STARTECH N6PAT20RDS network ethernet cable 20ft red Cat6 10Gbps 100W PoE++ 28AWG LSZH

SKU CH-AVKG-V4S0B MPN N6PAT20RDS

Slim Cat6 cable supports 10 Gbps and 100W PoE++ with 36% reduced diameter for dense installs

  • 36% slimmer diameter frees airflow in dense racks
  • 10 Gbps throughput and 100 W PoE++ power over one cable
  • 50-micron gold-plated contacts minimise signal loss
  • LSZH jacket emits low toxic fumes if combusted
  • Fluke tested to ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 for guaranteed Cat6 performance

Slim Cat6 for dense installs

This 20-foot red Cat6 cable is 36% slimmer than standard Cat6 at 3.6mm diameter. It targets network closets and panels where cable density restricts airflow and access. The slim profile simplifies routing in tight spaces while maintaining full Cat6 performance. Buyers needing standard-diameter patch cables for open rack runs will not benefit from the reduced bulk.

10Gbps and 100W PoE++ headroom

The 28AWG pure bare copper conductors support 10Gbps at 250MHz with low NEXT and return loss. It delivers up to 100W under IEEE 802.3bt Type 4 for PoE++ devices such as IP cameras. Runs exceeding the 20-foot length or environments requiring shielded cabling for EMI protection are outside this cable's design envelope.

Snagless gold RJ45 and LSZH jacket

Snagless 50-micron gold-plated contacts ensure precise mating and minimal signal loss. The low-smoke zero-halogen jacket meets ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 and is suited for enclosed or poorly ventilated areas. The cable requires compatible RJ45 ports and PoE++ power sourcing equipment to utilise its full power and data capability.

Questions about this item

Will this slim 28AWG Cat6 cable work reliably with my existing 10Gbps switch ports?

Yes, the cable is rated for 10Gbps at 250MHz and complies with ANSI/TIA-568-C.2 Cat6 standards, so it will perform to spec on your current 10Gbps ports.

How can I verify the 100W PoE++ capability is functioning after I connect my devices?

The cable uses 28AWG pure bare copper conductors and 50-micron gold-plated contacts; confirm operation by checking that your PoE++ device powers up and negotiates the full 100W budget at the switch.

Does the 20ft red cable come with any extra connectors or do I only get the two snagless RJ45 ends already attached?

Only the two factory-terminated snagless RJ45 plugs are included; no additional couplers, keystones or tools are supplied in the package.
