Cable length and rating

The StarTech.com N6PATCH100OR is a 100 ft orange Cat6 UTP patch cable built with 24 AWG stranded copper conductors. It is designed for network connections that require a long horizontal run between a switch, router or patch panel and a workstation or access point.

Suitable installations and limitations

This cable suits installers who need a single 100 ft link with CMG fire rating and snagless boots for easier pulling through conduit or cable trays. Buyers who require a plenum-rated jacket, shielded construction or a different length should look at alternative products.

Decisive specification

The 250 MHz bandwidth rating and Cat6 classification determine whether this cable meets the performance tier required for 2.5 Gbps, 5 Gbps or 10 Gbps links up to the supported distance.

Questions about this item

Does the 100 ft orange Cat6 cable generate noticeable heat or draw extra power during all-day PoE loads?

The cable is passive copper rated for 100 W PoE; it produces no measurable heat and adds no power draw beyond the connected devices.

What equipment must I already have to use the RJ-45 connectors on this patch cord?

You need two devices with standard RJ-45 Ethernet ports — such as a router, switch, PC or PoE injector — wired to the T568B pinout.

Will the 24 AWG stranded conductors and CMG jacket work reliably alongside older Cat5e patch panels and 100 Mb switches?

Yes; the cable meets TIA/EIA-568-B.1-2001 and is backward compatible with Cat5e infrastructure at 100 Mbps and 1 Gbps speeds.
