StarTech.com 5ft Gray Cat6a Ethernet Cable with Snagless RJ45 Connectors - 10 Gbps, Shielded S/FTP, PoE++, LSZH Jacket

StarTech.com 5ft Gray CAT6a Ethernet Cable, Snagless RJ45, 10G, 100W PoE, S/FTP, LSZH, 27AWG Bare Copper, 500MHz, Shielded Network Patch Cord

Achieve high-speed, reliable network connections with the StarTech.com NLGR-5F-CAT6A-PATCH 5-foot Gray Cat6a Ethernet Cable. Designed for demanding 10 Gbps network environments, this shielded S/FTP cable provides up to 500MHz bandwidth, ensuring minimal signal interference and maximum throughput for data-intensive applications. Its durable construction and high-quality materials make it suitable for both industrial and residential deployments, supporting critical devices such as IP cameras, access points, and switches.
Constructed with 27 AWG pure bare copper wire, the cable guarantees consistent conductivity and low resistance, reducing signal loss over long runs. The individual shieldings—aluminum-mylar foil and tinned copper braid—protect against electromagnetic interference (EMI), which is essential in environments with high electronic noise. The snagless RJ45 connectors with 50-micron gold plating provide a secure, corrosion-resistant connection that minimizes wear and maintains optimal performance over time.
The LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) jacket enhances safety by emitting low toxic fumes and smoke during combustion, making it suitable for confined or poorly ventilated spaces such as data centers, trains, or aircraft. It supports Power over Ethernet (PoE++) standards up to 100W, allowing simultaneous data and power delivery to PoE devices like IP cameras, Wi-Fi access points, and VoE-enabled switches. Backward compatible with Cat 5e and Cat 6 standards, this cable seamlessly integrates into existing network setups.
Manufactured and tested according to ANSI/TIA-568.2-D standards, the cable has undergone rigorous testing to ensure reliable Cat6a performance. Its flexible design allows easy routing through tight spaces, and the shielded design guarantees minimal crosstalk and signal loss across the entire frequency range. This cable is ideal for high-speed data transfer, PoE applications, and environments requiring robust EMI protection, making it a versatile choice for modern network infrastructure.
