StarTech.com Cat6 Ethernet Cable 4 Core, Black, 3 m, Unshielded Unscreened, Snagless, Low Smoke Zero Halogen

StarTech Ethernet Cable, 3M Cable Length, Black Jacket - N6PAT300CMBKS

This Ethernet cable is a 3M Cat6 patch lead designed for high-density network installations where Compact routing and safe environments are required. It provides Gigabit-capable connectivity using 4-pair unshielded twisted pair construction with stranded copper conductors and LSZH outer sheathing, suitable for on-premises and confined-space deployments that demand reduced toxic emissions in the event of fire.

Features and Benefits:

• Supports 10Gbps data rates for high-throughput networks
  28AWG stranded conductors deliver lower resistance and flexibility
  LSZH jacket limits smoke and toxic fumes for confined spaces
  Snagless RJ45 connectors prevent clip damage during routing
  50μm gold contacts reduce signal loss and contact wear

Applications

• Suitable for dense data centre patch panels and racks
  Ideal for Gigabit and PoE++ enabled access switches
  Used with IP and boardroom cameras requiring 100W PoE
  Can be used for edge networking in trains and aircraft
  Used for residential installations requiring LSZH compliance

What conductor material and type are used in the cable?

The cable uses stranded Pure bare copper conductors in 28AWG format.

How is fire behaviour addressed in this cable's design?

The jacket is Low Smoke Zero Halogen, which emits reduced smoke and lower-toxicity fumes when exposed to fire.

What testing standards verify the cable's performance?

Each cable is individually tested with a Fluke DSX2-8000 CableAnalyser to meet ANSI/TIA-568.2-D Category6 specifications.

What PoE capability does the cable support?

It supports up to 100W power delivery and complies with IEEE 802.3bt Type4 PoE++ specifications.
