StarTech NLBL-2F-CAT6A-PATCH 2ft Cat6a LSZH Ethernet Cable
Overview
The StarTech NLBL-2F-CAT6A-PATCH is a 2-foot, blue Cat6a Ethernet cable designed for high-speed data transmission and Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications. Its Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) jacket makes it suitable for installations where fire safety regulations are stringent, such as in commercial buildings, data centers, and public spaces. This cable supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet speeds up to 500MHz and is rated for up to 100W of PoE++ power, ensuring reliable connectivity for demanding network devices like IP cameras, access control systems, and high-density network switches. The stranded copper conductors provide flexibility, while the S/FTP (Shielded/Foiled Twisted Pair) construction offers robust protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI).
Compatibility
This Cat6a cable is backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat6 networks. It is suitable for connecting any RJ-45 network device, including but not limited to: StarTech IP cameras, network switches, routers, servers, and workstations. Its 100W PoE++ rating makes it ideal for powering high-demand devices such as PTZ cameras, wireless access points, and VoIP phones that require more power than standard PoE or PoE+ can deliver.
Installation Notes
The cable jacket is rated for operating temperatures between 0°C and 50°C (32°F to 122°F). Storage temperature range is -20°C to 60°C (-4°F to 140°F). The cable is 27 AWG stranded copper, offering flexibility for routing in tight spaces. The LSZH jacket minimizes toxic and corrosive fumes in case of fire, making it a safer choice for indoor environments.
