5 ft Cat6a UTP cable for 10GBase-T

This 5 ft Cat6a unshielded patch cable connects network adapters, switches, routers, modems and patch panels with RJ-45 male plugs on both ends. The red jacket allows quick colour-coding in dense racks. It is built for 10 Gigabit Ethernet over four-pair copper and tested to ANSI/TIA 568 C.2 channel requirements.

Sustained 10 Gbps over full channel length

Each cable is fully tested to meet the Cat6a channel specification, so 10 Gbps throughput is maintained across the entire 100 m maximum link distance. Improved alien cross-talk performance keeps signal integrity stable under continuous high-throughput loads rather than only in short bursts.

Replaces Cat6 runs limited to shorter 10 Gbps

Existing Cat6 cabling often restricts 10 Gigabit Ethernet to reduced distances. This Cat6a cable removes that constraint for any link up to 100 m. The snagless hood eases insertion and removal in high-density switch ports, making the upgrade practical for installers who need reliable full-distance 10 Gbps without shielded cable bulk.

Questions about this item

Does the 5 ft Cat6a cable generate any heat or noise when running 10 Gigabit traffic continuously?

No. A passive copper patch cable has no active components, so it produces zero heat and no audible noise regardless of data rate or duty cycle.

What equipment must I already have to use this RJ-45 male-to-male patch cable?

You need two devices with 10GBase-T RJ-45 ports — such as a network adapter, switch, router, DSL or cable modem, or patch panel — that accept an unshielded Cat6a plug.

Will this Cat6a cable work reliably with older Cat5e or Cat6 ports and cabling already in my rack?

Yes. The RJ-45 connectors are fully backward compatible, so the cable will negotiate the highest speed both ends support, up to 10 Gigabit over 100 metres on Cat6a links.
