## Summary description

The StarTech.com 5m CAT6a Ethernet Cable features a black design, supports 10GbE data transfer rates up to 500MHz, and is ideal for high-speed networking. It is equipped with snagless RJ-45 connectors and strain reliefs, ensuring durability and reliability. This low smoke zero halogen cable is perfect for environments where safety is a priority.

## Long description

StarTech.com 5m CAT6a Ethernet Cable in black delivers Multi-Gigabit and 10GbE performance with shielding and Low-Smoke Zero-Halogen (LSZH) jacket for safer installations. The 500 MHz-rated cable supports 1/2.5/5/10 Gbps network speeds, offers protection against electromagnetic interference, and is compatible with IEEE 802.3bt-2018 for up to 100W Power over Ethernet (PoE++). Snagless RJ-45 connectors with integrated strain reliefs reduce wear at termination points and simplify routing during installation.
Advantages
The shielded Cat6a construction provides reliable noise and EMI/RFI protection for high-speed and multi-gigabit networks. The LSZH jacket emits low smoke and minimal corrosive gases in case of fire, improving visibility and safety for building occupants and first responders. Snagless molded RJ-45 boots protect the connector latch and include strain relief to prevent sharp bends and reduce mechanical stress. The cable supports IEEE 802.3bt-2018 PoE++ delivering up to 100W for Type 4 devices and is backed by lifetime support.
Suitable for
High-speed LAN backbones and multi-gigabit desktop connections
PoE++ deployments such as high-power access points, PTZ cameras, and other Type 4 devices
Installation in public or commercial buildings where low-smoke, low-toxicity materials are required
Environments needing shielded cabling to reduce EMI/RFI interference

How to use
Route the cable between network devices, ensuring the snagless RJ-45 connector is aligned with the port before insertion. Use the integrated strain relief to avoid sharp bends near connector ends; secure the cable along trays or conduits as needed. When deploying PoE devices, confirm both the power sourcing equipment and the powered device support IEEE 802.3bt to utilize full 100W delivery.
Usage recommendations
For optimal performance, keep the cable separated from large power sources and minimize tight bends. Use shielded terminations and properly grounded equipment when installing in environments with significant EMI/RFI. Follow local fire and building codes when selecting LSZH cabling for public or commercial installations.
