Description

StarTech N6PATCH7GN 7ft Green Cat6 Ethernet Cable

Overview

The StarTech N6PATCH7GN is a 7-foot, green Category 6 Ethernet cable engineered to support multi-gigabit network speeds, including 1Gbps, 2.5Gbps, 5Gbps, and up to 10Gbps. This cable is designed for environments where high-speed data transfer is critical, such as connecting network-attached storage (NAS) devices, high-performance workstations, or network switches that support 2.5GBASE-T or 5GBASE-T standards. Its distinct green color aids in visual network identification and management, preventing mix-ups with other cable types or lengths in dense server racks or wiring closets.

Compatibility

This Cat6 cable is backward compatible with all preceding Ethernet standards (Cat5, Cat5e) but is specifically rated and tested for performance up to 10Gbps over shorter distances (typically up to 55 meters or 180 feet, though this 7ft cable is well within that limit). It is suitable for connecting any standard RJ45-equipped networking devices, including routers, switches, network interface cards (NICs), IP cameras, and servers that support 10/100/1000/2500/5000/10000 Mbps speeds.

Installation Notes

Ensure the cable is not subjected to excessive bending or sharp kinks, which can degrade performance. For 10Gbps speeds, maintain a clean termination and avoid running parallel to high-voltage power cables for extended distances to minimize electromagnetic interference (EMI).
