StarTech.com 6ft Cat6a S/FTP Ethernet Patch Cable, Blue – Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH), 10Gbps, PoE++ Support

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

The StarTech.com 6ft Cat6a S/FTP Ethernet Patch Cable is designed for high-speed, reliable network connections in demanding environments. This shielded cable supports multi-gigabit data transfer rates of up to 10Gbps across distances, with error-free performance thanks to low Near-End Crosstalk (NEXT) and return loss specifications. Its professional-grade construction ensures robust signal integrity and interference resistance, making it ideal for data centers, enterprise networks, and high-performance setups. The ETL verification confirms compliance with ANSI/TIA-568.2-D standards, providing confidence in its ability to handle high-bandwidth applications with minimal signal degradation. The shielded twisted pairs wrapped in foil, along with a braided shield, significantly reduce electromagnetic interference and noise, resulting in clearer signals and more stable network performance. The gold-plated shielded RJ45 connectors feature snagless boots with integrated strain reliefs, protecting the connector tabs during installation and preventing damage from bending or pulling. This design promotes easier routing and maintains reliable connections over time. The cable supports Power over Ethernet (PoE++) up to 100W, fully compliant with IEEE 802.3bt standards, enabling the powering of high-power devices such as cameras, access points, and VoIP phones directly through the network. Its durable LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket offers an eco-friendly alternative to PVC cables, producing less smoke and corrosive fumes in case of fire, thereby increasing safety and visibility during evacuations. Built with 100% stranded copper conductors, this cable ensures error-free data transmission and stable PoE delivery, unlike lower-quality copper-clad aluminum options. Designed to resist damage from bending, the braided construction adds flexibility and longevity. This 6-foot patch cord comes in a vibrant blue, making it easy to identify in complex setups. With a lifetime warranty and free technical support, the StarTech.com Cat6a Ethernet cable offers a reliable, high-performance solution for critical network infrastructure needs.
