Description

StarTech N6PATCH8GN 8ft Green Cat6 Ethernet Cable

Overview

The StarTech N6PATCH8GN is an 8-foot, green, Category 6 Ethernet cable designed for reliable network connectivity in commercial and enterprise environments. It utilizes 24 AWG stranded copper conductors and gold-plated RJ-45 connectors to ensure consistent data transmission for demanding applications, including surveillance systems and high-speed data transfer. The CMG-rated PVC jacket provides general-purpose fire safety, making it suitable for in-wall installations where code permits. This cable supports data rates up to 10Gbps, ensuring it won't be a bottleneck for modern network infrastructure. The N6PATCH8GN is ideal for connecting network devices such as IP cameras, NVRs, switches, and workstations in environments requiring specific cable color-coding for organization.

Compatibility

This Cat6 cable is compatible with all standard RJ-45 network devices and infrastructure. It supports 10/100/1000 Mbps (Gigabit Ethernet) and 2.5/5/10 Gbps data rates, making it suitable for use with:

  • Network Attached Storage (NAS) devices
  • Network Video Recorders (NVRs) and Digital Video Recorders (DVRs)
  • Managed and unmanaged network switches
  • IP cameras and surveillance systems
  • Workstations and servers
  • Routers and modems
  • Any device requiring an Ethernet connection

It adheres to the TIA/EIA-568-B.1-2001 T568B wiring standard.

Installation Notes

The cable operates within a temperature range of -20°C to 80°C (-4°F to 176°F) and is suitable for environments with 15% to 65% humidity. The stranded copper conductor design offers flexibility, making it easier to route in tight spaces compared to solid core cables, though it is generally recommended for shorter runs and applications where flexibility is prioritized over extreme rigidity. The CMG rating indicates suitability for general-purpose riser applications.
