Enhanced Safety
The Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) jacket minimizes toxic fumes if combusted, making this cable suitable for poorly ventilated or enclosed spaces such as data centers, riser applications, and plenum areas.
Superior Shielding
S/FTP shielding with aluminum mylar foil and tinned copper braid provides excellent protection against electromagnetic interference, ensuring stable performance in electrically noisy environments.
High-Power PoE Support
Supports PoE++ (IEEE 802.3bt Type 4) for devices requiring up to 100W, including advanced IP cameras, wireless access points, and other powered network equipment without separate power cables.
Deployment / Use Cases
This cable is ideal for 10GBASE-T network deployments where both high-speed data transfer and power delivery are required. Its 50-foot length provides flexibility in connecting equipment across server racks, office spaces, or industrial settings.
Common applications include connecting network switches to PoE++ devices such as IP cameras, wireless access points, and VoIP phones. It's also suitable for connecting NAS devices, network modules, and other infrastructure components in data centers or enterprise networks.
Data Center Patching
Use for server-to-switch connections in data centers where 10 Gbps throughput and reliable power delivery are essential for high-density equipment.
Security & Surveillance
Power and connect IP cameras simultaneously with PoE++ support, simplifying installation and reducing cable clutter in security system deployments.
Physical Profile
The cable features a bright orange LSZH jacket that makes it easy to identify in cable management systems. With a diameter of 5.7mm, it remains flexible for routing through tight spaces while maintaining its structural integrity. The approximate weight of 1.20 lb (544.31 g) makes it manageable for installation over its 50-foot length.

User Manual
FAQ
What is the maximum data transfer speed this cable supports?
This CAT6a cable supports data transfer rates up to 10 Gbit/s (10GBASE-T) with a frequency range up to 500 MHz. It's designed for high-speed network deployments and maintains reliable performance across its entire 50-foot length when used in compatible 10GbE network environments.
Does this cable support Power over Ethernet (PoE)?
Yes, this cable supports PoE++ (IEEE 802.3bt Type 4) for devices requiring up to 100W of power. It can deliver both data and power simultaneously to compatible devices such as IP cameras, wireless access points, and other PoE++ equipment, eliminating the need for separate power cables.
What does S/FTP shielding mean and why is it important?
S/FTP stands for Shielded with Foiled Twisted Pair, which means each twisted pair is individually foil-shielded, and the overall cable has an additional braided shield. This construction provides excellent protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI), ensuring stable signal transmission in electrically noisy environments like data centers or industrial settings.
What are the advantages of the LSZH jacket?
The Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) jacket minimizes toxic fumes and smoke if the cable is exposed to fire. This makes it safer for use in enclosed or poorly ventilated spaces such as data centers, riser applications, and plenum areas where traditional PVC jackets might pose greater safety risks.
What devices is this cable compatible with?
This cable is compatible with network devices, switches, modules, PoE devices, PoE switches, access points, IP cameras, and NAS systems. It supports backward compatibility with CAT6, CAT5e, and CAT5 networks while providing optimal performance in CAT6a/10GBASE-T deployments.
Is this cable individually tested for performance?
Yes, each cable is individually tested and ETL verified to ensure it meets ANSI/TIA-568.2-D standards for CAT6a performance. This testing guarantees specifications such as low Near-End Crosstalk (NEXT), proper shielding effectiveness, and reliable 10 Gbps data transmission across the entire cable length.
