Description

StarTech NLOR-20F-CAT6A-PATCH Snagless S/FTP Cat6a Patch Cable

Overview

The StarTech NLOR-20F-CAT6A-PATCH is a 20-foot snagless S/FTP (Shielded/Foiled Twisted Pair) Cat6a patch cable designed to support 10 Gigabit Ethernet and 500 MHz frequencies. Its construction ensures signal integrity for high-bandwidth applications, including 10GBASE-T networks and Power over Ethernet (PoE++) up to 100W. The LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket makes it suitable for deployments where fire safety regulations are critical, such as commercial buildings and data centers. This cable is ideal for connecting network devices like switches, routers, servers, and workstations where reliable, high-speed data transfer is paramount.

Compatibility

This Cat6a cable is backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat6 networks. It is designed for use with any RJ-45 equipped network devices, including but not limited to: 10GBASE-T network switches, routers, servers, network interface cards (NICs), and workstations. It supports 100W PoE++ (802.3bt Type 4), making it suitable for powering high-demand devices like PTZ cameras, wireless access points, and VoIP phones over a single Ethernet cable.

Installation Notes

The cable features stranded copper conductors (27 AWG) for flexibility and gold-plated RJ-45 connectors for optimal conductivity. The S/FTP shielding (Aluminum-Mylar foil with braid) minimizes electromagnetic interference (EMI) and crosstalk, crucial for maintaining signal quality at 10 Gbps. The snagless boot design protects the RJ-45 clips during installation and removal. Operating temperature range is 0°C to 50°C (32°F to 122°F).
