Carry 10 Gbps Ethernet links and up to 100 W PoE over a 100 ft copper run for access points, IP cameras, LED signage, and other RJ45 network endpoints. StarTech CAT6UTP100FTRD combines Cat6 UTP construction with stranded 24 AWG pure bare-copper conductors to support consistent signaling across a flexible patch-cable connection. The red jacket provides a visible cable-color option for identifying endpoint runs in a wiring area, rack, or equipment room. Snagless RJ45 connectors help protect the retention tabs while cables are routed through cable managers or moved between ports. Gold-plated contacts provide the connection surface at each end, while the 6.0 mm outside diameter supports routing where a full-size bulk-cable assembly would be impractical. This cable is channel tested with a Fluke DSX-8000, providing a documented test method for its installed-channel use. The CM-rated PVC jacket is intended for general installations rather than plenum spaces. Its 100 ft length distinguishes this variant for longer endpoint connections that exceed common equipment-rack patching distances, while retaining standard RJ45 termination for direct connection to Ethernet switch ports, wall outlets, patch panels, and powered network devices. Use it where the path requires Cat6 copper connectivity and PoE support without adding couplers or extending shorter patch cords.
