Description

StarTech C6ASPAT1BK 1ft Cat6a Shielded Ethernet Cable

Overview

The StarTech C6ASPAT1BK is a 1-foot Cat6a Ethernet patch cable designed to deliver reliable 10 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity. Its shielded construction mitigates noise and electromagnetic interference (EMI/RFI), making it suitable for environments where signal integrity is critical, such as connecting network-attached storage (NAS) devices, servers, or high-performance workstations. The short 1-foot length minimizes cable clutter and signal degradation in dense rack deployments.

Compatibility

This cable is compatible with any network device featuring an RJ-45 Ethernet port, including but not limited to: StarTech network-attached storage (NAS) devices, servers, switches, routers, and workstations. It supports all network speeds up to 10 Gbps, including 100/1000 Mbps. It is backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat6 cabling standards.

Installation Notes

The cable features stranded copper conductors (26 AWG) for flexibility and a PVC jacket with an aluminum-polyester foil shield. It is CMG rated for in-wall use and supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) up to 100W, ensuring it can power compatible devices without requiring a separate power source. Operating and storage temperatures range from -20°C to 80°C (-4°F to 176°F).
