Description

StarTech N6PATCH1BK 1FT Black Cat6 Ethernet Cable

Overview

The StarTech N6PATCH1BK is a 1-foot, black Category 6 Ethernet patch cable designed to deliver reliable network connectivity for multi-gigabit speeds. Its short length minimizes cable clutter in dense rack environments, making it ideal for connecting network devices like switches, servers, or surveillance cameras where precise cable runs are required. This cable supports 10Gbps speeds up to 160 feet, ensuring ample bandwidth for demanding applications such as high-definition video streaming and data transfer. The N6PATCH1BK is built with stranded copper conductors for flexibility and T568B wiring for standard network configurations.

Compatibility

This Cat6 cable is compatible with all standard networking equipment requiring an RJ-45 connection, including 10/100/1000Base-T and 2.5/5/10GBase-T networks. It is suitable for use with network switches, routers, patch panels, and devices such as IP cameras, NVRs, and access control systems that utilize Ethernet connectivity. The cable supports 100W PoE (Power over Ethernet) pass-through, making it suitable for powering PoE-enabled devices without requiring a separate power adapter.

Installation Notes

The cable jacket is CMG rated (General Purpose), suitable for use in walls and between floors in commercial buildings. Operating and storage temperatures range from -20°C to 80°C, with humidity tolerance between 15% and 65%. The stranded copper conductor design offers flexibility for routing in tight spaces, while the 24 AWG wire gauge ensures sufficient conductivity for high-speed data transmission. Gold-plated connectors provide durable, corrosion-resistant connections.
