StarTech.com 3m White Slim CAT6 Ethernet Cable, 100W PoE, UTP, 28AWG, Snagless

StarTech.com 3m White Slim CAT6 Cable | 100W PoE++ & LSZH

This StarTech.com 3m 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 delivers Gigabit connectivity in tight spaces. It is designed for high-density racks, patch panels, and office environments. The slim 28AWG construction improves airflow and routing flexibility. It supports PoE++ devices like switches and cameras.

Slim 28AWG Design for High-Density Racks

The 3.6 mm outer diameter is 36% thinner than standard Cat6 cables. This slim profile increases airflow in crowded racks. It also reduces cable bundle strain. The round LSZH jacket stays flexible for easier pulls. Because it is snagless, the boot protects the RJ45 clip during installation.

100W PoE++ Power Delivery

This cable supports IEEE 802.3bt PoE++ (4PPoE). It delivers up to 100 W to powered devices. Use it for PoE switches, boardroom cameras, or access points. The 28AWG pure bare copper conductor ensures low resistance. So, power transfer remains efficient over the 3 m run.

Certified Gigabit Performance

It meets ANSI/TIA-568.2-D Category 6 specifications. Each cable is individually tested with a Fluke DSX2-8000 CableAnalyzer. This verifies low Near-End Crosstalk (NEXT) and Return Loss. The U/UTP (UTP) construction supports 250 MHz frequency. It handles 10/100/1000Base-T(X) networks reliably.

LSZH Safety and Durability

The Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) jacket emits minimal smoke and fumes if exposed to heat. This suits industrial settings, trains, and aircraft. Gold-plated RJ45 contacts resist corrosion and wear. The snagless boot prevents clip damage during frequent moves.
