StarTech 45PATCH10BK Cat5e Patch Cable
Overview
Make reliable Fast Ethernet network connections using this high-quality Cat5e patch cable. The StarTech 45PATCH10BK is a 10-foot (3.0 m) cable designed for connecting network devices such as IP cameras, switches, and workstations. Its stranded copper conductors and 24 AWG wire gauge ensure signal integrity for 1Gbps performance, while the CM-rated PVC jacket provides durability and fire safety for in-wall installations. This cable supports up to 100W of Power over Ethernet (PoE), simplifying deployment by eliminating the need for separate power supplies for PoE-enabled devices.
Compatibility
This Cat5e cable is compatible with all standard RJ-45 network ports and supports 1000Base-T Ethernet. It is suitable for connecting any network device requiring a Cat5e or lower-rated cable, including but not limited to: IP surveillance cameras, network switches, routers, access points, and desktop computers. It meets ANSI/TIA-568.2-D Category 5e standards, ensuring interoperability with compliant networking equipment.
Installation Notes
The CM (Communications Multipurpose) rating indicates this cable is suitable for use in-wall and in-ceiling spaces in commercial buildings, providing a higher level of fire safety than standard CMR or CMG cables. The stranded copper conductors offer flexibility, making it easier to route the cable in tight spaces or around corners without compromising performance, unlike solid core cables which are more rigid.
