StarTech.com 7.5m CAT6a LSZH Blue S/FTP Network Cable – 10GbE 500MHz PoE++

StarTech.com 7.5m CAT6a | Blue LSZH Shielded Cable

The StarTech.com 7.5m CAT6a Ethernet Cable – Blue – Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) – 10GbE 500MHz 100W PoE++ Snagless RJ-45 w/Strain Reliefs S/FTP Network Patch Cord is for UK network installs needing 10GbE speed and PoE++ power. It uses S/FTP shielding to cut EMI and RF noise. The LSZH jacket is safer for buildings. Because it is 7.5m long, it fits standard rack-to-desk runs. So, it suits offices, studios, and industrial sites.

Slim Specs

10GbE Performance with S/FTP Shielding

This cable supports 10GBase-T at 500 MHz. S/FTP shielding blocks EMI and RFI in dense cable trays. Because the conductors are copper, signal integrity stays stable. So, you get reliable multi-gigabit links over 7.5m.

100W PoE++ for High-Power Devices

It complies with IEEE 802.3bt-2018 for 100W PoE++. This supports Type 4 devices like PTZ cameras and APs. However, your switch must supply 100W PoE++. Confirm your switch budget before deployment.

LSZH Jacket for Safer Installations

Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) reduces toxic fumes in a fire. This improves visibility for evacuations. It is more eco-friendly than PVC. However, confirm local building code compliance for your site.

Snagless RJ-45 with Strain Relief

Snagless boots protect the latch during routing. Integrated strain relief prevents sharp bends at the connector. This reduces damage risk during pulls. So, the cable lasts longer in busy racks.

ETL Verified to ANSI/TIA-568.2-D

ETL verification confirms insertion loss, return loss, and crosstalk limits. The STP shielding is tested for EMI resistance. This ensures stable 10G performance over longer runs. However, always test links after install.
