Description

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

Overview

This 10-foot red Cat6a patch cable provides a reliable, high-performance link for demanding network environments. It's engineered to support 10 Gigabit Ethernet speeds and up to 100W of Power over Ethernet (PoE), making it suitable for powering high-demand devices like IP cameras, access points, or network switches. The snagless design prevents connector damage during installation, ensuring a clean deployment. The NLRD-10F-CAT6A-PATCH is ideal for use in data centers, server rooms, or any location requiring robust, high-speed network connectivity.

Compatibility

This Cat6a cable is backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat6 networks, but is optimized for Cat6a infrastructure. It supports 10/100/1000 Mbps and 10 Gbps Ethernet speeds, making it compatible with a wide range of network devices including managed switches, routers, IP cameras, NVRs, and servers. The 100W PoE rating ensures compatibility with high-power PoE devices adhering to IEEE 802.3bt standards.

Installation Notes

The cable jacket is LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) rated, suitable for installations where fire safety regulations require reduced smoke and halogen emissions. Operating temperature range is 0°C to 50°C (32°F to 122°F), and storage temperature range is -20°C to 60°C (-4°F to 140°F). The 27 AWG stranded copper conductors offer flexibility and durability for frequent handling.
