  • Supports 10 GbE speeds for high-bandwidth networks

  • LSZH jacket emits minimal smoke in fire
  • 100 W PoE capability powers devices over cable
  • S/FTP shielding reduces crosstalk and interference

StarTech 25 ft CAT6a cable

This 25 ft StarTech CAT6a patch cord is built for installers and network teams who need a low-smoke zero-halogen jacket that meets building-code requirements. The S/FTP shielding and snagless RJ-45 plugs support 10 GbE links and 100 W PoE delivery in offices, data rooms or campus runs where cable length is fixed at 25 ft.

Thermals noise and power

The cable is a passive copper assembly so it generates no heat and produces no audible noise during operation. Power draw is limited to the PoE current negotiated by the connected endpoints, with the conductors rated to carry up to 100 W safely along the full 25 ft length.

LSZH jacket and snagless plugs

The low-smoke zero-halogen jacket reduces toxic emissions in a fire, making the cord suitable for plenum-adjacent pathways where standard PVC is restricted. Snagless boots protect the latch tabs during pulls through conduit or cable trays, and the S/FTP foil-and-braid shield maintains signal integrity without any software or driver installation.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 25ft CAT6a patch cord and which step is often missed?

Route the cable, then press each RJ-45 plug firmly until the latch clicks; the step people miss is verifying both latches are fully seated before assuming the link is live.

What maintenance or replacement will the LSZH jacket and S/FTP shielding need later?

Inspect the jacket for cuts or kinks after any re-routing; replace the cord if the shielding is crushed or the snagless boots tear, otherwise no periodic maintenance is required.

What limit appears first on a 10 GbE link carrying 100W PoE over this 25ft run?

The 100 W PoE ceiling is reached before any signal degradation, so power delivery caps the usable load on this length.
