Description

StarTech N6PATCH100BK 100ft Cat6 Ethernet Cable

Overview

The StarTech N6PATCH100BK is a 100-foot, black Category 6 Ethernet cable designed for reliable network connectivity in demanding environments. It supports multi-gigabit speeds up to 10Gbps, making it suitable for high-bandwidth applications like surveillance camera streams, VMS, and network-attached storage. The cable is also rated to deliver up to 100W of Power over Ethernet (PoE), simplifying deployments by eliminating the need for separate power supplies for compatible devices.

Compatibility

This cable is compatible with any network device requiring a standard RJ-45 Ethernet connection, including but not limited to: IP cameras, network video recorders (NVRs), network switches, routers, and workstations. It meets the TIA/EIA-568-B.1-2001 T568B wiring standard, ensuring broad interoperability with standard networking equipment. Its 24 AWG stranded copper conductors provide flexibility and durability for installations in conduits or tight spaces.

Installation Notes

The cable operates within a temperature range of -20°C to 80°C (-4°F to 176°F) and humidity levels of 15% to 65%. The PVC jacket is CMG rated for general-purpose installations, offering a balance of flexibility and fire safety. Its stranded copper construction makes it more pliable than solid core cable, beneficial for runs that involve frequent bending or routing through complex pathways.
