Aqua 1 ft Cat6a patch cable with snagless RJ-45 connectors and strain reliefs

STARTECH

STARTECH NLAQ-1F-CAT6A-PATCH network ethernet cable 1ft aqua LSZH 10GbE 500MHz 100W PoE++

SKU CH-ACWC-Y98HK MPN NLAQ-1F-CAT6A-PATCH

A 1 ft aqua Cat6a patch cable with LSZH jacket rated for 10 GbE, 500 MHz and 100 W PoE++

  • Supports 10 GbE speeds for high-bandwidth networks
  • 500 MHz bandwidth enables reliable 10G performance
  • LSZH jacket reduces toxic smoke in fire events
  • 100 W PoE++ delivers power to demanding devices
  • Snagless RJ-45 connectors with strain relief protect ports

1 ft aqua CAT6a patch cord

This one-foot aqua patch cord is built to CAT6a performance with S/FTP shielding and LSZH jacket material. It targets installers and network technicians who need a short, low-smoke link for 10 GbE runs in dense racks or plenum-adjacent spaces. The snagless RJ-45 ends and moulded strain reliefs simplify repeat mating in tight cable managers.

Sustained 10 GbE throughput

The 500 MHz rated bandwidth supports continuous 10 GbE signalling across the full metre without the error bursts seen on lower-category cords. S/FTP construction rejects alien crosstalk in high-density bundles, keeping latency stable during prolonged backup windows or storage replication jobs. LSZH insulation maintains electrical properties while meeting low-smoke requirements in regulated corridors.

100 W PoE++ power delivery

Each conductor pair is qualified for 100 W PoE++ so the cord can feed high-draw access points, PTZ cameras or compact switches without a local injector. The 45-contact gold plating resists oxidation through hundreds of re-terminations in humid environments up to 85 % RH. Buyers needing longer reach or different colour coding for zone identification should select another length or jacket hue.

Highlights

  • Supports 10 GbE speeds for high-bandwidth networks
  • 500 MHz bandwidth enables reliable 10G performance
  • LSZH jacket reduces toxic smoke in fire events
  • 100 W PoE++ delivers power to demanding devices
  • Snagless RJ-45 connectors with strain relief protect ports

Questions about this item

Does the LSZH jacket or 500 MHz shielding add heat when the cable carries 100 W PoE++ all day?

The cable is rated for 100 W PoE++ and operates in 0 % to 85 % RH; no active cooling is required and the LSZH jacket does not generate extra heat.

What devices must I already have to use the RJ-45 connectors on this patch cord?

You need two pieces of equipment with standard RJ-45 ports — such as a switch, router, server or workstation — that support Cat6a or higher speeds.

Will this 1 ft aqua Cat6a cable work reliably with older Cat5e or Cat6 ports I still use?

Yes, the RJ-45 connectors are backward compatible; the link will negotiate at the highest speed both ends support, up to 10 GbE.
