StarTech N6PATCH2BL 2ft Cat6 Ethernet Cable
Overview
The StarTech N6PATCH2BL is a 2-foot blue Cat6 Ethernet patch cable designed to support multi-gigabit network speeds up to 10Gbps. Its stranded copper conductors and 24 AWG wire gauge ensure signal integrity for demanding network applications, including surveillance systems requiring high bandwidth for multiple 1080p or 4K streams. The CMG-rated PVC jacket allows for safe installation in general-purpose or in-wall applications where fire safety is a concern. This cable is ideal for connecting network devices in close proximity, such as a camera to a nearby PoE switch or a workstation to a wall jack, without excessive cable slack.
Compatibility
This Cat6 cable is compatible with all standard RJ-45 network devices, including 10/100/1000Base-T Ethernet networks and multi-gigabit 1/2.5/5Gbps and 10Gbps networks. It supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) up to 100W, making it suitable for powering devices like IP cameras, wireless access points, and VoIP phones directly over the network cable without needing a separate power adapter. It adheres to the TIA/EIA-568-B.1-2001 T568B wiring standard, ensuring interoperability with most network infrastructure.
Installation Notes
Operating and storage temperatures range from -20°C to 80°C (-4°F to 176°F) with humidity between 15% and 65%. The stranded copper conductor design offers flexibility for installations in tight spaces, but avoid sharp bends that exceed the minimum bend radius to maintain signal performance. The gold-plated RJ-45 connectors provide corrosion resistance and reliable connectivity.
