The StarTech.com C6PATCH20YL is a 20-foot yellow Category 6 (Cat6) Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) patch cable designed for reliable Gigabit network connections. This cable supports data transfer rates up to 10 Gbit/s and is suitable for multi-gigabit applications including 1/2.5/5Gbps. It features 24 AWG copper wire, enabling support for Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications up to 100W, which is beneficial for powering VoIP phones, security cameras, and other network devices. The cable is constructed with molded PVC strain relief to protect the RJ45 connector termination points from damage due to bending, contributing to consistent network performance. Its 50-micron gold connectors are designed to maintain optimal conductivity and resist signal loss from oxidation or corrosion. The yellow PVC jacket allows for color-coding network cable runs, aiding in organization and troubleshooting within IT infrastructure. This cable is appropriate for businesses requiring dependable network connectivity for workstations, hubs, distribution panels, and wall outlets.
To ensure long-lasting performance, this high quality Cat 6 patch cable features molded PVC strain relief that prevents the RJ45 connector termination points from bending at sharp angles - reducing the risk of cable damage, which could decrease network performance.
Constructed of only top quality materials, this Gigabit Patch Cable delivers reliable performance and is backed by our Lifetime Warranty.
100% Copper - a better value
StarTech.com Cat6 cables are manufactured using high-quality copper conductors. While many cable manufacturers offer a ""cheaper"" cable, based on a copper-coated aluminum core, we make no compromises on quality to ensure you receive top value and performance for your network cable investment.
24 AWG Wire
This Cat6 cable is constructed with 24 gauge copper wire, to support a broad range of Ethernet applications such as Power over Ethernet (PoE). Because we use a high quality copper wire, our cables easily sustain the power required for Power over Ethernet applications, whereas the inferior quality offered by copper-coated aluminum cables may be subject to insufficient power delivery, heat buildup, equipment damage and potentially, fire.
50-micron Gold Connectors
This molded patch cable offers high quality connectors comprised of 50-micron gold, to deliver optimum conductivity while eliminating signal loss due to oxidation or corrosion.
This Cat6 cable supports multi-gigabit data transfer rates, including 1/2.5/5Gbps, and up to 10 Gbit/s. It is designed to meet or exceed all Category 6 cable specifications for reliable network connections.
Yes, this Cat6 cable is constructed with 24 AWG copper wire, which supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications up to 100W. This allows it to sustain the power required for various PoE-enabled devices.
This cable features male RJ-45 network connectors on both ends. The connectors are comprised of 50-micron gold for optimum conductivity and to help eliminate signal loss due to oxidation or corrosion.
The molded PVC strain relief on this patch cable prevents the RJ45 connector termination points from bending at sharp angles. This design feature reduces the risk of cable damage, which could otherwise decrease network performance.
