Black Box C6S-R-SB-STR-YL-20 Cat6 STP Stranded Ethernet Cable
Overview
The Black Box C6S-R-SB-STR-YL-20 is a 20-foot Category 6 Shielded Twisted Pair (STP) Ethernet cable designed for reliable data transmission in demanding network environments. Its stranded copper conductors and robust construction ensure signal integrity, making it suitable for connecting IP cameras, network switches, and other surveillance equipment where consistent performance is critical. The yellow PVC jacket aids in visual identification within cable runs.
Compatibility
This cable is compatible with all standard networking equipment that utilizes RJ45 connectors, including but not limited to: IP cameras from brands such as Axis, Hanwha, Hikvision, and Dahua; network switches from Cisco, Ubiquiti, and Netgear; and network video recorders (NVRs) from any manufacturer supporting standard Ethernet connectivity. It meets Category 6 performance standards, supporting data rates up to 10 Gbps over shorter distances and 1 Gbps up to 100 meters.
Installation Notes
The stranded copper conductors offer greater flexibility than solid core cables, making this C6S-R-SB-STR-YL-20 easier to route in tight spaces or around equipment racks. The STP construction provides enhanced protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and crosstalk, which is crucial in environments with high-density cabling or nearby power sources. Ensure proper grounding of the shield at both ends to maximize EMI protection.
