15 ft Cat6 Orange patch cable

This 15 ft Cat6 UTP patch cable in orange is built for gigabit and multi-gigabit Ethernet links. It suits installers who need a factory-tested, snagless cord for switches, patch panels or wall outlets. The 24 AWG stranded copper conductors are UL rated (E132276-A) and support Power over Ethernet up to 100 W.

Practical limits of Cat6 UTP

The cable is rated at 250 MHz and verified for 1/2.5/5 Gbps and 10 Gbps operation up to 160 ft. At 15 ft it sits well within that distance, so the full 10 Gbps bandwidth is available. Unshielded construction means it is not intended for environments with strong electromagnetic interference where shielded cable would be required.

Capacity and headroom

With 100 W PoE capability the cord can power cameras, access points or VoIP phones without a separate supply. The stranded conductors and molded strain relief tolerate frequent patching and tight bends. It will not suit permanent outdoor runs or plenum spaces that demand a different jacket rating.
