Description

StarTech N6PAT50RDS 50ft Red Slim Cat6 Ethernet Cable

Overview

The StarTech N6PAT50RDS is a 50-foot, red, slim Cat6 Ethernet cable designed for high-demand network deployments. Its 28AWG stranded copper conductors and 10Gbps data rate support ensure robust performance for surveillance systems and other critical network infrastructure. The LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket material provides enhanced safety in enclosed spaces, making it suitable for installations where fire safety is paramount. This cable is specifically engineered to deliver up to 100W of power over a single connection, supporting the IEEE 802.3bt Type 4 standard for PoE++ devices, such as high-performance IP cameras or network switches.

Compatibility

This Cat6 cable is backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat5 standards, but achieves its full 10Gbps potential and 250 MHz bandwidth when used with Cat6-compliant network devices. It is ideal for connecting devices that require both high-speed data transfer and significant power delivery, including many modern IP cameras, wireless access points, and network switches that support 100W PoE++ (IEEE 802.3bt Type 4). The snagless connector design facilitates easy installation and removal without damaging the cable or port.

Installation Notes

The cable features a slim 0.1-inch (3.6 mm) outer diameter, which aids in managing cable runs in tight spaces or conduit. The operating temperature range is 10°C to 60°C (50°F to 140°F), and storage temperature is -20°C to 60°C (-4°F to 140°F). Humidity should be maintained between 10% and 80% RH. The wiring standard is TIA/EIA-568-B.1-2001 T568B.
