Description

StarTech NLPL-10F-CAT6A-PATCH 10ft Cat6a Ethernet Cable

Overview

This 10-foot purple StarTech NLPL-10F-CAT6A-PATCH cable provides a reliable connection for high-bandwidth network devices, supporting up to 10 Gbps data transfer rates. Its LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket material is critical for deployments in plenum spaces or environments where fire safety is paramount, reducing toxic smoke and corrosive byproducts in case of fire. The snagless RJ45 connectors prevent damage during installation and removal, ensuring a secure fit. This cable is engineered to handle up to 100W of PoE (Power over Ethernet), making it suitable for powering devices like IP cameras, access points, or VoIP phones without needing separate power adapters.

Compatibility

This CAT6a cable is backward compatible with CAT5e and CAT6 networks but is optimized for CAT6a performance. It is suitable for connecting any network device requiring a 10 Gbps connection, including but not limited to: IP surveillance cameras, network switches, routers, servers, and workstations. It supports TIA/EIA-T568B wiring standards, ensuring interoperability with standard network infrastructure.

Installation Notes

The cable features stranded copper conductors for flexibility, ideal for routing through conduits or tight spaces. The operating temperature range is 0°C to 50°C (32°F to 122°F), and storage temperature ranges from -20°C to 60°C (-4°F to 140°F). The cable jacket has an outer diameter of 0.2 inches (5.7 mm).
