StarTech.com 6in Gray CAT6a Ethernet Cable with S/FTP Shielding and Gold-Plated Connectors

StarTech.com 6in Gray CAT6a Ethernet Cable, Snagless RJ45, 10G, 100W PoE, S/FTP, LSZH, 27AWG Pure Copper, 500MHz, Shielded Network Patch Cord

This StarTech.com NLGR-6IN-CAT6A-PATCH Ethernet cable provides a reliable and high-performance solution for demanding 10 Gbps network environments. Designed with shielded S/FTP construction, it ensures optimal data transmission with minimal interference, making it ideal for high-speed switches, NAS devices, and PoE applications. The cable's 27 AWG pure bare copper conductors deliver consistent conductivity and low resistance, while the aluminum-mylar foil and braided shield provide enhanced EMI protection, safeguarding your network against external noise sources. The flexible LSZH jacket ensures safety in enclosed or poorly ventilated spaces, emitting low smoke and toxic fumes in case of fire, which is essential for industrial, transportation, and residential installations. Equipped with snagless 50-micron gold-plated RJ-45 connectors, the cable ensures a secure fit and reduces wear over time, maintaining excellent contact quality for long-term performance. This patch cable supports Power over Ethernet (PoE++) up to 100W, allowing seamless connection of PoE-enabled devices such as IP cameras, access points, and other low-latency devices. Its backward compatibility with Cat 6 and Cat 5e standards facilitates smooth integration into existing networks. Certified by Fluke and individually tested to meet ANSI/TIA-568.2-D standards, the cable guarantees dependable performance and durability. Whether deploying a new 10GBASE-T network or upgrading an existing infrastructure, this shielded patch cord offers a compact, flexible, and safe solution for high-speed data and power delivery in various environments.
