Description

StarTech N6PATCH7BL 7ft Cat6 Ethernet Cable

Overview

The StarTech N6PATCH7BL is a 7-foot blue Category 6 Ethernet patch cable designed to deliver reliable network connectivity for demanding applications. It supports multi-gigabit speeds up to 10Gbps over shorter distances and is rated for up to 100W Power over Ethernet (PoE), making it suitable for powering high-demand devices like IP cameras, wireless access points, or VoIP phones without requiring a separate power supply. The 24 AWG stranded copper conductors ensure flexibility and durability, while the CMG fire rating indicates suitability for general-purpose in-wall installations.

Compatibility

This N6PATCH7BL cable is compatible with any network device featuring an RJ-45 Ethernet port, including but not limited to: StarTech network switches, IP cameras, NVRs, servers, workstations, and routers. It supports TIA/EIA-568-B.1-2001 T568B wiring standards, ensuring interoperability with standard network infrastructure. It is designed to support data rates of 1Gbps up to 328 feet (100 meters), 2.5Gbps and 5Gbps up to 160 feet (50 meters), and 10Gbps up to 160 feet (50 meters).

Installation Notes

The cable operates within a temperature range of -20°C to 80°C (-4°F to 176°F) and can be stored within the same range. It is designed for environments with 15% to 65% humidity. The stranded 24 AWG copper conductors offer good flexibility for routing in tight spaces, and the PVC jacket provides a balance of durability and flexibility. The CMG rating signifies its suitability for use in general building environments.
