StarTech.com 15m CAT6 UTP 100W PoE Cable

Struggling with cramped racks and overheating cables? The StarTech.com 15m CAT6 UTP 100W PoE Cable lets you run high-speed data and power through a slim, flexible line, keeping airflow clear and installations tidy. It delivers reliable Gigabit speeds and up to 100 W of power, perfect for powering cameras, access points and other PoE devices without bulky wiring.

Key Features of a 100W PoE cable

• Cable length: 15 m. Gives you ample reach for large rooms or equipment bays.
• Cable type: UTP. Unshielded design reduces weight while maintaining performance.
• Category: CAT 5/5e/6. Meets Cat6 standards for up to 1 Gbps data rates.
• Connector gender: Male (both ends). Standard RJ-45 plugs for easy plug-and-play.
• Connector type: RJ-45. Widely compatible with networking gear.
• Gold contacts: 50-micron plating. Ensures a solid connection and low signal loss.
• Wire gauge: 28 AWG pure bare copper. Improves conductivity and reduces resistance.
• Jacket material: Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH). Emits minimal fumes if exposed to fire, making it safe for confined spaces.
• Airflow advantage: 36 % thinner than typical Cat6. Allows better cooling in dense racks.
• PoE rating: IEEE 802.3bt Type 4 (100 W). Powers high-demand devices such as PTZ cameras or Wi-Fi 6 access points.

If you manage a busy office, a data centre or a modern home network, you know how quickly cables can become a tangled mess that blocks ventilation. Standard Cat6 cords are often too thick to fit neatly into tight patch panels, leading to forced bends and heat buildup. This StarTech.com PoE cable’s slim profile and snag-less connectors let you route wires cleanly, keep temperatures down and avoid costly downtime caused by overheating or damaged plugs.

Benefits of StarTech.com PoE cable

• Space saving: Thin design frees up rack space for more equipment.
• Better cooling: Improved airflow reduces the risk of overheating.
• Reliable power: 100 W PoE support powers demanding devices without extra adapters.
• Easy installation: Snag-less RJ-45 plugs prevent breakage during routing.
• Longevity: Gold-plated contacts and pure copper conductors minimise wear.

Usages of a 100W PoE cable

The 100W PoE cable is ideal for connecting high-power network devices such as security cameras, wireless access points, VoIP phones and thin-client computers in offices, schools, hospitals, trains or aircraft cabins. Its LSZH jacket makes it safe for use in confined or fire-sensitive environments, while the 15 m length provides flexibility for both permanent installations and temporary setups.
