Description

StarTech NLOR-2F-CAT6A-PATCH 2ft Cat6a Patch Cable

Overview

The StarTech NLOR-2F-CAT6A-PATCH is a 2-foot, snagless Cat6a patch cable engineered for high-speed networking environments. Its construction supports 10Gbps data transfer rates and 500MHz bandwidth, making it suitable for demanding applications like 10GBASE-T networks, high-performance workstations, and server interconnects. The cable's 100W PoE++ support ensures it can reliably power high-demand network devices without requiring separate power injectors, simplifying deployment in data centers and enterprise networks. The orange, low-smoke zero-halogen (LSZH) jacket is designed for safety in plenum spaces and environments where fire safety is critical.

Compatibility

This Cat6a cable is backward compatible with Cat6 and Cat5e networks, but is specifically designed to meet the stringent requirements of 10GBASE-T Ethernet. It is compatible with any network device requiring a Cat6a connection, including 10 Gigabit Ethernet switches, routers, servers, and network-attached storage (NAS) devices. The TIA/EIA-T568B wiring standard ensures broad compatibility with standard networking infrastructure.

Installation Notes

The cable features stranded copper conductors for flexibility, ideal for frequent moves, adds, or changes. The snagless boot design protects the RJ45 connector tabs during installation and removal, preventing accidental disconnections. With an operating temperature range of 0°C to 50°C, it is suitable for standard indoor IT environments. The 27 AWG wire gauge and 0.2-inch (5.7 mm) outer diameter provide a balance of flexibility and durability.
