StarTech NLAQ-25F-CAT6A-PATCH 25ft Cat6a LSZH Ethernet Cable
Overview
The StarTech NLAQ-25F-CAT6A-PATCH is a 25-foot aqua-colored Ethernet patch cable designed for high-speed data transmission and robust power delivery. Its Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) jacket makes it suitable for installations where fire safety and reduced smoke emission are critical, such as in plenum spaces or public buildings. This cable supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet speeds up to 500MHz and is rated for 100W PoE++ (802.3bt), ensuring reliable connectivity and power for demanding network devices like IP cameras, access points, and high-power switches.
Compatibility
This CAT6a cable is backward compatible with CAT5e and CAT6 networks but is specifically engineered to meet the stringent requirements for 10GbE performance. It is compatible with any network device utilizing an RJ-45 connector, including but not limited to: StarTech's own line of network-attached storage (NAS) devices, high-performance workstations, servers, and any IP surveillance equipment requiring stable, high-bandwidth connections. Its 100W PoE++ support makes it ideal for powering high-demand devices like PTZ cameras or Wi-Fi 6E access points.
Installation Notes
The cable features stranded 27 AWG copper conductors for flexibility and ease of routing, with a 0.2-inch (5.7 mm) outer diameter. The RJ-45 connectors are 50-micron gold-plated to ensure superior conductivity and corrosion resistance. 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 LSZH jacket material is crucial for installations requiring compliance with fire safety codes, minimizing toxic fumes and smoke in case of fire.
