StarTech.com 5m Gray Slim CAT6 | Slim PoE++ Network Cable
The StarTech.com 5m Gray Slim CAT6 Ethernet Cable, Snagless, 100W PoE, UTP, LSZH, 28AWG Pure Bare Copper Wire, Slim RJ45 Network Patch Cord w/Strain Reliefs, Individually Tested is built for dense network racks. It delivers Gigabit data and PoE++ power over a 5-metre run. This slim LSZH cable improves airflow in confined spaces. It suits UK offices and server rooms needing reliable connectivity.
Slim Profile for Better Airflow
This cable is 36% thinner than standard Cat6. It fits tightly in crowded patch panels. The reduced diameter boosts airflow and heat dissipation. So, equipment stays cooler in high-density racks.
Reliable Gigabit and PoE++ Performance
It supports 1000 Mbit/s data transfer and 100W PoE++. The 28AWG pure bare copper conductors ensure low resistance. Gold-plated contacts minimise signal loss. In practice, this powers switches and cameras reliably.
Snagless Boot for Easy Installation
The snagless boot protects RJ45 clips during routing. This reduces damage when pulling cables through narrow gaps. You get faster, safer deployments in tight spaces.
Certified LSZH Safety Jacket
The Low Smoke Zero Halogen jacket emits minimal toxic fumes. It suits poorly ventilated areas and compliance-focused sites. For example, use it in trains, aircraft, or UK residential builds.
Individually Tested for Signal Integrity
Each cable is Fluke® DSX2-8000 tested. It meets ANSI/TIA-568.2-D Category 6 specs. This ensures low crosstalk and return loss. So, your network stays stable under load.
