Description

StarTech C6ASPAT2BL 2ft Cat6a Ethernet Cable

Overview

The StarTech C6ASPAT2BL is a 2-foot (0.6m) Cat6a Ethernet patch cable designed to deliver robust 10 Gigabit Ethernet performance. Its construction includes foil-shielded twisted pairs to mitigate electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI), ensuring signal integrity in noisy environments. This cable is ideal for short-run, high-bandwidth connections in network closets, server racks, or between network devices where clean data transmission is critical. The CMG rating signifies its suitability for in-wall, general-purpose network installations.

Compatibility

This Cat6a cable is backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat6 networks but is optimized for Cat6a performance. It supports 100W Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications, making it suitable for powering devices like IP cameras, wireless access points, or VoIP phones without requiring a separate power source. It complies with ANSI/TIA-568.2-D standards and is ETL Verified for performance assurance, ensuring it meets the stringent requirements for 10 Gigabit Ethernet up to 500 MHz.

Installation Notes

The cable features stranded copper conductors, providing flexibility for easier routing in tight spaces compared to solid core cables. The 26 AWG wire gauge and 0.2-inch (6.3 mm) outer diameter offer a balance between flexibility and durability. Operating and storage temperatures range from -20°C to 80°C, with humidity tolerance between 15% and 65%. The PVC jacket material offers good abrasion resistance.
