Cat6a shielded patch cable

This Snagless Shielded Cat6a patch cable is built for 10GBase-T equipment such as network adapters, switches, routers and patch panels. The shielded construction protects the high speed 10 Gigabit connection from noise and electromagnetic interference. Each cable is fully tested to meet ANSI/TIA 568 C.2 Cat6a component requirements. Bonded pairs maintain twist-spacing right up to the termination point.

Practical limits of 10GBase-T copper

The Cat6a standard supports 10 Gigabit speeds over copper up to the full channel distance defined by ANSI/TIA 568 C.2. Shielding reduces alien crosstalk and electromagnetic interference that would otherwise degrade the signal at higher frequencies. Performance depends on the quality of the connected ports and the overall channel length. This 2 ft patch cord is intended for short links within a rack or between nearby devices.

Capacity and headroom for bandwidth-intensive use

The cable handles voice, data and video distribution for bandwidth-intensive applications while drastically reducing impedance and structural return loss. Minimised Near-End Crosstalk levels preserve headroom for 10G throughput on short runs. It will not compensate for longer channels that exceed the standard's distance limit or for unshielded equipment that introduces external noise. Buyers needing longer permanent links should use solid-core horizontal cable rated for the full distance.

Questions about this item

Which length should I choose for a short patch run?

The 2 ft (0.60 m) length suits rack-to-panel links or desk-side connections where slack must stay minimal.

What does the Cat6a rating deliver on a 10GBase-T link?

It supports the full 10 Gigabit throughput with bonded pairs and individual foil shielding that suppress crosstalk and EMI right up to the plug.

How does the ANSI/TIA 568 C.2 Cat6a compliance affect real-world use?

Factory testing to that component standard guarantees the cable meets the electrical margins required for reliable 10 Gb/s operation over the stated distance.
