ with 36 % thinner 28 AWG LSZH jacket for dense installs

  • Slim 3.6mm diameter improves airflow in crowded racks
  • 10 Gbps throughput with 250 MHz bandwidth for fast networks
  • 100 W PoE++ powers cameras and access points directly
  • 50-micron gold contacts and 28 AWG copper ensure reliable signals
  • LSZH jacket meets ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 and IEEE 802.3bt Type 4 safety standards

What this cable is and who it suits

The StarTech N6PAT20ORS is a 20‑foot orange slim Cat6 patch cable built for crowded network closets and high‑density patch panels. Its 3.6 mm diameter is 36 % slimmer than standard Cat6, improving airflow and making cable management easier in tight spaces. It supports 10 Gbps data rates at 250 MHz and delivers up to 100 W PoE++ for devices such as IP cameras or boardroom displays. The LSZH jacket emits low toxic fumes if combusted, meeting safety needs in poorly ventilated areas.

Check before ordering

Verify that your switch, router or patch panel has standard RJ45 ports compatible with snagless 50‑micron gold‑plated connectors. Ensure the 20‑foot length reaches between your devices without excessive slack or tension. Confirm your equipment supports Cat6 performance up to 250 MHz and, if you need 100 W PoE++, that the connected devices and power‑sourcing equipment comply with IEEE 802.3bt Type 4. The LSZH jacket is required for plenum or enclosed‑space installations where low‑smoke zero‑halogen rating is mandated.

How it fits into a build

The slim 28 AWG bare‑copper conductors and flexible LSZH jacket allow tight bends around cable trays and through dense panels, freeing space for additional runs and improving airflow between active gear. Gold‑plated contacts reduce signal loss and resist corrosion for reliable long‑term connections. Fluke‑tested quality and ANSI/TIA‑568‑C.2 compliance guarantee Cat6 performance, so the cable integrates cleanly into structured‑cabling systems without needing special tools or adapters.

Questions about this item

Does the box include only the 20 ft orange cable or are wall plates or keystones also supplied?

Only the single 20 ft orange CAT6 patch cable is supplied; wall plates, keystones or couplers are separate purchases.

How do I choose between the 20 ft orange cable and other lengths or colours?

Select this 20 ft orange version when you need exactly that length and colour for patch-panel identification; other lengths and colours carry different part numbers.

What does the 10 Gbps headline figure mean once the cable is installed in a rack?

The cable is rated for 10 Gbps at 250 MHz over 20 ft with 28 AWG bare copper, gold-plated contacts and LSZH jacket, so it delivers full Cat6 throughput in dense, high-temperature cabinets.
