Description

StarTech C6ASPAT3BL CAT6a Ethernet Cable

Overview

The StarTech C6ASPAT3BL is a 3-foot CAT6a Ethernet cable designed to support 10 Gigabit Ethernet speeds up to 500 MHz. Its stranded copper conductors and aluminum-polyester foil shielding minimize crosstalk and interference, ensuring clean data transmission for demanding network applications like surveillance systems, data centers, and high-speed office networks. The CMG-rated PVC jacket makes it suitable for in-wall installations where fire safety is a concern. This cable supports up to 100W Power over Ethernet (PoE), simplifying deployment by eliminating the need for separate power supplies for compatible devices.

Compatibility

This CAT6a cable is backward compatible with CAT5e and CAT6 networks but is specifically engineered to meet the stringent requirements for 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GBASE-T) deployments. It is suitable for connecting network devices such as IP cameras, NVRs, network switches, servers, and workstations that require high-bandwidth, low-latency connections. The ETL verification ensures it meets performance standards for reliable data transfer. Use this cable for any network device requiring a stable, high-speed Ethernet link, especially where Power over Ethernet is utilized.

Installation Notes

The cable features stranded 26 AWG copper conductors, offering flexibility for installation in tight spaces. The operating and storage temperature range is -20°C to 80°C, and humidity tolerance is 15% to 65%. The cable jacket is PVC, and the shielding is an aluminum-polyester foil, providing robust protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI). Ensure connections are secure at both RJ-45 ports to maintain optimal performance and PoE delivery.
