100-foot Cat6A STP cable for 10 GbE runs

This 30.48-metre shielded twisted-pair cable uses 26 AWG pure bare copper conductors to support 10 Gigabit Ethernet at 550 MHz bandwidth. It meets UL 444 and TIA-568-C.2 fire and safety standards for in-wall installation. The snagless boot protects the RJ45 retaining clip during repeated connects and disconnects. It is built for installers and network managers who need a ready-made drop rather than field-terminated links.

Shielded construction keeps interference low

The foil shield around each pair reduces alien crosstalk and external EMI in dense cable trays or near power lines. Stranded 26 AWG conductors remain flexible for routing through conduit and around tight bends without kinking. Pure bare copper meets code requirements that copper-clad aluminium cannot satisfy. The black jacket resists UV exposure for indoor and protected outdoor runs.

Sustained 10 GbE throughput over full length

At 100 feet the cable maintains 500 MHz tested bandwidth with margin to the 550 MHz rating, supporting continuous 10 Gbps traffic without the errors seen on shorter-spec cables. Shielding prevents degradation when bundles carry multiple high-speed links side by side. Installers who need longer single pulls or permanent outdoor burial should choose a gel-filled or direct-burial rated alternative.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 26AWG stranded STP Cat6A cable without damaging the RJ45 retaining clip?

The snagless boot covers the clip; push the connector straight into the port until it clicks, then pull gently to confirm it is seated — do not force it at an angle.

What maintenance or replacement will the 26AWG pure bare copper Cat6A cable need over its lifetime?

The stranded conductors and lifetime warranty mean no scheduled replacement; inspect the snagless boots and RJ45 clips periodically and replace the cable only if physical damage appears.

What is the first limit that appears on a 100-foot run at 10 Gbps sustained throughput?

The 550 MHz bandwidth rating supports 10 Gbps up to 100 feet; beyond that distance signal attenuation becomes the limiting factor.
