## Long description

StarTech.com 2m CAT6a Ethernet Cable in aqua colour, designed for high-speed wired networks. This LSZH (Low-Smoke Zero-Halogen) shielded Cat6a cable supports multi-gigabit connections including 1/2.5/5/10Gbps and operates at up to 500 MHz. It provides protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI/RFI) and is suitable for environments that require reduced smoke and corrosive gas emissions in case of fire. The cable includes snagless RJ-45 connectors with integrated strain reliefs and supports IEEE 802.3bt-2018 Power over Ethernet (PoE++) delivering up to 100 W to compatible devices.
Advantages
The LSZH jacket reduces toxic and corrosive fumes compared with PVC, improving visibility and safety during evacuations. Shielding offers robust protection against EMI/RFI and network noise for reliable multi-gigabit performance. Snagless molded RJ-45 boots protect the connector tab and include strain reliefs to prevent sharp bends at terminations. The cable supports the IEEE 802.3bt-2018 standard for 100 W PoE++ to power Type 4 PoE devices. Backed by StarTech.com lifetime coverage and 24/5 multilingual technical assistance.
Suitable for
Data centers and server rooms requiring 10GbE and multi‑gigabit links
PoE++ deployments powering high-power devices (up to 100 W)
Commercial buildings and public spaces where low-smoke, low-halogen materials are required
Environments with potential EMI/RFI where shielded cabling is preferred
Patch panels, switches, routers and workstation connections

How to use
Route the cable between network devices such as switches, routers, patch panels or endpoints and insert each RJ-45 connector into the corresponding Ethernet ports until the tab clicks. Avoid sharp bends and maintain gentle bend radii at termination points; the molded strain relief reduces stress but proper cable routing practices prolong service life. For PoE deployments, ensure connected equipment and switches support IEEE 802.3bt to deliver up to 100 W.
Usage recommendations
For optimum performance, use the cable in shielded or properly grounded installations to maximise EMI/RFI protection, and avoid running the cable in parallel with high-voltage power lines. Inspect connector boots before installation to confirm tabs are protected, and follow local building codes when installing LSZH-rated cabling in public or commercial spaces.
