Description

StarTech M45PATCH30BL Cat5e Patch Cable

Overview

This 30-foot blue StarTech M45PATCH30BL Cat5e patch cable ensures robust network connectivity for devices requiring up to 100W of power via PoE. It's designed for reliable data transmission in environments where standard Ethernet cables might not suffice, particularly for high-power devices like PTZ cameras or wireless access points. The CMG rating allows for installation within walls, facilitating cleaner deployments.

Compatibility

This cable is compatible with any network device requiring a Cat5e Ethernet connection, supporting data rates up to 1 Gbps. It is specifically suited for use with devices that draw power via IEEE 802.3bt (PoE++) standards, up to the full 100W, ensuring sufficient power delivery for demanding equipment. It adheres to the TIA/EIA-568-B.1-2001 T568B wiring standard, ensuring broad interoperability with network infrastructure.

Installation Notes

The cable features stranded copper conductors for flexibility, making it easier to route in tight spaces. Its operating temperature range of -20 to 60 C (4 to 140 F) accommodates most indoor installation environments. The CMG (Communications Multipurpose-Grade) fire rating indicates it meets safety standards for use in building riser pathways. The 50-micron gold-plated RJ-45 connectors provide durable, corrosion-resistant contact points for consistent signal integrity.
