StarTech.com, 1 m Cat6 Ethernet Cable, White, Unshielded 4 Unscreened Polyvinyl Chloride Sheath

StarTech.com Cat6 Ethernet Cable, 1 m - N6PATC1MWH

Enjoy high transmission speeds and seamless connectivity with this Cat6 ethernet cable from StarTech.com. This essential component has two ends terminated with male RJ45 connectors that link network devices like switches and routers to computers. It's capable of transmitting data at Gigabit speeds, making it ideal for use on high-speed networks in commercial settings.

Features and Benefits

• VersatilityThe plug and port of the Cat6 cable are the same as those of Cat5 and Cat5e cables. This means it's backwards-compatible with earlier versions for increased versatility.
• ReliabilityThis cable features high-quality, 100% copper conductors for minimal resistance and reduced near-end crosstalk (NEXT), boosting reliability during data transfer.

Applications

• Unshielded twisted pair (UTP) type to reduce the need for shielding and minimise bulk
• PVC (polyvinyl chloride) outer sheath for durability and corrosion resistance
• Lifetime warranty to ensure long-lasting performance
• Corrosion-resistant and highly conductive gold connectors for a reliable connection

FAQs

• This cat6 features 24 AWG sized copper wires, which allow less resistance when carrying signals. It also produces less heat than other sizes and these two characteristics combined make it a perfect match for its 1m length. Using high-quality 100% copper conductors in this cat6 cable not only means that it's excellent value for investment, but it also specifically helps to reduce near end cross talk noise (NEXT), which boosts reliability in transferring data.

Is this cable simple to install?To install the cable, simply plug it into the compatible ports on your device. It offers snagless protection thanks to the connector clip protectors on each end, minimising the risk of breaking the RJ45 connectors during installation.

Gold Connectors

• Even better is that StarTech.com use 50-micron thick gold connectors to support the longevity of the cable. By using the thickest gold plating available, the network cable maintains a fast and reliable connection over a longer period of time, withstanding up to x4 as much throughput as a standard metal connector. The RJ45 connectors also eliminate signal loss due to corrosion.

This patch cable houses the wires in a durable white PVC jacket. For peace of mind, StarTech provide a lifetime warranty with all their cables.

Applications

• Use with Gigabit networks and connect PoE-enabled devices
• Patches one device to another, e.g. a hub to distribution panel
• Connects workstations via a wall outlet
