StarTech.com CAT6A LSZH Ethernet Cable (NLAQ-20F-CAT6A-PATCH) – 20ft Aqua Shielded Network Cable with PoE++ Support

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

The StarTech.com CAT6A LSZH Ethernet Cable provides high-performance connectivity for demanding network environments. Designed with shielded twisted pairs wrapped in foil and an outer braided shield, this cable ensures superior signal integrity and robust protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI). Its aqua-colored, PVC-free Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) jacket produces fewer toxic fumes during fires, enhancing safety and visibility for quick evacuations. This environmentally friendly design is ideal for installations requiring compliance with safety standards and eco-conscious solutions. The cable supports multi-gigabit speeds up to 10Gbps across a broad frequency range, meeting ANSI/TIA-568.2-D standards and being tested with Fluke verification for reliable performance. It features shielded RJ45 connectors with gold-plated pins and snagless molded boots that protect the latch during installation, making cable routing and device connections more straightforward and secure. The cable's 100W Power over Ethernet (PoE++) support, compliant with IEEE 802.3bt-2018, allows it to power high-wattage PoE devices up to 100W, making it suitable for advanced networking equipment, security cameras, and wireless access points. Its 100% stranded copper wire ensures error-free data transmission and stable power delivery, outperforming lower-quality copper-clad aluminum alternatives. The braided construction enhances durability and resistance to damage from bending, ensuring longevity even in rigorous environments. This product is backed by a lifetime warranty and includes free multi-lingual technical support, providing peace of mind for professional and enterprise installations. Whether for new network deployments or upgrades, this shielded, eco-friendly Ethernet cable ensures fast, safe, and reliable network performance with a focus on safety and environmental responsibility.
