Description

StarTech N6LPATCH20BK 20ft Cat6 LSZH Ethernet Cable - Black

Overview

The StarTech N6LPATCH20BK is a 20-foot, black, Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) Cat6 Ethernet patch cable designed for reliable network connectivity and high-power Power over Ethernet (PoE++) delivery. Its LSZH jacket material minimizes toxic smoke and corrosive halogenated compounds in case of fire, making it suitable for environments where safety regulations are stringent, such as public buildings, data centers, and industrial facilities. This cable ensures 250 MHz performance, supporting data transfer rates up to 10 Gbps over its 20-foot length, making it ideal for connecting network devices like IP cameras, access control panels, or network switches where clean cable runs and robust power delivery are critical.

Compatibility

This Cat6 patch cable is compatible with all standard RJ-45 network interfaces, including those found on most IP surveillance cameras, network switches, routers, and workstations. It specifically supports IEEE 802.3bt Type 4 (PoE++) up to 100W, ensuring sufficient power delivery for high-demand devices like PTZ cameras or high-density wireless access points without requiring separate power injectors. It adheres to the TIA/EIA-568-B.1-2001 T568B wiring standard, ensuring interoperability with existing network infrastructure.

Installation Notes

The cable features a 24 AWG wire gauge, providing a balance between flexibility and conductivity. The operating and storage temperature range is 0°C to 80°C (32°F to 176°F), with a humidity tolerance of 0%RH to 95%RH. The cable jacket has an outer diameter of 6 mm (0.2 inches), offering a manageable size for routing through conduits or cable trays. Its LSZH construction mandates careful consideration during installation to ensure compliance with local fire codes.
