STARTECH N6PATCH9YL network ethernet cable Cat6 9 ft Yellow 24 AWG

Cat6 9 ft patch cable for Gigabit and PoE

This nine-foot Category 6 cable is built with 24 AWG stranded copper conductors and RJ-45 male connectors at each end. It supports multi-gigabit speeds of 1, 2.5, 5 and 10 Gbps at distances up to 160 ft and carries 100 W Power over Ethernet. The yellow jacket makes it easy to identify in crowded racks or under desks.

Check connector type and run length before ordering

Ensure the target devices use standard RJ-45 ports and that a nine-foot reach is sufficient between them. The cable is unshielded UTP, so verify the installation environment does not require shielded cabling for electromagnetic interference protection. Confirm the 250 MHz bandwidth rating meets the performance tier required by the network design.

Snagless boots protect tabs during routing

The snagless moulded boots prevent the locking tabs from catching on adjacent cables when pulling through cable management channels or tight spaces. UL-rated wiring (E132276-A) satisfies typical building-code requirements for in-wall or plenum-adjacent runs. As a passive patch cord it needs no external power and frees up switch ports by providing a direct device-to-device or device-to-panel link.
