Description

StarTech S45PATCH6BL 6ft Cat5e Shielded Network Patch Cable

Overview

The StarTech S45PATCH6BL is a 6-foot shielded Cat5e network patch cable designed for reliable data transmission and power delivery in commercial environments. Its CMG-rated PVC jacket ensures safety for general-purpose installations, while the snagless design simplifies deployment by protecting the RJ45 connector tabs. This cable is engineered to support high-speed networking and Power over Ethernet (PoE) up to 100W, making it suitable for connecting IP cameras, access control panels, and other network devices where both data and power are required over a single cable run.

Compatibility

This cable is compatible with any network device utilizing an RJ45 Ethernet port, including standard network switches, routers, and endpoints. It supports the IEEE 802.3bt standard for up to 100W PoE, ensuring compatibility with high-power devices such as PTZ cameras, wireless access points, and VoIP phones that require more power than standard PoE (802.3af) or PoE+ (802.3at) can provide. The 24 AWG wire gauge ensures sufficient current capacity for these applications.

Installation Notes

The operating temperature range is 0°C to 50°C (32°F to 122°F), and humidity should not exceed 95% RH. The cable jacket is PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) with a CMG fire rating, suitable for general-purpose use within building spaces. The snagless boot design prevents connector damage during installation and removal. Storage temperatures range from -20°C to 70°C (-4°F to 158°F).
