STARTECH NLYL-6F-CAT6A-PATCH network ethernet cable 6ft Yellow CAT6a 10G 100W PoE S/FTP LSZH 27AWG

SKU CH-WZEN-4VFGT MPN NLYL-6F-CAT6A-PATCH

Supports 10Gbps and 500MHz for 10GBASE-T networks with 100W PoE

  • 10 Gbps speed backed by 500 MHz Cat6a bandwidth
  • 100 W PoE delivery over 27 AWG shielded copper
  • Low-smoke zero-halogen jacket reduces toxic fumes in fire
  • Snagless gold-plated RJ45 connectors resist damage on repeated use

6ft Yellow Cat6a Cable for 10G Networks

This six-foot yellow Cat6a patch cable is built for 10Gbps Ethernet links in data centres, offices or home labs. Its S/FTP shielding and 27AWG bare-copper conductors keep near-end crosstalk and return loss low, while the LSZH jacket meets low-smoke safety requirements. Gold-plated snagless RJ45 connectors simplify dense patch-panel work. The cable carries up to 100W of Power over Ethernet for access points or cameras.

10Gbps and 500MHz bandwidth decide fit

The single specification that determines suitability is the 10Gbps, 500MHz rating; choose this cable only when your switch ports and NICs run at 10GBASE-T. It will not benefit slower 1Gbps links, and it cannot replace fibre for longer runs. Buyers who need longer reach, higher PoE wattage or a different jacket rating should select another product.

Questions about this item

How does the 10 Gbps rating perform when the cable is installed in a live 10GBASE-T network?

The 10 Gbps rating means the cable supports full 10GBASE-T throughput up to its 6 ft length, with S/FTP shielding and 27 AWG bare copper keeping near-end crosstalk and return loss low.

What does the 100 W PoE capability actually allow on the RJ45 interface?

The RJ45 connectors are rated to carry 100 W Power over Ethernet, so the cable can supply high-power devices such as PTZ cameras or access points without needing a separate power run.
