Description

StarTech 45PATCH3WH 3ft Cat5e Patch Cable

Overview

The StarTech 45PATCH3WH is a 3-foot, white Category 5e UTP patch cable designed for reliable network connectivity in environments requiring clean cable management. Its snagless design prevents connector damage during installation and removal, making it suitable for structured cabling deployments in server rooms, network closets, and office spaces where frequent patching occurs. This cable supports up to 1 Gbps data transfer rates, ensuring sufficient bandwidth for IP surveillance cameras, network switches, and other data devices.

Compatibility

This cable is compatible with any network device featuring an RJ-45 Ethernet port, including but not limited to: standard network switches, routers, IP cameras, network video recorders (NVRs), and workstations. It is rated for 100 MHz performance, meeting the specifications for Cat5e networks. The 24 AWG stranded copper conductor construction ensures flexibility and durability for repeated connections.

Installation Notes

The snagless boot design protects the RJ-45 connector tab, preventing accidental disconnections and simplifying cable routing. The CM (Communications Multipurpose) rated PVC jacket allows for use in-wall or between floors in commercial building spaces, provided local codes permit. The cable supports up to 100W of Power over Ethernet (PoE), making it suitable for powering devices like IP cameras or wireless access points without requiring separate power injectors.
