Description

StarTech N6PATCH25RD 25ft Cat6 Ethernet Cable

Overview

The StarTech N6PATCH25RD is a 25-foot, red Cat6 Ethernet patch cable designed to support multi-gigabit network speeds up to 10Gbps. This cable is ideal for connecting network devices in environments where higher bandwidth is required, such as surveillance systems, server rooms, or high-performance workstations. Its stranded copper conductors and 50-micron gold-plated RJ45 connectors ensure a stable, high-quality connection, minimizing signal loss and interference. The CMG fire rating makes it suitable for in-wall installations where general-purpose cabling is permitted. The N6PATCH25RD supports 100W PoE, ensuring compatibility with powered devices without needing additional power adapters.

Compatibility

This Cat6 cable is backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat5 networks, but to achieve its rated 10Gbps speeds, it must be used with Cat6-compliant network equipment and infrastructure. It supports data rates of 1/2.5/5Gbps and 10Gbps up to 160 feet (48.8 meters). It is compatible with all standard RJ45 network devices, including switches, routers, network cameras, NVRs, and computers.

Installation Notes

The cable features stranded copper conductors, providing flexibility for easier installation in tight spaces or when routing around obstacles. The PVC jacket offers durability for general-purpose use. Operating and storage temperatures range from -20°C to 80°C (-4°F to 176°F), and it can operate in humidity levels between 15% and 65%. The TIA/EIA-568-B.1-2001 T568B wiring standard ensures proper termination for network connectivity.
