Description

StarTech N6PATCH8GR 8ft Cat6 Ethernet Cable

Overview

The StarTech N6PATCH8GR is an 8-foot gray Cat6 Ethernet cable designed for reliable network connectivity. It supports multi-gigabit speeds up to 10Gbps over distances up to 160 feet, making it suitable for high-bandwidth applications in surveillance systems, data centers, or office environments where network performance is critical. The stranded copper conductors ensure flexibility, while the PVC jacket offers general-purpose fire safety.

Compatibility

This Cat6 cable is compatible with all standard RJ-45 network devices, including network switches, routers, IP cameras, NVRs, and workstations. It supports 1/2.5/5Gbps and 10Gbps Ethernet standards, ensuring backward compatibility with Gigabit Ethernet (1000Mbps) and Fast Ethernet (100Mbps) networks. It is suitable for use with Power over Ethernet (PoE) devices, supporting up to 100W of power delivery without signal degradation.

Installation Notes

The cable features stranded 24 AWG copper conductors, providing flexibility for installation in tight spaces. The TIA/EIA-568-B.1-2001 T568B wiring standard ensures proper pinout for network connectivity. The operating and storage temperature range is -20°C to 80°C, and it can operate in 15-65% humidity.
