Armored CAT6A cable for harsh environments

This 100 ft CAT6A Ethernet cable uses a stainless-steel armored jacket to protect the 24 AWG stranded copper conductors from rodents, moisture and corrosion. The UTP design meets TIA/EIA standards with UL and ETL verification and is RoHS compliant. RJ45 plugs with 50-micron gold contacts follow the T568B wiring scheme. The IP65 and UV rated SUS304+PVC jacket suits outdoor and industrial runs.

Suited for industrial and outdoor PoE runs

Installers who need a single 100 ft drop that survives factory floors, direct burial or exposed exterior routes will benefit from the armor and IP65 rating. Buyers who want more storage, builders who need a second card or anyone requiring shielded twisted pair for high-EMI environments should look at a different cable type. The unshielded construction limits noise immunity in heavy electrical fields.

Flexible armor eases tight-space routing

The SUS304 jacket bends around cable trays and conduit without kinking, so pulls through limited-access areas stay straightforward. What usually goes wrong is exceeding the minimum bend radius during installation, which can deform the armor and stress the conductors. Ensure connectors are fully seated to maintain the IP65 seal at each end.

Questions about this item

What type of RJ45 port must my switch or router have for this cable to plug in?

The cable terminates in standard RJ45 plugs with 50-micron gold-plated contacts, so any standard RJ45 jack on a switch, router or patch panel will accept it.

Will the stainless-steel armor interfere with PoE power delivery on my existing PoE switch?

No. The cable is specified for PoE installations and uses 4-pair 24 AWG stranded bare copper conductors that carry both data and power without interference from the SUS304 armor.

How can I verify the link is running at Cat 6A speeds after I install the cable?

Check the link status LEDs on both connected devices; they should indicate a 10 Gigabit or 10G connection, confirming the cable is performing to its Cat 6A rating.
