StarTech 12 ft Purple Cat6 Cable

This 12 ft purple Cat6 patch cable from StarTech.com provides a wired network link for desktops, laptops, switches and routers. The RJ45 connectors on both ends are gold-plated for reliable contact and the snagless boots protect the locking tabs during installation or removal.

Verify RJ45 Ports And Length Before Ordering

Ensure each device you plan to connect has a standard RJ45 Ethernet port. Confirm that a 12 ft run is sufficient for the distance between your equipment and the wall jack or switch. The CMG fire rating covers general-purpose indoor routing but does not qualify the cable for plenum spaces.

Snagless Design And Gold Contacts Aid Installation

The snagless moulded boots prevent the connector tabs from catching on adjacent cables, making routing through tight cable management channels easier. Gold plating on the connector pins resists oxidation to maintain signal integrity over time. The PVC jacket and 24 AWG stranded copper conductors deliver flexibility for desktop patching.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box with the StarTech N6PATCH12PL cable?

The box contains the 12 ft purple Cat6 patch cable with snagless RJ45 connectors on both ends. No additional accessories or tools are included.

Which length should I choose for a typical desk-to-switch run?

The 12 ft length suits most desk-to-switch or patch-panel connections. If the route requires extra slack or runs along baseboards, measure the path first.

What does the 250 MHz rating mean for actual network speed?

The 250 MHz bandwidth supports 1, 2.5, 5 and 10 Gbps speeds up to 160 ft, so the 12 ft cable will handle multi-gigabit and 10G links without loss.
