StarTech 45PATCH5WH 5ft Cat5e Patch Cable
Overview
This 5-foot StarTech 45PATCH5WH Cat5e patch cable provides a reliable connection for Fast Ethernet networks, supporting speeds up to 1Gbps. Its stranded copper conductors and 24 AWG wire gauge ensure flexibility and durability for network deployments. The CM-rated PVC jacket offers fire safety compliance, making it suitable for in-wall installations within commercial environments. This cable is ideal for connecting network devices like IP cameras, NVRs, or switches where a short, dependable link is required.
Compatibility
The 45PATCH5WH is compatible with any network device requiring a standard RJ-45 Ethernet connection, including but not limited to: IP cameras, network video recorders (NVRs), network switches, routers, and workstations. It adheres to the TIA/EIA-568-B.1-2001 T568B wiring standard, ensuring broad interoperability with standard networking equipment.
Installation Notes
The cable features stranded copper conductors, providing greater flexibility than solid core cables, which is beneficial for installations requiring frequent bending or routing through tight spaces. The CM (Communications Multipurpose) rating indicates suitability for use in the inter-building and intra-building backbone or horizontal cable requirements of Class 2 circuits, as defined by the National Electrical Code (NEC) Article 800. It supports 100W PoE, meaning it can safely carry power to PoE-enabled devices without overheating.
