Product Description
A 15m CMG-rated CAT6 patch lead for runs where a standard 5-10m lead won't reach — camera-to-switch drops, loft-to-rack extensions, or NVR positions away from the PoE switch.
Key specs
- Rating: CAT6, 650 MHz, tested to TIA/EIA-568-B.1-2001 T568B wiring

- Connectors: 2× RJ-45, gold-plated contacts, snagless boot
- Jacket: PVC, CMG fire rating (general purpose — not plenum)
- Length: 15 m fixed (no field termination)
- Verification: ETL Verified
- Colour: White
On a CCTV or network job
Stranded copper and a snagless boot make this a patch lead rather than a bulk-install cable — it's built for flexing round racks, patch panels and camera housings, not for fishing through walls. At 650 MHz the CAT6 rating supports Gigabit Ethernet and standard PoE loads on IP cameras; check your camera's PoE class against your switch's per-port budget separately, as that's governed by the powered device and injector/switch, not the cable.
CMG jacket rating means general-purpose indoor use — it isn't rated for plenum spaces or outdoor/direct burial runs, so route it accordingly. Because it's a fixed-length stranded patch cable, it's not intended for re-termination if you need a non-standard length; for that, bulk solid-core cable and separate connectors would be the better fit.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this cable suitable for outdoor CCTV runs?
No — it has a CMG (general purpose) PVC jacket intended for indoor use, not an outdoor or direct-burial rating.
Will this cable support PoE for an IP camera?
The CAT6 rating at 650MHz supports the bandwidth for PoE-capable Gigabit links, but the actual PoE budget depends on your switch or injector and the camera's PoE class, not the cable itself.
Can I cut this cable down to a shorter length and re-terminate it?
It's supplied as a fixed 15m stranded-core patch lead with factory-fitted connectors, so it isn't designed for field re-termination like solid-core bulk cable.
What wiring standard are the connectors terminated to?
Both RJ-45 ends are wired to TIA/EIA-568-B.1-2001 T568B.
