## Summary description

The StarTech.com 3m CAT6a Ethernet Cable features a blue color, supports 10GbE data transfer rates up to 500MHz, and is designed for PoE++ applications. It has snagless RJ-45 connectors with strain reliefs and S/FTP shielding for enhanced performance.

## Long description

StarTech.com 3m CAT6a Ethernet Cable in blue. This S/FTP-shielded Cat6a cable supports Multi-Gigabit and 10GbE connections up to 500 MHz and is rated for 100W Power over Ethernet (PoE++) according to IEEE 802.3bt-2018. The cable uses snagless RJ-45 connectors with integrated strain reliefs and is made with Low-Smoke Zero-Halogen (LSZH) jacket material to reduce corrosive fumes and smoke in case of fire.
Advantages
The shielded S/FTP construction provides protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI/RFI) and noise for reliable high-speed data transmission. The LSZH jacket minimizes hazardous emissions during combustion, improving visibility and safety during evacuations. Snagless molded RJ-45 boots protect the connector latch and include strain relief to reduce stress at termination points. The cable supports Multi-Gig speeds (1/2.5/5 Gbps) and full 10GbE throughput at up to 500 MHz, and meets IEEE 802.3bt-2018 for up to 100W PoE++ delivery.
Suitable for
10 Gigabit Ethernet links in data centers and network closets
Power over Ethernet devices requiring up to 100W (Type 4 PoE), such as high-power wireless access points, PTZ cameras, and VoIP systems
EMI-sensitive environments where shielded cabling is required
Installations where low-smoke, low-halogen cabling is mandated for safety
Key specifications
Model: NLBL-3M-CAT6A-PATCH

How to use
Route the cable between network devices and terminate into standard RJ-45 ports. Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks; the snagless boot protects the tab during installation. For PoE applications, confirm that both the power sourcing equipment and the powered device support IEEE 802.3bt-2018 Type 4 if you intend to deliver up to 100W. Observe proper cable bend radius and avoid sharp kinks; use the integrated strain relief at termination points to reduce stress.
Usage recommendations
For best performance, use this CAT6a S/FTP cable in shielded installations connected to properly grounded network equipment. Maintain separation from high-voltage power lines and follow local installation codes for LSZH cabling. Check device PoE specifications before deploying high-power devices to ensure compatibility with 100W PoE++.
