## Long description

The StarTech.com 5m CAT6 Ethernet Cable (N6PATC5MRD) is a 5 meter red Cat6 patch cable designed for Gigabit networks and Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) applications. It uses U/UTP cabling technology and RJ-45 connectors with 50-micron gold plating to reduce oxidation and maintain reliable connectivity. The cable is constructed with 24 AWG copper conductors and a molded PVC jacket with strain relief for durable, long-lasting performance.
Advantages
This Cat6 Ethernet cable meets or exceeds Category 6 specifications and provides a Gigabit-capable connection up to 1000 Mbit/s. The snagless design protects the RJ45 connector clips during routing and installation, while molded PVC strain relief prevents bending at the termination points. The red PVC jacket allows color-coding of cable runs and the 100% copper, 24 AWG conductors deliver consistent electrical performance. Connectors feature 50-micron gold plating to improve conductivity and resist corrosion. The product is UL certified and backed by a manufacturer lifetime warranty.
Suitable for
Gigabit Ethernet networks (10/100/1000Base-T)
Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) devices such as IP phones, wireless access points and cameras
Color-coded horizontal and patch panel cable runs in offices and data closets
General-purpose network patching between switches, routers and networked devices

How to use
Plug each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding network ports on your devices or patch panel. Route the cable using cable management and avoid sharp bends; the molded strain relief helps protect the termination, but maintaining gentle bend radii preserves performance. Use the red jacket to identify and separate specific network segments during installation. The cable supports PoE devices when connected to a PoE-capable switch or injector.
Usage recommendations
For optimal performance, keep cable runs within standard Cat6 distance limits and avoid running Ethernet cables parallel to high-voltage power lines to reduce interference. Test connections after installation using network testing tools appropriate for Cat6 cabling. Replace any cable that shows visible damage to the jacket or connectors.
