StarTech.com 50cm CAT6a White LSZH Cable | 10GbE Snagless Patch

The StarTech.com 50cm CAT6a Ethernet Cable – White – Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) – 10GbE 500MHz 100W PoE++ Snagless RJ-45 w/Strain Reliefs S/FTP Network Patch Cord is built for dense network racks. It delivers 10GbE performance with robust EMI shielding. This cable supports PoE++ devices up to 100W. The LSZH jacket improves safety in public buildings. It suits UK data centres and modern offices.

Specification Overview

10GbE Performance with S/FTP Shielding

This cable supports 10GBase-T over a short 0.5m run. The S/FTP shielding reduces electromagnetic interference. It also limits alien crosstalk in crowded racks. So your connection stays stable near power devices. The 500 MHz frequency rating meets CAT6a demands. Use it for switches, servers, and NAS links.

PoE++ Power for High-Demand Devices

It complies with IEEE 802.3bt-2018 for PoE++. This supports 100W power delivery to Type 4 devices. For example, it can power advanced APs or PTZ cameras. The stranded copper conductors handle frequent flex. In practice, this reduces wear in tight racks. Always confirm your switch supports 100W PoE++.

LSZH Safety for UK Buildings

The Low Smoke Zero Halogen jacket reduces toxic fumes. In a fire, it limits smoke and corrosive gases. This improves evacuation visibility for staff and responders. It is more eco-friendly than standard PVC jackets. Also check local building regulations for LSZH use. This cable suits offices, schools, and public spaces.

Snagless RJ-45 with Strain Relief

The snagless boot protects the RJ-45 latch during routing. It prevents clips catching on cable bundles. Integrated strain relief reduces sharp bend angles. This helps maintain signal integrity at the connector. The connectors are straight and male on both ends. They suit standard RJ-45 ports without adapters.

ETL Verified and Compliance

The cable is ETL Verified to ANSI/TIA-568.2-D. Independent testing confirms insertion loss and crosstalk limits. The STP shielding is verified for EMI resistance. It carries CE and RoHS compliance certificates. However, UKCA status is not specified. Confirm regional marking needs with your procurement team.
