Nippon Labs 60CAT6A-100GN Cat6A network ethernet cable 100 ft Green

Cat6A 100 ft UTP cable

This 100 ft Cat6A unshielded twisted-pair cable uses 24 AWG stranded pure copper conductors and RJ45 plugs with 50 micron gold-plated contacts. It is wired to the T568B standard and covered by a CM-rated PVC jacket. The construction supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet over copper at frequencies up to 550 MHz. It suits installers and network builders who need a long, standards-compliant patch lead for structured cabling.

Thermals noise and power draw

As a passive copper cable it generates no noise and draws no power of its own. The 24 AWG stranded conductors and unshielded design allow heat from Power over Ethernet loads to dissipate along the 100 ft length without active cooling. No fan, pump or external supply is involved, so acoustic output is zero and thermal load on the rack is negligible.

10 Gigabit Ethernet support

The single specification that decides suitability is the 550 MHz bandwidth rating that enables 10,000Base-T operation up to 100 meters (328 ft). If the installation requires only 1000Base-T or slower speeds, a lower-category cable would also work, so buyers who do not need 10 Gigabit headroom can choose a less expensive option. The cable is certified to TIA/EIA standards by UL and ETL and is RoHS compliant.
