Description

StarTech RJ45PATCH7 Cat5e Patch Cable

Overview

This 7-foot StarTech RJ45PATCH7 Cat5e patch cable provides a reliable connection for your network devices. It's constructed with 24 AWG copper wire and CM-rated PVC jacket, suitable for standard Ethernet networking applications where a 1 Gbps data rate is required. The 50-micron gold-plated RJ-45 connectors ensure a clean signal path for consistent performance in surveillance systems, office networks, or data centers.

Compatibility

The RJ45PATCH7 is compatible with any network device utilizing an RJ-45 Ethernet port, including IP cameras, NVRs, network switches, routers, and computers. It supports 100W PoE (Power over Ethernet), making it suitable for powering devices like IP cameras directly over the network cable, provided the connected switch or injector supports the required PoE standard.

Installation Notes

The CM (Communications Multipurpose) rating indicates this cable is suitable for use within walls in riser applications, offering a degree of fire safety. The 24 AWG wire gauge provides a balance between flexibility and conductivity for standard Ethernet runs. Ensure the connected network equipment and infrastructure support 1 Gbps speeds for optimal performance.
