Description

StarTech NLBL-4F-CAT6A-PATCH 4ft Cat6a LSZH Ethernet Cable

Overview

The StarTech NLBL-4F-CAT6A-PATCH is a 4-foot, blue, shielded Cat6a Ethernet cable designed for high-speed network deployments where data integrity and safety are paramount. Its Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) jacket makes it suitable for environments with strict fire safety regulations, such as public buildings, data centers, and industrial facilities. This cable supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet speeds up to 500 MHz 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 Wi-Fi access points.

Compatibility

This Cat6a cable is backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat6 networks but is optimized for Cat6a performance. It is compatible with any network device featuring an RJ-45 port, including servers, workstations, switches, routers, and IP surveillance equipment from brands such as Axis, Hanwha, Hikvision, Dahua, and Ubiquiti. The 50-micron gold-plated RJ-45 connectors ensure robust physical connections and signal integrity.

Installation Notes

The cable operates within a temperature range of 0°C to 50°C (32°F to 122°F). The 27 AWG stranded copper conductors provide flexibility, while the shielded construction with 50-micron gold-plated connectors mitigates EMI interference, crucial for maintaining signal quality in electrically noisy environments. The LSZH jacket material reduces the emission of toxic and corrosive gases when exposed to heat or flame, making it a safer choice for indoor installations.
