1. Cable Type: Ethernet (SL Ethernet Cable)

The Starlink system uses an Ethernet connection to link the satellite dish (the Dishy terminal) to the Wi-Fi router. The standard Ethernet cable used in Starlink systems is Cat 5e or Cat 6, capable of supporting high-speed internet traffic up to gigabit speeds. For a 150ft/46m cable length, a Cat 6 cable is recommended to ensure you get the most reliable and fast performance from your connection. Cat 6 cables support higher bandwidths (up to 10Gbps over shorter distances) and are better suited for longer lengths.

2. Length Considerations (150ft/46m)

A 150ft (46 meters) Starlink gen 3 Cable is quite long and can introduce signal degradation due to the distance. As a result, a high-quality cable with shielding is important to prevent loss of signal over the extended length. Look for cables that are shielded (FTP/STP), meaning they have an extra layer of insulation to protect the signal from interference. This is especially useful if you’re running the cable outdoors where environmental factors like electromagnetic interference (EMI) could disrupt the signal.

3. Weatherproof and Durability

Since the Starlink gen 3 Cable will likely be routed outside, it needs to be weather-resistant. Starlink’s satellite dishes are typically installed on rooftops or outside walls, so the cable must withstand outdoor conditions. Look for cables with UV protection to prevent the cable from degrading due to exposure to sunlight. Additionally, the cable should have waterproofing or water-resistant jackets to prevent rain or moisture from affecting the performance. Heavy-duty jackets made of PVC or thermoplastic materials are commonly used for this purpose.

4. Ethernet Port and Actuated Design

Starlink systems use a standard RJ45 Ethernet port, and your replacement cable should have RJ45 connectors on both ends. In addition, the cable might feature an actuated design. This refers to the cable’s ability to function smoothly under flexible conditions, which is essential for easier installation, especially over a long distance. The actuated design also ensures the cable remains flexible during installation and doesn’t stiffen over time.

5. Speed and Performance

The Starlink gen 3 Cable must support high-speed data transfer. Starlink offers speeds up to 150 Mbps or higher, depending on location, so it’s essential that the replacement cable can handle this traffic without introducing latency or data loss. A Cat 6 cable is perfect for this, ensuring that you receive the maximum bandwidth your Starlink system can provide.

6. Installation and Routing

A 150ft Starlink gen 3 Cable offers a lot of flexibility for installation, but you’ll need to plan how you’ll route it. The cable should be easy to cut and install with minimal tools, and you should avoid sharp bends during installation. Using cable clips or mounting accessories can help secure the cable along walls or rooftops for a cleaner, safer setup.
