StarTech.com 20ft CAT6a LSZH Ethernet Cable with Shielded RJ45 Connectors and 10Gbps Support

StarTech 20ft CAT6a Ethernet Cable, Black Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) 10 GbE 100W PoE S/FTP Snagless RJ-45 Network Patch Cord

The StarTech.com NLBK-20F-CAT6A-PATCH is a high-performance 20-foot Ethernet cable designed for demanding network environments that require fast, reliable, and safe data transmission. Built with high-quality copper conductors, this cable supports multi-gigabit connections of 1, 2.5, 5, and 10Gbps, making it suitable for data centers, enterprise networks, and high-speed applications. Its ETL verification confirms compliance with ANSI/TIA-568.2-D standards, ensuring minimal interference, low crosstalk, and stable signal integrity over longer cable runs. The cable’s foil-wrapped twisted pairs and braided shield significantly reduce electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI), providing noise-free performance even in electrically noisy environments. This shielding enhances overall network reliability and data accuracy, crucial for high-bandwidth applications and sensitive data transmission. The cable features shielded RJ45 connectors with gold-plated pins and snagless molded boots that protect the tabs and strain reliefs, facilitating easy and damage-free installation. These boots also prevent the cable from snagging during routing and ensure durability at connection points. The LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket is PVC-free, producing less dense and corrosive smoke in case of fire, which improves safety for occupants and first responders. Its braided construction adds mechanical strength, resisting damage from bending and handling, and is an environmentally friendly choice aligned with RoHS standards. Supporting 100W Power over Ethernet (PoE++), this cable can reliably power high-wattage PoE devices such as cameras, wireless access points, and VoIP phones, simplifying installation by reducing the need for separate power supplies. Designed for both performance and safety, this Ethernet cable is ideal for professional networking applications that demand high-speed data, power delivery, and eco-conscious materials. Backed by a lifetime warranty and included with free lifetime technical support, the StarTech.com CAT6a LSZH Ethernet Cable ensures long-term peace of mind and dependable network connectivity.
