Carry 10 Gbps Ethernet traffic and up to 100 W PoE across a 100 ft copper link. StarTech CAT6UTP100FTBK connects Ethernet switches, patch panels, access points, IP cameras, LED signage, and other RJ45-equipped network endpoints using Cat6 UTP cabling. Its black outer jacket helps distinguish the cable from separately color-coded runs in an installation. The cable uses 24 AWG stranded pure bare-copper conductors for flexible patching and consistent signaling. A 6.0 mm outside diameter provides a defined cable profile for pathway planning, while the CM-rated PVC jacket is intended for general installations. Gold-plated RJ45 contacts support dependable connector contact, and snagless connector boots help protect the locking tabs during moves, adds, and changes. Support for IEEE 802.3bt Type 4 PoE makes this cable suitable for powered endpoints that need both network connectivity and higher-power delivery through the same link. It has been Fluke DSX-8000 Channel tested, providing a channel-test reference for the completed cable assembly. Within the Cat6 patch-cable range, this version combines a 100 ft length, black color, stranded conductors, and snagless RJ45 terminations for longer equipment-room, ceiling-space, and endpoint runs.
