StarTech N6PATCH7YL 7ft Yellow Cat6 Ethernet Cable
Overview
The StarTech N6PATCH7YL is a 7-foot yellow Cat6 Ethernet cable designed for high-performance network connections. It supports multi-gigabit speeds up to 10Gbps, making it suitable for demanding applications like video surveillance recording, high-speed data transfers, and VDI environments where network throughput is critical. The CMG rating ensures it meets safety standards for in-wall installations, providing a reliable link for your network infrastructure. This cable utilizes stranded copper conductors for flexibility and ease of routing in network closets or data centers.
Compatibility
This Cat6 cable is backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat5 networks, but to achieve its full 10Gbps potential, it must be connected to Cat6-certified network devices and infrastructure. It is compatible with any network device featuring an RJ-45 port, including network switches, routers, IP cameras, NVRs, and workstations. The 24 AWG stranded copper construction ensures it meets the specifications for 1000BASE-T (Gigabit Ethernet) and 10GBASE-T (10 Gigabit Ethernet) standards up to 55 meters (180 feet). It supports 1/2.5/5Gbps speeds required by emerging multi-gigabit network adapters.
Installation Notes
The cable jacket is PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) and CMG rated, suitable for in-wall installations where fire safety is a concern. The operating and storage temperature range is -20°C to 80°C ( -4°F to 176°F) with a humidity range of 15% to 65%. The 24 AWG stranded copper conductors offer flexibility for routing in tight spaces, reducing the risk of damage during installation. The 50-micron gold-plated connectors ensure a durable, corrosion-resistant connection for optimal signal integrity.
