## Summary description

The StarTech.com 3m CAT6a Ethernet Cable features a low smoke zero halogen design, supports 10GbE data transfer rates up to 500MHz, and is ideal for high-performance networking applications. It is snagless with strain reliefs and offers PoE++ capabilities for powering devices over the network.

## Long description

StarTech.com 3m CAT6a Ethernet Cable in aqua color, designed for high-performance wired networks. This LSZH (Low-Smoke Zero-Halogen) shielded Cat6a cable supports Multi-Gigabit and 10GbE connections up to 500 MHz and provides PoE++ power delivery up to 100W. The cable includes snagless RJ-45 connectors with integrated strain reliefs for reliable terminations and easier installation.
Advantages
The LSZH jacket reduces harmful smoke and corrosive gases in case of fire, improving safety in enclosed spaces. Shielding offers protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI/RFI) and noise for stable high-speed data transmission. The cable supports IEEE 802.3bt PoE++ (100W) to power Type 4 devices over the network, and snagless molded RJ-45 boots prevent latch damage and reduce snags during routing. It comes in a 3 m length and an aqua color for easy identification.
Suitable for
High-performance LANs requiring up to 10GbE throughput
Environments where low-smoke, zero-halogen cabling is required (data centers, public buildings)
PoE++ powered devices such as access points, PTZ cameras, and small network appliances
Office or rack installations where EMI/RFI shielding improves signal reliability

How to use
Route the cable between network devices and terminate by inserting the RJ-45 connectors into the appropriate ports until the latch clicks. Use the integrated strain relief at each connector to avoid sharp bend angles near terminations. For best performance, avoid running the cable parallel and close to power lines or large electrical equipment; maintain proper bend radius as recommended for Cat6a cabling during installation.
Usage recommendations
For installations in public or enclosed spaces, choose LSZH cabling to minimize smoke and corrosive gas emissions during a fire. Verify PoE budget and device compatibility before connecting high-power PoE++ devices, and use shielded connectors and grounded infrastructure where required to maximize EMI protection.
