Category 6A RJ45 Patch Cord, 5 ft

This Cat 6A patch cord carries RJ45 connectors on both ends, each fitted with a clear boot. The round PVC jacket is blue and measures 0.2 in diameter over 24 AWG conductors. It is rated for 10 Gbps transmission and meets ANSI/TIA/EIA-568-C.2 and ISO 11801/60603-7-41 requirements. The cord is new and RoHS compliant.

Suited for 10 Gbps copper links in commercial racks

Network installers terminating Cat 6A horizontal runs will find the shielded performance and CM fire rating match typical data-centre patching. The clear boots allow quick visual verification of latch engagement. Buyers who need plenum-rated cable, outdoor UV resistance or lengths beyond 5 ft should look at other listings.

Unshielded construction with CM fire rating

The cable carries no overall shield, relying on the Cat 6A balanced-pair design for alien-crosstalk control. Its CM rating limits use to general-purpose commercial spaces and prohibits plenum or riser pathways without additional approval. This single rating determines whether the cord complies with a project's fire-code requirements.

Questions about this item

What does 10 Gbps mean when this cord is plugged into a live network?

It means the cord meets the Category 6A performance class and can carry 10 Gbps Ethernet signals when the rest of the channel also meets Category 6A requirements.

Which connector standard does the RJ45 interface follow and what does that limit?

The RJ45 plugs follow ISO/IEC 60603-7-41, so they mate with any standard Category 6A jack but will not exceed the 10 Gbps rating of the Category 6A channel.

What physical space is needed for the clear-boot RJ45 plugs and 0.2 in cable?

Each end has a clear boot over an RJ45 plug and the round PVC jacket is 0.2 in diameter, so allow enough clearance for the boot depth and a bend radius suited to a 0.2 in cable.
