Blue 50ft CAT6a shielded ethernet cable with snagless RJ45 connectors

STARTECH

STARTECH NLBL-50F-CAT6A-PATCH 50ft Blue CAT6a network ethernet cable

SKU CH-9PPH-Y5ZH5 MPN NLBL-50F-CAT6A-PATCH

Shielded 50 ft CAT6a patch cable supports 10 GbE and 100 W PoE++ with snagless RJ45 connectors

  • Supports 10 GbE speeds with 500 MHz bandwidth
  • Delivers up to 100 W PoE++ power to devices
  • Snagless RJ45 connectors prevent tab damage during installs
  • S/FTP shielding with 27 AWG pure copper reduces interference
  • LSZH jacket and Fluke tested for safety compliance

50ft Blue CAT6a Shielded Cable

This 50-foot blue CAT6a patch cord uses S/FTP shielding and 27AWG pure bare copper conductors rated for 500 MHz bandwidth. It supports 10GbE data rates and carries up to 100W PoE++ power. The LSZH jacket meets low-smoke safety requirements. Fluke testing and ETL verification confirm performance.

Installers needing verified 10GbE runs

The cable suits installers who need a factory-tested, shielded 50-foot link for 10GbE and high-power PoE++. Buyers who require a different length, a non-shielded UTP design, or a PVC jacket instead of LSZH should select another product.

500 MHz bandwidth and 10GbE rating

The 500 MHz bandwidth and 10GbE rating are the decisive specifications. They determine whether the cable handles the required data throughput and crosstalk margins for the target network infrastructure.

Questions about this item

Does the 50ft CAT6a cable include everything needed to connect two devices, or do I need separate connectors?

The cable arrives with snagless RJ45 plugs already crimped on both ends, so no extra connectors or tools are required for a standard 10GbE link.

Should I choose this 50ft length or a different CAT6a cable for a 45ft run between patch panel and switch?

For a 45ft run the 50ft cable provides enough slack for routing and strain relief without exceeding the 100m channel limit for 10GbE.

What does the 500MHz rating mean when the cable is installed in a real 10GbE network carrying 100W PoE++?

The 500MHz bandwidth supports the full 10GbE signal up to 100 metres, while the 27AWG pure copper conductors deliver 100W PoE++ without overheating.
