StarTech NLBL-6F-CAT6A-PATCH 6ft Cat6a Patch Cable
Overview
The StarTech NLBL-6F-CAT6A-PATCH is a 6-foot blue Cat6a Ethernet patch cable designed for high-speed data transmission and enhanced safety in demanding environments. Its Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) jacket makes it suitable for installations where fire safety regulations are critical, such as in commercial buildings, data centers, or public spaces. This cable supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet speeds up to 500 MHz, ensuring robust performance for network infrastructure, surveillance systems, and Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications. The NLBL-6F-CAT6A-PATCH is engineered to deliver reliable connectivity where standard PVC jacketed cables may not meet safety requirements.
Compatibility
This Cat6a cable is backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat6 networks, but is optimized for Cat6a infrastructure. It is suitable for connecting network devices such as IP cameras, NVRs, switches, routers, and servers. The 50-micro gold-plated RJ-45 connectors ensure a clean signal path and corrosion resistance, critical for maintaining data integrity in surveillance deployments. It supports 100W PoE++ (802.3bt), making it ideal for powering high-demand devices like PTZ cameras or wireless access points without requiring separate power injectors.
Installation Notes
The cable jacket is constructed from Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) material, which emits minimal smoke and no toxic halogenated compounds when exposed to fire, adhering to safety standards. The operating temperature range is 0°C to 50°C (32°F to 122°F), suitable for most indoor installations. The stranded copper conductors (27 AWG) provide flexibility, aiding in cable management within racks or conduits. Storage temperature should be maintained between -20°C to 60°C (-4°F to 140°F) to preserve cable integrity.
