Description

Black Box CAT6PC-005-BK-25PAK Cat6 Ethernet Patch Cable

Overview

The Black Box CAT6PC-005-BK-25PAK is a 50-foot, Category 6 unshielded twisted pair (UTP) Ethernet patch cable designed for horizontal network runs in commercial environments. Its CM (Communications Multipurpose) rating signifies suitability for use in walls and between floors, ensuring compliance with building codes for plenum and riser spaces. The molded, snagless boots protect the RJ45 connectors during installation and removal, preventing cable damage and ensuring a secure connection. This 25-pack configuration is ideal for bulk deployments in offices, data centers, or surveillance installations where numerous connections are required.

Compatibility

This Cat6 patch cable is compatible with all standard networking equipment featuring RJ45 ports, including network switches, routers, firewalls, IP cameras, NVRs, VoIP phones, and workstations. It supports data transfer rates up to 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) over distances up to 55 meters (180 feet) and 1 Gigabit Ethernet (1GbE) up to 100 meters (328 feet), provided the connected devices and infrastructure also support these standards. It is backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat3 cabling systems.

Installation Notes

The stranded copper conductors offer greater flexibility compared to solid core cables, making them suitable for applications requiring frequent movement or bending, such as connecting devices at a desk or patching between equipment racks. The snagless boots prevent the locking tab on the RJ45 connector from being damaged during installation, which is a common failure point for standard patch cables. Ensure the CM rating is appropriate for your local building codes; for plenum spaces, a CMP-rated cable is required.
