Description

StarTech N6PAT3BLS Slim Cat6 Network Cable

Overview

The StarTech N6PAT3BLS is a 3-foot, blue, Cat6 network patch cable designed to reduce installation clutter and support high-speed data transfer and Power over Ethernet (PoE++). Its significantly thinner profile compared to standard Cat6 cables makes it ideal for dense network racks, tight conduits, and environments where cable management is critical. This cable supports up to 10 Gbps data rates and 100W PoE++, ensuring reliable connectivity for demanding network devices like IP cameras, access points, and workstations.

Compatibility

This Cat6 cable is backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat5 standards. It is suitable for connecting network devices such as switches, routers, servers, and workstations. The 28 AWG wire gauge and stranded copper conductors ensure flexibility and durability for frequent handling. It supports 1000BASE-T (Gigabit Ethernet) and 10GBASE-T (10 Gigabit Ethernet) networks, making it compatible with most modern network infrastructure and PoE-enabled devices requiring up to 100W of power, such as high-power wireless access points or PTZ IP cameras.

Installation Notes

The cable features gold-plated RJ-45 connectors for optimal signal integrity and corrosion resistance. Its Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) rated jacket material makes it suitable for installations where fire safety regulations are stringent, minimizing the release of toxic fumes in case of fire. The operating temperature range is 10C to 60C (50F to 140F), and storage temperature is -20C to 60C (-4F to 140F). The cable is wired to the TIA/EIA-568-B.1-2001 T568B standard.
