Description

StarTech C6ASPAT6INGR CAT6a Patch Cable

Overview

The StarTech C6ASPAT6INGR is a 6-inch CAT6a patch cable designed to deliver reliable 10 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity in noise-sensitive environments. Its short length minimizes signal degradation and cable clutter, making it ideal for connecting network devices in server racks, patch panels, or directly between close-proximity equipment. The shielded construction protects against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI), ensuring data integrity for critical surveillance or automation systems.

Compatibility

This CAT6a cable is backward compatible with CAT5e and CAT6 networks, but is optimized for CAT6a infrastructure to achieve 10 Gigabit Ethernet speeds up to 100 meters. It supports ANSI/TIA-568.2-D standards and is suitable for connecting network switches, routers, servers, IP cameras, and other network-enabled devices that require high-speed, stable data transmission. It supports up to 100W PoE, making it suitable for powering devices like IP cameras or wireless access points.

Installation Notes

Constructed with 26 AWG stranded copper conductors and an aluminum-polyester foil shield, this cable offers flexibility and durability. The CMG (Communications Multipurpose Cable, General Use) fire rating indicates it is suitable for use within walls and between floors in most commercial buildings. Operating and storage temperatures range from -20°C to 80°C, with humidity tolerance between 15% and 65%.
