StarTech.com N6PAT10MBLS Cat6 Ethernet Cable, UTP, 10 m, Blue Low Smoke Zero Halogen

StarTech Ethernet Cable, 10m Cable Length, Blue Jacket - N6PAT10MBLS

This Ethernet cable provides a reliable network connection for industrial and technical environments where reduced-emission materials are required. It is a Cat6 UTP patch lead designed for data transmission in systems that demand a balance of flexibility and compliance with low-smoke, low-toxicity requirements. The cable is supplied in blue and intended for installations where a stranded conductor and moderate flexibility are preferred.

Features and Benefits:

• Stranded copper conductors enable flexible routing in confined spaces
  28 AWG conductor size supports tidy cable management and bend tolerance
  Low Smoke Zero Halogen jacket minimises toxic emissions in fire
  Unshielded twisted pair construction reduces handling stiffness
  RoHS conformity limits hazardous substances for safer disposal

Applications

• Suitable for machine control panel interconnects in factories
  Ideal for linking programmable controllers and I/O racks
  Used with test rigs and benchtop instrumentation requiring movable leads
  Can be used for temporary network setups during site commissioning
  Suitable for cable runs where fire-safety materials are mandated

What conductor material is used and why is it chosen?

The cable uses copper conductors to ensure consistent electrical conductivity and signal integrity for Cat6 performance.

How does the cable jacket perform under fire-related concerns?

The jacket is Low Smoke Zero Halogen, which reduces smoke density and the release of halogen gases when exposed to heat.

What environmental temperature range can it operate within?

It is rated to function in environments from 10°C up to 60°C for normal operation.

What physical thickness should I expect when planning cable pathways?

The cable has an outside diameter of 3.6 mm, allowing planning for conduit and tray fill accordingly.
