STARTECH N6PAT2RDS 2ft Red CAT6 Network Ethernet Cable

Compact 2ft red Cat6 patch cord

This 2ft red Cat6 Ethernet cable uses 28AWG bare copper wire in an unshielded twisted pair construction. It is built for gigabit speeds and 100W Power over Ethernet in tight spaces. The slim UTP design fits dense racks, wall plates and patch panels where standard cables are too bulky. It targets installers and home users who need a short, flexible link for switches, routers or PoE devices.

Check connector spacing and cable routing

Verify that the 2ft length reaches between your two RJ45 ports without tension. The cable carries male RJ45 plugs on both ends, so each device must present a standard female jack. Confirm the equipment supports Cat6 performance and the PoE class you intend to use. Ensure the pathway allows the slim profile to bend cleanly around corners or through cable management rings.

Snagless boots and LSZH jacket for daily handling

Gold-plated contacts resist corrosion over repeated insertions. Snagless moulded boots protect the release tabs when pulling the cord through crowded trays. The low-smoke zero-halogen jacket meets LSZH safety requirements and stays flexible in confined routing. At 36% slimmer than typical Cat6 cables, it improves airflow in packed cabinets and reduces near-end crosstalk and return loss.
