Description

StarTech N6PATCH10RD 10ft Cat6 Ethernet Cable

Overview

The StarTech N6PATCH10RD is a 10-foot (3-meter) red Cat6 Ethernet patch cable designed to support multi-gigabit network speeds up to 10Gbps. This cable is engineered for reliable data transmission in environments requiring higher bandwidth than standard Cat5e, such as connecting high-performance network devices, IP cameras, or workstations to a switch. Its stranded copper conductors and CMG-rated jacket make it suitable for in-wall installations where fire safety is a concern.

Compatibility

This Cat6 cable is backward compatible with Cat5e and supports 1000BASE-T (1Gbps), 2.5GBASE-T, 5GBASE-T, and 10GBASE-T Ethernet standards. It is suitable for connecting any network-enabled device with an RJ-45 port, including network switches, routers, IP cameras, NVRs, computers, and servers. The T568B wiring standard ensures broad compatibility with most networking equipment.

Installation Notes

The cable features stranded copper conductors, providing flexibility for easier routing in tight spaces. The PVC jacket is CMG-rated, indicating suitability for use in building environments where fire resistance is required. Operating and storage temperatures range from -20°C to 80°C, with humidity tolerance between 15% and 65% RH. The 50-micron gold-plated RJ-45 connectors ensure a durable, corrosion-resistant connection.
