Description

StarTech NLOR-30F-CAT6A-PATCH 30ft Cat6a Patch Cable

Overview

The StarTech NLOR-30F-CAT6A-PATCH is a 30-foot, snagless S/FTP (Screened/Foiled Twisted Pair) Cat6a patch cable designed to support 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GBASE-T) and 500 MHz bandwidth. Its construction minimizes electromagnetic interference (EMI) and crosstalk, ensuring signal integrity for demanding network applications. The snagless boot design protects the RJ45 connector tabs during installation and removal, preventing accidental disconnections and simplifying cable management in dense server racks or network closets.

Compatibility

This Cat6a cable is backward compatible with Cat6 and Cat5e networks, but its full 10Gbps performance is realized when connecting 10GBASE-T network devices. It is suitable for connecting servers, network switches, patch panels, and workstations that require high-speed data transmission. Use it to link devices within a data center, connect high-performance workstations to the network backbone, or ensure optimal performance for surveillance NVRs and cameras operating at 10Gbps.

Installation Notes

The snagless boot design on both ends of the NLOR-30F-CAT6A-PATCH prevents the RJ45 connector tab from being accidentally depressed when pulling the cable through tight spaces or when connecting/disconnecting it from equipment. This feature is particularly useful in high-density rack environments where accessibility is limited and cable damage is a concern. Ensure the cable is routed away from high-power electrical sources to further mitigate potential EMI.
