StarTech.com 6ft CAT6a LSZH Ethernet Cable Aqua – Shielded, High-Speed 10Gbps, 100W PoE++

StarTech 6ft CAT6a Ethernet Cable, Aqua Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) 10 GbE 100W PoE S/FTP Snagless RJ-45 Network Patch Cord

The StarTech.com NLAQ-6F-CAT6A-PATCH is a high-performance Ethernet cable designed for demanding networking environments. This 6-foot CAT6a LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) network patch cord features shielded twisted pairs wrapped in foil and a braided outer shield, ensuring superior protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI). The shielded design maintains signal integrity even over longer distances, making it ideal for high-speed data transfer at up to 10 Gbps. The gold-plated shielded RJ45 connectors with snagless boots facilitate easy installation, prevent snagging during routing, and provide strain relief to minimize damage at connection points. The cable’s aqua-colored jacket not only offers a professional appearance but is also environmentally friendly, complying with RoHS standards and producing less dense smoke in the event of a fire, which enhances safety during emergencies.

This cable supports the IEEE 802.3bt-2018 standard for Power over Ethernet (PoE++), delivering up to 100W of power to compatible devices such as high-powered PoE cameras, wireless access points, and VoIP phones. The stranded copper conductors ensure error-free data transmission, stable PoE power delivery, and compatibility with Type 4 PoE devices. It is independently tested and ETL verified to meet ANSI/TIA-568.2-D standards, confirming compliance with strict performance criteria including low near-end crosstalk (NEXT), return loss (RL), and insertion loss. The durable LSZH jacket resists damage from bending and reduces smoke and corrosive fumes during a fire, promoting safety and longevity. Backed by a lifetime warranty and supported with free, multilingual technical assistance, this Ethernet cable is a reliable choice for high-speed, secure, and safe network installations.
