StarTech NLBK-12F-CAT6A-PATCH 12ft Cat6a LSZH Ethernet Cable
Overview
This 12-foot black StarTech NLBK-12F-CAT6A-PATCH cable provides a reliable, high-performance connection for network devices. Its Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) jacket makes it suitable for installations where fire safety and minimal smoke emission are critical, such as in data centers, public buildings, or industrial environments. The cable supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet speeds up to 500MHz, ensuring it can handle demanding network traffic and power delivery requirements.
Compatibility
This Cat6a cable is backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat6 networks but is engineered for the higher bandwidth demands of Cat6a. It is suitable for connecting network devices such as IP cameras, network switches, servers, workstations, and NVRs that require 10Gbps connectivity. The 100W PoE++ support ensures it can reliably deliver power to compatible devices over the Ethernet cable, eliminating the need for separate power supplies for devices like high-power wireless access points or PTZ cameras.
Installation Notes
The cable features 27 AWG stranded copper conductors for flexibility and durability, and 50-micron gold-plated RJ45 connectors for optimal signal integrity. It is rated for operation between 0°C and 50°C (32°F to 122°F) and can be stored between -20°C and 60°C (-4°F to 140°F). The LSZH jacket material is designed to emit minimal smoke and no corrosive halogenated compounds when exposed to high heat or fire.
