Black Box EVNSL647-40 Cat6 Patch Cable
Overview
The Black Box Gigatrue 550 CAT6 Patch PPF cable, model EVNSL647-40, is a 40-foot, black Ethernet cable designed for reliable data transmission in commercial and surveillance environments. Its construction supports Gigabit Ethernet speeds, making it suitable for connecting network devices like IP cameras, NVRs, and switches where consistent performance is critical. The PPF (Plenum-rated, Polyolefin jacket) construction offers enhanced fire safety compared to standard PVC jackets, allowing for installation in plenum spaces above ceilings or under floors without requiring conduit.
Compatibility
This Cat6 cable is backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat5 networks, and forward compatible with Cat6a, Cat7, and Cat8 standards, though its performance is optimized for Cat6 speeds up to 1 Gbps. It is suitable for use with any standard RJ45-terminated network devices, including IP cameras from brands like Axis, Hanwha, Hikvision, and Dahua, as well as network switches and NVRs from various manufacturers. Ensure your network infrastructure supports Gigabit Ethernet for optimal performance.
Installation Notes
The 40-foot length provides flexibility for connecting devices within a rack or across a moderate distance. The PPF jacket offers superior fire resistance and lower smoke emission compared to PVC, meeting building codes for plenum spaces. Ensure the cable is not subjected to excessive pulling tension or sharp bends (minimum bend radius of 4x cable diameter) to maintain signal integrity and prevent damage to internal conductors.
