What this cable is and who it is for

The Intellinet Cat6a S/FTP patch cable is a 5 ft blue Ethernet lead built with 100% copper conductors and gold-plated RJ45 connectors on both ends. It is intended for anyone who needs a short, fully shielded link between two 10GBase-T ports such as a switch, patch panel or network device. The snag-free boots make repeated connections easier in tight spaces.

Who it suits and who should look elsewhere

This cable suits installers and home users who want a 500 MHz rated, 26 AWG stranded lead with overall braid and per-pair foil shielding for noise immunity. It is not for buyers who need a longer run beyond 5 ft, a solid-core cable for permanent in-wall installation, or a different colour for cable management schemes.

How it fits into a build

The RJ45 plugs connect directly to any 10GBase-T compatible port without adapters, and the PVC jacket keeps the cable flexible for rack or desk routing. The S/FTP construction frees the link from alien crosstalk in dense bundles, while the snag-free boots protect the latch during frequent moves. Maximum channel distance for the category is 330 ft, so this 5 ft segment leaves ample headroom for the rest of the run.

Questions about this item

What port speed must my switch or network card support for this Cat6a cable to run at its rated 10 Gbps?

Your switch or network card needs 10GBase-T ports to reach the cable’s 10 Gbps rating.

Will this 26 AWG stranded patch cable work reliably with older Cat5e or Cat6 solid-core runs already in my walls?

Yes, the Cat6a cable is backward compatible and will link at the highest speed both ends support.

How can I confirm the 500 MHz bandwidth is active after I plug the cable in?

Check the link speed in your OS or switch dashboard; it should show 10 Gbps full duplex when both ends are 10GBase-T.
