50 ft Cat6 patch cable

The StarTech.com N6PATCH50OR is a 50 foot Cat6 UTP patch cord built with 24 AWG stranded copper conductors and gold-plated RJ45 connectors. It is designed for reliable 1 Gbps Ethernet links and supports Power over Ethernet up to 100 W. The orange jacket and snagless boots help with cable identification and easy routing.

Suited for gigabit PoE runs

This cable suits installers who need a verified 50 foot link for 1 Gbps networks, PoE devices or colour-coded patching. It is not for buyers who require shielded construction, outdoor-rated jackets or lengths beyond the supplied 50 feet.

Handles 1 Gbps and 100 W PoE

The 250 MHz rated cable comfortably carries 1 Gbps traffic and 100 W PoE across the full 50 foot span. It also supports multi-gigabit speeds up to 10 Gbps at distances up to 160 ft. Performance drops off beyond the specified frequency and length limits.

Questions about this item

What network speed does the cable need to support at the other end to reach 10 Gbps over 160 ft?

The connected switch or network card must be rated for 10 Gbps; the cable itself is tested to 250 MHz and supports 10 Gbps up to 160 ft.

Will this Cat6 cable work if I plug it into my older Cat5e patch panel?

Yes, it is backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat6 applications, so it will connect to a Cat5e panel at Cat5e speeds.

How can I verify the cable is delivering the rated performance after I install it?

Run a cable certifier or a network tester that measures Near End Crosstalk and confirms the link negotiates at the expected Gigabit or Multi-Gigabit speed.
