Description

StarTech N6PATCH9PL 9ft Purple Cat6 Ethernet Cable

Overview

This 9-foot purple Cat6 Ethernet cable, model N6PATCH9PL, provides a reliable connection for multi-gigabit networks, supporting data rates up to 10Gbps. Its stranded copper conductors and gold-plated RJ-45 connectors ensure consistent signal integrity, making it suitable for demanding network environments, including surveillance systems that require high bandwidth for real-time video streams. The CM-rated PVC jacket offers durability and flame resistance for in-wall or exposed installations.

Compatibility

This cable is designed for use with any standard RJ-45 network device. It is backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat5 networks but is optimized for Cat6 performance. It supports 1/2.5/5Gbps and 10Gbps Ethernet speeds, making it compatible with high-speed network switches, routers, network attached storage (NAS) devices, and IP cameras that require multi-gigabit connectivity. The 100W PoE support means it can safely carry power to PoE-enabled devices without overheating.

Installation Notes

The cable features a 24 AWG stranded copper conductor construction, which provides flexibility for easier routing in tight spaces compared to solid core cables. The operating and storage temperature range is -20°C to 80°C, and it can operate in humidity levels from 15% to 65%. The TIA/EIA-568-B.1-2001 T568B wiring standard ensures proper termination for network connectivity.
