StarTech Cat6 patch cable for 10 Gbps links

This two-foot yellow Cat6 cord carries 1 2.5 5 and 10 Gbps traffic up to 160 ft at 250 MHz. It uses 24 AWG stranded 100 % copper conductors rated UL E132276-A and supports 100 W PoE for powered devices. Snagless RJ45 plugs protect the latch during repeated inserts.

Passive copper cable runs cool and silent

No active electronics means zero fan noise and no extra power draw beyond the PoE current the link negotiates. The unshielded twisted-pair jacket stays flexible in normal indoor temperatures so routing stays easy.

Fits tight patches between rack gear and wall ports

The short 2 ft length keeps slack out of dense patch panels and desktop runs without needing cable management trays. Snagless boots free adjacent ports from latch interference while the yellow jacket lets you trace the link at a glance.

Questions about this item

How do I plug the snagless RJ45 connectors without breaking the release tab?

Push the connector straight in until the tab clicks into the port; the moulded boot protects the tab so it releases only when you press it, not when you pull the cable.

Will the 24 AWG stranded copper conductors need replacement after repeated bending?

The 100 % copper stranded core is rated for normal patch-cord flexing; no scheduled replacement is required unless the jacket or a connector is physically damaged.

At what distance does the 250 MHz Cat 6 rating stop guaranteeing 10 Gbps throughput?

The cable supports 10 Gbps up to 160 ft; beyond that length the 250 MHz bandwidth can no longer assure the full 10 Gbps rate.
