StarTech N6PAT5PLS 5ft Cat6 Ethernet Cable
Overview
The StarTech N6PAT5PLS is a 5-foot purple Cat6 Ethernet cable designed for high-demand network deployments. It supports up to 100W of PoE++ power delivery via IEEE 802.3bt Type 4, making it suitable for powering devices like high-resolution IP cameras, wireless access points, or IoT gateways that require more power than standard PoE can provide. The cable's 28AWG stranded copper conductors ensure reliable data transmission up to 10 Gbps, while the Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) jacket material minimizes hazardous smoke and corrosive byproducts in case of fire, critical for indoor installations where safety is paramount. This cable is specifically engineered to handle the power and data requirements of modern network infrastructure.
Compatibility
This N6PAT5PLS cable is compatible with any network device requiring a Cat6 Ethernet connection and supporting IEEE 802.3bt Type 4 (100W PoE++) power. This includes, but is not limited to, high-power wireless access points, PTZ cameras with integrated heaters, and other PoE++ powered devices. It is backward compatible with 802.3at (PoE+) and 802.3af (PoE) standards, though it will only deliver the maximum power supported by the connected power source equipment and the device.
Installation Notes
The cable features a snagless connector design to prevent damage to the locking tab during installation. Its 28AWG stranded copper construction offers flexibility for routing in tight spaces, but it is not intended for use in applications requiring 23AWG solid conductors for extreme distances or higher bandwidth over longer runs. 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.
