Five yellow CAT6A patch cables with snagless connectors, 7 ft each

NavePoint

NavePoint CAT6A S/FTP 26AWG 7 Ft 5 pack Yellow network ethernet cable

SKU CH-RETZ-52NE4

Pack of five 7 ft yellow CAT6A S/FTP patch cables with 26 AWG stranded copper conductors for 10 Gbps networking

  • Product colorYellow
  • Supports 10 Gbps data rates for fast network performance
  • S/FTP shielding reduces interference and signal loss
  • 26 AWG stranded copper with PVC jacket for durability
  • Snagless strain-relief boots protect connectors during installation
  • Compatible with 10/100/1000 Base-T and PoE devices

Universal 10 Gbps connectivity

This five-pack of NavePoint CAT6A S/FTP patch cables provides shielded twisted-pair links rated for 10 Gbps transmission. The 26 AWG stranded copper conductors and snagless boots suit rack uplinks, Wi-Fi 6 access points and PoE-powered IoT devices such as surveillance cameras. Yellow jackets simplify cable identification in dense patches.

Replaces unshielded CAT5e or CAT6 runs

Upgrade when existing cables limit throughput to 1 Gbps or when alien crosstalk degrades PoE stability in crowded trays. The foil-and-braid shielding raises noise immunity so higher PoE classes negotiate reliably. The jump is worth it for new 10 Gbps backbone segments or wherever 1000 Base-T links already saturate.

Limited by 10 Gbps PHY and 7 ft reach

The CAT6A standard tops out at 10 Gbps over 100 m, so this 7 ft assembly cannot extend a link beyond that ceiling. Shielding adds bulk, making tight bends behind patch panels less forgiving than unshielded equivalents. Buyers needing longer horizontal runs or outdoor-rated jackets must look elsewhere.

Questions about this item

What physical clearance does the 7 ft S/FTP cable need behind a patch panel or switch?

The stranded 26 AWG conductors and PVC jacket make the cable flexible, so it bends easily in tight rack spaces; the moulded strain-relief boots add a small bump at each end that should be allowed for when routing.

Which installation step is most often missed with the snagless boots on these CAT6A cords?

Press the tab fully until it clicks — pushing only the cable body leaves the latch half-engaged and can cause intermittent 10 Gbps links.

When should the yellow 5-pack cables be inspected or replaced in a PoE deployment?

Check the boot latch and jacket for cracks after any re-termination or if the cable has been sharply bent; oxidation-resistant contacts reduce corrosion, but physical damage still degrades PoE power delivery over time.
