Description

StarTech N6PAT6YLS 6ft Yellow Slim Cat6 Ethernet Cable

Overview

The StarTech N6PAT6YLS is a 6-foot, yellow, slim Cat6 Ethernet cable designed for high-power Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications, supporting up to 100W (IEEE 802.3bt Type 4). Its Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) jacket makes it suitable for installations where fire safety and minimal smoke emission are critical, such as in commercial buildings, data centers, and surveillance systems. The 28AWG stranded copper conductors ensure flexibility and reliable data transmission up to 10 Gbps, while the snagless design simplifies installation by protecting the RJ45 connector tabs. This cable is engineered to meet the demands of modern network devices requiring significant power delivery without compromising data integrity.

Compatibility

This cable is compatible with any network device requiring a Cat6 Ethernet connection and supporting 100W PoE++ (IEEE 802.3bt Type 4). It is suitable for powering high-demand devices such as advanced IP cameras with PTZ and IR capabilities, high-density wireless access points, and other PoE-powered equipment that draws up to 100W. The TIA/EIA-568-B.1-2001 T568B wiring standard ensures broad interoperability with standard network infrastructure.

Installation Notes

The cable features a slim 0.1-inch (3.6 mm) outer diameter and 28AWG stranded copper conductors, offering enhanced flexibility for routing in tight spaces. The LSZH jacket material requires careful handling during installation to avoid damage, as it is designed to produce less smoke when exposed to fire. 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). The gold-plated connectors provide durable, corrosion-resistant contact points for optimal signal transmission.
