STARTECH N6PAT30BLS 30ft Blue Slim Cat6 network ethernet cable 28AWG 10Gbps 100W PoE++

SKU CH-R4WH-W0BQ3 MPN N6PAT30BLS

A slim Cat6 cable 36% thinner than standard, supporting 10Gbps and 100W PoE++ over 30ft with gold-plated contacts and LSZH jacket

  • 36% slimmer diameter improves airflow in dense racks
  • 10 Gbps throughput supports high-speed 10G networks
  • 100W PoE++ powers cameras and access points directly
  • 28AWG bare copper with gold contacts ensures reliable signal
  • LSZH jacket emits low toxic fumes for safer enclosed spaces

Slim Cat6 cable for dense installs

This 30-foot blue Cat6 patch cable uses a 3.6 mm outer diameter that is 36% slimmer than standard Cat6, making it easier to route through crowded network closets and cable management panels. The reduced bulk improves airflow between devices and simplifies troubleshooting access. It terminates in snagless RJ45 connectors with 50-micron gold-plated contacts for a secure, low-loss connection.

Thermals noise and power in normal use

The Low-Smoke Zero Halogen jacket meets safety requirements for enclosed or poorly ventilated spaces by emitting minimal toxic fumes if combusted. As a passive copper cable it generates no heat, produces no noise and draws no power of its own. It supports IEEE 802.3bt Type 4 PoE++ delivery up to 100 watts, allowing compatible devices such as IP cameras to receive both data and power over a single run.

Build fit and what it frees up

Fluke tested and compliant with ANSI/TIA-568-C.2, the cable guarantees 10 Gbps throughput at 250 MHz over 28 AWG pure bare copper conductors. The slim profile frees valuable space in high-density racks and reduces cable congestion without sacrificing certified Cat6 performance. It is not suited for buyers who need shielded construction or outdoor-rated jackets.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 30ft slim Cat6 cable without damaging the snagless RJ45 connectors?

Route the 3.6mm diameter cable through tight spaces using its flexible LSZH jacket, then press each gold-plated RJ45 plug straight into the port until the snagless latch clicks; avoid angling the connector which can bend the 50-micron contacts.

What maintenance or replacement will the 28AWG bare copper conductors need over time?

The solid copper cores require no scheduled maintenance; inspect the LSZH jacket and snagless boots during rack audits and replace the cable only if the jacket is kinked, the latch is broken, or Fluke-tested performance drops below 250MHz.

What limit appears first when the cable carries 100W PoE++ continuously at 10Gbps?

The 28AWG conductor gauge sets the practical limit; sustained 100W Type 4 power delivery causes temperature rise in the slim 3.6mm bundle, so keep runs below 30ft and ensure airflow to stay within IEEE 802.3bt thermal limits.
