StarTech N6PATCH5WH 5ft Cat6 Ethernet Cable
Overview
The StarTech N6PATCH5WH is a 5-foot white Cat6 Ethernet patch cable designed to support multi-gigabit network speeds, including 1Gbps, 2.5Gbps, 5Gbps, and up to 10Gbps over shorter distances. Its CMG-rated PVC jacket ensures compliance for in-wall installations, making it suitable for connecting network devices in commercial environments or for high-speed workstation drops. The stranded copper conductors and 24 AWG wire gauge provide flexibility and reliable signal transmission for demanding network infrastructure.
Compatibility
This Cat6 cable is compatible with all standard RJ-45 network devices, including network switches, routers, IP cameras, NVRs, and workstations. It supports data rates up to 10Gbps for distances up to 160 feet (55 meters), and higher multi-gigabit speeds (1/2.5/5Gbps) over longer runs. It is backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat5 networks. The cable supports 100W PoE (Power over Ethernet), making it suitable for powering devices like IP phones, wireless access points, and surveillance cameras without requiring a separate power supply.
Installation Notes
The cable features stranded copper conductors for flexibility, ideal for frequent movement or tight installations. The CMG (Communications Multipurpose, Grade) fire rating indicates it is suitable for use in general-purpose horizontal or vertical building riser applications. The operating and storage temperature range is -20°C to 80°C (-4°F to 176°F), and humidity tolerance is 15% to 65%.
