StarTech.com 1.5m White Slim CAT6 Ethernet Cable, 100W PoE, UTP, 28AWG

StarTech.com 1.5m White Slim CAT6 | 100W PoE+ Patch Cable

This StarTech.com 1.5m White 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 designed for high‑density racks. It delivers reliable Gigabit connectivity with PoE++ power. The slim 28AWG construction improves airflow. It is ideal for crowded patch panels and tight spaces.

Slim 28AWG Design for Better Airflow

This cable is 36% thinner than standard Cat6. It increases airflow in dense racks. The reduced diameter also improves flexibility. You can route it easily between devices. This helps maintain cooler operating temperatures.

100W PoE++ Power Support

The cable supports IEEE 802.3bt PoE++. It delivers up to 100W of power. This is suitable for powered switches and cameras. The 28AWG pure bare copper conductors ensure low resistance. They maintain stable power delivery over the 1.5m length.

LSZH Jacket for Safer Installations

The jacket is Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH). It emits minimal smoke and toxic fumes if exposed to heat. This is critical for enclosed industrial areas. It also suits transport environments like trains and aircraft. Always confirm local building code compliance for your specific installation.

Individually Tested for Signal Integrity

Each cable is tested with a Fluke DSX2‑8000 CableAnalyzer. It meets ANSI/TIA‑568.2‑D Category 6 specifications. This ensures low Near‑End Crosstalk (NEXT) and Return Loss. You get consistent Gigabit performance. The gold‑plated RJ45 contacts minimise signal loss.

Snagless Connectors for Easy Routing

The snagless boot protects the RJ45 clips during installation. This reduces snags when routing through narrow gaps. It prevents accidental breakage. The strain reliefs add durability at the connector ends. This extends the cable’s operational life.
