Description

StarTech N6PATCH1PL 1FT Purple Cat6 Ethernet Cable

Overview

The StarTech N6PATCH1PL is a 1-foot, purple Cat6 Ethernet cable designed for reliable network connectivity in environments requiring specific cable runs or color-coding. Its stranded copper conductors and gold-plated connectors ensure consistent data transfer for network devices, including IP cameras and PoE-powered equipment. The 24 AWG wire gauge and TIA/EIA-568-B.1-2001 T568B wiring standard provide compatibility with standard network infrastructure. This cable supports up to 100W of Power over Ethernet (PoE), making it suitable for powering devices like IP cameras, wireless access points, or VoIP phones without needing a separate power supply for the device itself.

Compatibility

This Cat6 cable is compatible with all standard RJ45 network devices, including but not limited to: IP cameras from brands like Axis, Hanwha, Hikvision, and Dahua; network switches from Cisco, Ubiquiti, and Netgear; and VoIP phones from Polycom and Yealink. It supports 10/100/1000 Mbps (Gigabit Ethernet) and 10 Gigabit Ethernet up to 55 meters, ensuring broad compatibility with most network infrastructure. The CMG fire rating makes it suitable for use within walls and between floors in commercial buildings.

Installation Notes

The cable features stranded copper conductors, offering flexibility for installations in tight spaces or where the cable needs to be routed around corners. The operating temperature range of -20°C to 80°C (-4°F to 176°F) allows for deployment in a variety of environmental conditions, though care should be taken to avoid exceeding these limits. The CMG rating indicates it meets general-purpose cable flammability requirements for use in non-plenum spaces.
