Description

StarTech C6PATCH7BL 7ft Cat6 Ethernet Cable

Overview

The StarTech C6PATCH7BL is a 7-foot blue Cat6 Ethernet patch cable designed for high-speed network infrastructure. It ensures reliable data transmission for multi-gigabit applications, including 1/2.5/5Gbps and 10Gbps Ethernet, up to 160 feet. This cable is suitable for connecting network devices in environments requiring robust performance and clear cable management, such as server rooms, network closets, or structured cabling runs within commercial buildings. The C6PATCH7BL model is built to meet demanding network requirements.

Compatibility

This Cat6 cable is backward compatible with 100/1000Base-T networks and supports the higher bandwidth required for 10Gbps Ethernet connections. It is suitable for use with network switches, routers, IP cameras, NVRs, servers, and any other networking equipment utilizing RJ-45 connectors that require Cat6 performance standards. The TIA/EIA-568-B.1-2001 T568B wiring standard ensures broad compatibility with standard network installations.

Installation Notes

Featuring a CMG (Communications Multipurpose, General Use) rated PVC jacket, this cable is suitable for use within walls and between floors in commercial buildings, providing a degree of fire resistance. The 24 AWG stranded copper conductors offer flexibility and durability for frequent handling or routing. The 50-micron gold-plated RJ-45 connectors ensure a corrosion-resistant, high-integrity connection for optimal signal transfer and longevity. It supports up to 100W of PoE power, making it suitable for powering devices like IP phones, wireless access points, or surveillance cameras without needing a separate power source.
