Yes, you can use a Cat 6 cable with a standard RJ45 connector.

It depends on the gauge of the cable whether you need a standard RJ45 connector or one designed for a larger size. Also verify if the cable is braided or solid; these differ in the RJ45 connectors they use.

I spent five years handling IT cables and never encountered anything related to this.

You'll need the RJ45 designed for this setup. The cables will be spaced out because they're too bulky to run side by side. Many will work with stranded and solid wires. Most setups use AWG24 cabling, with rare exceptions of AWG23 or larger. Once the wires get too thick to fit together, you'll see less need for them. Based on my experience over 30 years, I can estimate the number of times I've used AWG23 connectors—just one hand counts. For solid and stranded types, the connectors tend to be more universal.

It functioned properly, even though I haven’t installed a gigabit switch yet; my previous 100Mbit/s switch displayed a connection speed of 100Mb/s.

The color code you referenced appears to be a mix of hex and RGB values. From the description, it seems to involve shades like green, white, orange, brown, and blue tones. The 100Mbit works but 1GB may face challenges due to the specified format.
