Description

StarTech N6PAT2RDS 2FT RED SLIM CAT6 ETHERNET CABLE, SNAGLESS, 100W POE, UTP, LSZH, 28AWG BARE COPP

Overview

The StarTech N6PAT2RDS is a 2-foot, red, slim Cat6 Ethernet cable engineered for high-power Power over Ethernet (PoE++) applications up to 100W. Its UTP (Unshielded Twisted Pair) construction with 28AWG stranded copper conductors ensures reliable data transmission up to 10 Gbps and 250 MHz. The Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) jacket material provides enhanced safety in environments where fire safety is critical, such as data centers or public spaces. This cable is designed to deliver both data and power to demanding devices like high-performance wireless access points, PTZ cameras, or other PoE-powered network equipment, minimizing the need for separate power supplies and simplifying installations. The snagless design protects the RJ45 connector tabs during installation.

Compatibility

This cable is compatible with any network device requiring a Cat6 Ethernet connection and supporting 100W PoE++ (802.3bt Type 4). It is suitable for use with StarTech's own range of PoE-powered devices, as well as third-party equipment such as IP cameras, wireless access points, VoIP phones, and network switches that adhere to the 100W PoE standard. The T568B wiring standard ensures broad compatibility with standard network infrastructure.

Installation Notes

The cable features a slim 0.1-inch (3.6 mm) outer diameter, facilitating easier routing in tight spaces and conduit. Its LSZH rating means it produces minimal smoke and no toxic halogenated compounds when exposed to fire, making it suitable for installations with strict safety regulations. The operating temperature range is 10°C to 60°C (50°F to 140°F), and storage temperature is -20°C to 60°C (-4°F to 140°F). Humidity tolerance is 10% to 80% RH.
