StarTech.com 8ft CAT6A LSZH Ethernet Cable with Shielded RJ45 Connectors and 10Gbps Support

StarTech 8ft 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-8F-CAT6A-PATCH is a high-performance Ethernet cable designed for demanding network environments. This 8-foot black cable supports multi-gigabit speeds up to 10Gbps across a wide frequency range, ensuring fast and reliable data transmission. Its shielded design incorporates foil wrapping on individual twisted pairs and a braided outer shield, providing excellent protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI), which is essential for maintaining signal integrity in noisy environments. The cable's ETL verification confirms compliance with ANSI/TIA-568.2-D standards, guaranteeing optimal performance for high-speed applications and long-distance runs. The shielded RJ45 connectors with gold-plated pins and snagless molded boots facilitate secure connections and ease of installation, preventing damage to the latch during routing. The boots feature integrated strain reliefs to reduce stress at termination points, promoting durability and longevity of the cable. This cable supports Power over Ethernet (PoE++) up to 100W, making it suitable for powering network devices such as cameras, access points, and VoIP phones without additional power supplies. Its LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket is environmentally friendly, producing less dense smoke and corrosive fumes in case of fire, which enhances safety and visibility during evacuation. The braided construction adds flexibility and resistance to bending, reducing the risk of damage over time. Ideal for high-speed networking, PoE applications, and environments requiring strict safety standards, this Cat6a shielded Ethernet cable provides a reliable, eco-conscious solution for professional installations and data centers.
