StarTech.com 1m CAT6 Ethernet Cable | LSZH 10GbE Patch Cord

The StarTech.com 1m CAT6 Ethernet Cable – LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) – 10 Gigabit 250Mhz 100W PoE RJ45 10GbE UTP Network Patch Cord Snagless with Strain Relief – Blue, CAT 6, ETL… is built for UK IT professionals. It delivers reliable 10 Gigabit performance for high-density racks. This cable uses 100% copper conductors for stable power and data. It is ideal for connecting servers, switches, and PoE devices in modern networks.

Technical Specifications

Reliable 10 Gigabit Connectivity

This CAT6 cable supports error-free Multi-Gigabit speeds up to 10Gbps. It handles 1Gbps, 2.5Gbps, and 5Gbps connections seamlessly. The 650 MHz bandwidth ensures minimal signal loss over the full 1-metre run. Because it is U/UTP construction, it reduces electromagnetic interference in busy racks. You can connect network interface cards, routers, and NAS devices without speed bottlenecks.

Certified Safety with LSZH Jacket

The cable features a Low Smoke Zero Halogen jacket. This material produces lower levels of toxic fumes during a fire. It also generates less white smoke, improving visibility for evacuation. This makes it a safer choice for enclosed office spaces and server rooms. The PVC-free design meets strict environmental and safety standards for UK installations.

100W PoE Support with Copper Core

This cable is built with 100% bare copper wire, not CCA. It supports continuous 100W power throughput for PoE devices. It complies with IEEE 802.3bt Type 4 standards for high-power delivery. The 24AWG conductors manage heat dissipation effectively during prolonged use. This ensures stable power for IP cameras, VoIP phones, and laptops.

Professional Construction and Strain Relief

The snagless boot protects the RJ45 clip during installation. It prevents the cable from catching on conduit or rack edges. A 40mm bend radius offers strong molded strain relief and flexibility. Gold-plated connectors ensure consistent contact quality. The blue 1-metre length helps organise patch panels clearly.

Lab Tested and ETL Verified

StarTech.com tests each cable using a Fluke DSX2-8000 CableAnalyzer. It meets ANSI/TIA-568.2-D Category 6 specifications. This testing minimises Near-End Crosstalk (NEXT) and Return Loss (RL). The cable is ETL Verified for performance and safety. It also carries CE and RoHS compliance certificates for UK standards.
