Description

StarTech 45PATCH7GR 7ft Cat5e Ethernet Cable

Overview

This 7-foot gray StarTech 45PATCH7GR Cat5e Ethernet cable is designed for reliable Fast Ethernet network connections. It's constructed with 24 AWG stranded copper conductors, ensuring flexibility and durability for deployments in tight spaces or where frequent movement is expected. The CM-rated PVC jacket provides a balance of flexibility and fire safety for in-wall or general-purpose installations. This cable is suitable for connecting network devices such as IP cameras, NVRs, switches, and workstations where 1 Gbps data rates are required.

Compatibility

The 45PATCH7GR is compatible with any network device utilizing an RJ-45 connector and requiring Cat5e performance. This includes a wide range of surveillance equipment such as IP cameras and network video recorders from brands like Axis, Hikvision, Dahua, and Hanwha, as well as standard IT networking gear like switches, routers, and computers. It supports IEEE 802.3bt for up to 100W PoE delivery, making it suitable for powering high-demand devices over the network cable.

Installation Notes

The 50-micron gold-plated RJ-45 connectors offer superior conductivity and corrosion resistance, ensuring a stable connection. The stranded copper construction provides better flexibility than solid core cable, making it easier to route in conduits or around corners without compromising signal integrity. The CM rating indicates suitability for use in the communications space between the floor and ceiling, or in non-plenum building spaces.
