Ideal for short rack links

This 1‑foot Cat6 patch cable is built for tight in‑rack and cross‑rack connections between switches, servers and patch panels. The short length keeps cable management clean in dense server closets and eliminates excess slack that can block airflow.

Cat6 bandwidth ceiling

The Category 6 rating supports Multi‑Gigabit speeds of 1, 2.5, 5 and 10 Gbps up to 160 ft with a 250 MHz bandwidth. Performance beyond those limits or over longer runs is not guaranteed by this cable.

Snagless moulded boots

RJ45 connectors feature snagless clips that resist catching during insertion or removal, while moulded boots provide strain relief to prevent sharp bends at the termination points. The 24 AWG stranded 100 % copper conductors are UL rated (E132276‑A) and support 100 W PoE for powered devices.

Questions about this item

How do I pick the right length and color for my rack?

This cable is a one-foot blue Cat6 patch cord; StarTech offers the same spec in other lengths and colors so you can match exact run distances and color-code connections.

What speed will I actually see on a 10GbE port with this 1 ft cable?

The cable is rated for 10Gbps up to 160ft at 250MHz, so a one-foot run will carry full 10GbE line rate without bottleneck.

Does the RJ45 connector support 100W PoE and fit standard ports?

Yes — 24AWG 100% copper conductors are UL rated for 100W PoE, and the snagless RJ45 plugs mate with any standard Ethernet jack.
