StarTech C6PATCH5BK 5ft Cat6 Ethernet Cable
Overview
This 5-foot black StarTech C6PATCH5BK Cat6 Ethernet cable is engineered for high-speed data transmission, supporting multi-gigabit speeds up to 10Gbps. Its construction is optimized for demanding network environments, ensuring reliable connectivity for surveillance systems, network-attached storage, and high-performance workstations. The 24 AWG stranded copper conductors and 50-micron gold-plated RJ-45 connectors minimize signal loss and ensure consistent performance, making it suitable for critical infrastructure deployments where data integrity is paramount.
Compatibility
This cable is designed to support TIA/EIA-568-B.1-2001 T568B wiring standards, ensuring broad compatibility with standard networking equipment. It supports data rates of 1Gbps, 2.5Gbps, 5Gbps, and 10Gbps, making it suitable for connecting devices such as IP cameras, network switches, routers, and servers that require high bandwidth. The cable is also rated for up to 100W of PoE (Power over Ethernet), allowing it to carry both data and power to compatible devices, simplifying installations by reducing the need for separate power supplies.
Installation Notes
The 24 AWG stranded copper construction provides flexibility, which can be advantageous during installation in tight spaces or complex cable management systems. The PVC jacket offers durability for standard indoor use. While rated for 100W PoE, ensure your network switch or injector can supply the required power budget for connected devices.
