Black Box EVNSL650-0004 CAT6 550MHz Snagless Stranded Ethernet Patch Cable
Overview
The Black Box EVNSL650-0004 is a 550 MHz, unshielded (UTP) Category 6 Ethernet patch cable designed for reliable data transmission in commercial and surveillance environments. Its stranded copper conductors offer flexibility, making it suitable for applications requiring frequent cable movement or tight bends, such as connecting network switches to IP cameras or NVRs. The snagless boot design prevents connector damage during installation and removal, ensuring a secure and stable network link. This cable is rated CM (Communications Multipurpose) PVC, suitable for in-wall or riser installations where fire safety codes apply.
Compatibility
This CAT6 cable is backward compatible with CAT5e and CAT5 networks and supports Gigabit Ethernet (1000BASE-T) and faster network speeds up to 10 Gbps over shorter distances, provided the connected network equipment supports these standards. It is compatible with standard RJ45 network ports found on most IP cameras, network switches, routers, and NVRs. For optimal performance and to achieve 550 MHz bandwidth, ensure all network components (cables, connectors, switches) are CAT6 rated.
Installation Notes
The snagless boot design protects the RJ45 connector's clip from damage, simplifying installation and removal. Stranded conductors offer greater flexibility than solid conductors, but are less suited for long-distance horizontal runs within walls. Ensure the CM PVC jacket rating is appropriate for your installation environment, particularly for in-wall or riser applications.
