Ethernet Cable StarTech.com N6PATCH50GN 50ft CAT6 Green

Ethernet Cable StarTech.com N6PATCH50GN 50ft CAT6 Green is a 15.2 m Cat6 patch cable designed for Gigabit Ethernet and Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) applications. The cable uses 24 AWG solid copper conductors and provides gold-plated RJ45 connectors for reliable signal transmission. The green PVC jacket enables color coding of cable runs and the cable is UL certified.

Advantages

This Cat6 cable is constructed with 100% copper 24 AWG wires to ensure stable power delivery for PoE and minimize heat buildup compared with copper-clad alternatives. The snagless design protects the RJ45 connector clips during installation and the molded PVC strain relief reduces stress at the connector termination points. 50-micron gold-plated connectors improve conductivity and resist oxidation for long-lasting performance. The cable is backed by the manufacturer’s lifetime warranty.

Suitable for

• Gigabit Ethernet connections (10/100/1000Base-T)
• Power over Ethernet (PoE) deployments, including devices requiring up to 100W
• Cable runs that benefit from color-coding for easy identification

Key specifications

• Length: 15.2 m (50 ft)
• Cable category: Cat6 (U/UTP)
• Conductor: 24 AWG, 100% copper
• Connectors: RJ-45 to RJ-45, 50‑micron gold plated
• Colour: Green
• Supported speeds: up to 1 Gbit/s (1000 Mbit/s)
• Standards: 10/100/1000Base-T(X)
• Weight: 0.616 kg

How to use

Connect one RJ45 connector to a network switch, router or PoE injector and the other end to the target device (PC, IP camera, access point, VoIP phone, etc.). Route the cable while protecting connector clips with the snagless boot and avoid sharp bends at the strain relief to maintain signal integrity. For PoE installations, ensure the power sourcing equipment and powered device comply with the same PoE standard and power budget requirements.

Recommendations

Use this Cat6 cable for in-building Ethernet and PoE links up to 1 Gbit/s. Avoid running the cable parallel to high-voltage power lines for extended distances and keep bend radius and connector strain relief intact to preserve performance and lifetime.
