run connectivity

The StarTech N6PATCH2WH is a 2 ft Cat6 patch cable built for tight indoor runs between a switch, router or patch panel and a desktop, laptop or access point. Its white PVC jacket keeps the link visible in dense racks or under desks while the 24 AWG stranded copper conductors stay flexible for repeated re-seating.

Passive thermal profile

The unshielded twisted-pair design carries data without active cooling, so the cable adds no heat or noise to the installation. Rated for 100 W Power over Ethernet, it delivers full PoE+ current without measurable temperature rise in normal office or home use.

Snagless gold-plated RJ45

Each end uses a snagless boot that protects the latch during pulls through cable managers or floor ducts. Gold-plated contacts resist oxidation over many mating cycles, and the CMG fire rating allows general-purpose in-wall routing where local code permits.

Questions about this item

How do I install the RJ45 connectors without damaging the snagless boots?

Align the tab with the port notch and press straight in until the connector clicks; forcing it at an angle bends the protective boot and can break the latch.

What maintenance or replacement will the 24 AWG stranded copper conductors need over time?

Inspect the jacket for kinks or crushed sections after moves; if the PVC shows whitening or the gold-plated pins look dull, replace the cable to keep PoE and 10Gbps performance reliable.

At what distance does the 500 MHz Cat6 rating limit 10Gbps throughput under sustained load?

The cable supports 10Gbps up to 160 ft; beyond that length the 500 MHz bandwidth drops off and speeds fall back to 2.5 or 5Gbps.
