Connect closely mounted network equipment with a ten-cable pack of 18 in Cat 6 UTP patch leads. StarTech CAT6UTP18INBK10PK supports 10 Gbps Ethernet for short copper connections between switches, patch panels, workstations, storage, and other RJ45-equipped equipment. The short length helps reduce excess slack where equipment is mounted in the same rack, cabinet, desk, or enclosure. Each cable supports up to 100 W Power over Ethernet under IEEE 802.3bt Type 4, allowing the same connection to carry network traffic and power to compatible endpoints. Typical PoE connections include LAN and Wi-Fi access points, IP cameras, and LED signage. Snagless RJ45 connector boots help protect the retaining latch during routing and routine moves, while gold-plated contacts provide the connection interface at both ends. The cable construction uses 24 AWG UTP stranded pure bare copper wire and a 6.0 mm outside diameter. Its black, CM-rated PVC jacket is suited to general in-wall and building installations where CM cable is required. Fluke DSX-8000 Channel testing verifies channel-level transmission performance, making this pack a specific fit where short Cat 6 jumpers, 10 Gbps support, and high-power PoE capability are all required.
