StarTech 4 ft Red Cat6 Patch Cable

This Cat6 cable delivers reliable Gigabit network connections with PoE support for demanding Ethernet applications. The 4-foot red patch cable suits standard connections such as a wall jack to a laptop docking station or desktop computer. Snagless RJ45 clips protect connectors during installation and reduce the risk of snagging or breakage. Molded boots provide strain relief by preventing sharp bends at termination points.

Snagless RJ45 connectors with gold plating

Snagless clips shield the RJ45 tabs from catching or breaking while routing the cable through tight spaces. Gold-plated contacts resist corrosion and maintain consistent signal quality over time. The PVC jacket adds durability for general-purpose indoor use. These features combine to protect the physical link and preserve network performance.

CMG fire-rated 4-pair copper construction

The cable is CMG rated for general-purpose in-wall installation and uses 100 percent copper conductors across four twisted pairs. This construction meets Cat6 specifications for Gigabit Ethernet and Power over Ethernet. Buyers who need plenum-rated cable for air-handling spaces should select a different fire rating. Those requiring longer runs beyond 4 feet must choose another length.

Questions about this item

Will the snagless RJ45 connectors or gold plating need replacement over time?

The snagless RJ45 clips protect the connectors from breaking during installation, and the gold-plated contacts resist corrosion for long-term reliability.

What limits performance first during continuous Gigabit Ethernet and PoE use?

The Cat6 rating supports up to 100 metres for Gigabit speeds, so the 4-foot length is well within the distance limit for sustained throughput.

Does the cable produce heat or draw extra power when running PoE devices all day?

The cable carries PoE power to connected devices without adding its own heat or electrical draw beyond the normal load of the powered equipment.
