Took the words out of my mouth......I was gonna say probably guarantees sufficient wire gauge for full wattage on POE++. ________________________________ From: AF <af-boun...@af.afmug.com> on behalf of Forrest Christian (List Account) <li...@packetflux.com> Sent: Wednesday, March 26, 2025 9:37 PM To: AnimalFarm Microwave Users Group <af@af.afmug.com> Subject: Re: [AFMUG] Been using the wrong patch cables.
Now I've had some fun, if I wanted to give monoprice the benefit of the doubt, I would guess that what they're really trying to say here is that these are larger (normal) gauge and real copper and not CCA. There are some thin/super flexible cables out there that use rediculously thin conductors and some cheap cables which are CCA - neither of which are good for PoE.

Yes, they're marketed as completely different skus from their normal patch cables. Apparently all this time I've been under the mistaken impression that regular patch cables work with PoE just fine. /s
