Description

StarTech N6PATCH100OR 100ft Cat6 Ethernet Cable

Overview

The StarTech N6PATCH100OR is a 100-foot, orange, Cat6 Ethernet patch cable designed for reliable network connectivity in surveillance and general IT deployments. Its 24 AWG stranded copper conductors ensure flexibility and durability, while the CMG-rated PVC jacket provides fire safety for in-wall installations. This cable supports up to 100W Power over Ethernet (PoE), making it suitable for powering devices like IP cameras, wireless access points, or VoIP phones without needing separate power injectors. The N6PATCH100OR is built to TIA/EIA-568-B.1-2001 T568B wiring standards, ensuring compatibility with standard network infrastructure.

Compatibility

This cable is compatible with any network device requiring a standard RJ-45 Ethernet connection, including but not limited to: IP cameras, NVRs, network switches, routers, VoIP phones, and wireless access points. It supports Cat6 performance up to 250 MHz, ensuring it meets the bandwidth requirements for 1000BASE-T (Gigabit Ethernet) and is backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat5 networks. The 100W PoE support makes it ideal for high-power devices such as PTZ cameras or high-density Wi-Fi access points.

Installation Notes

The cable operates within a temperature range of -20C to 80C (-4F to 176F) and can be stored within the same range. It is designed for use in environments with humidity levels between 15% and 65%. The stranded copper conductors offer good flexibility for routing in tight spaces, but care should be taken to avoid sharp bends that could exceed the minimum bend radius, potentially impacting performance or damaging the cable.
