StarTech NLGR-6F-CAT6A-PATCH 6ft Cat6a Ethernet Cable
Overview
The StarTech NLGR-6F-CAT6A-PATCH is a 6-foot gray Cat6a Ethernet cable designed for high-speed, reliable network connections. It addresses the need for robust cabling in environments requiring 10 Gigabit Ethernet performance and high power delivery via Power over Ethernet (PoE). The snagless design prevents connector damage during installation, crucial for maintaining network integrity in server rooms, data centers, or any professional IT setup. Its LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket makes it suitable for installations where fire safety regulations are stringent.
Compatibility
This Cat6a cable is backward compatible with Cat6 and Cat5e standards, but it is optimized for Cat6a network equipment. It supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GBASE-T) up to 100 meters (328 feet). The 100W PoE rating ensures it can safely carry sufficient power for high-demand PoE devices such as IP cameras, wireless access points, and VoIP phones without overheating or signal degradation. It is compatible with any standard RJ45 network port found on switches, routers, servers, and client devices.
Installation Notes
The cable features snagless RJ45 connectors, which protect the locking tab from breaking during insertion or removal from ports. The 27AWG wire gauge provides a good balance between flexibility and signal integrity for 10Gbps transmission. The S/FTP (Screened/Foiled Twisted Pair) construction, with individual foil shielding on each pair and an overall braid screen, minimizes electromagnetic interference (EMI) and crosstalk, ensuring cleaner signals, particularly in environments with high electrical noise. The LSZH jacket reduces the emission of toxic fumes and smoke in case of fire, making it compliant with strict safety standards for indoor installations.
