25 ft Cat6A UTP Ethernet Cable

This 25-foot Cat6A unshielded twisted-pair cable uses 24 AWG stranded pure copper conductors and RJ45 plugs with 50 micron gold-plated contacts. It is rated for 10 Gigabit Ethernet up to 100 meters and operates at a minimum frequency of 500 MHz. The gray CM-rated PVC jacket meets TIA/EIA standards verified by UL and ETL and is RoHS compliant. Wiring follows the T568B standard.

Check Port Compatibility and Run Length

Verify that both endpoints have RJ45 ports capable of the desired speed, such as 10Base-T, 100Base-T, 1000Base-T or 10,000Base-T. Ensure the total channel length including patch cords stays within the 100 meter limit for Cat6A performance. Confirm the UTP design suits your environment, as shielded cable may be preferred where electromagnetic interference is high.

Upgrade from Cat5e or Cat6 Links

Replacing Cat5e or standard Cat6 patch cords with this Cat6A cable enables 10 Gigabit Ethernet over copper at 550 MHz bandwidth with improved crosstalk suppression. The jump is worth it when moving to 10GbE switches, servers or NAS devices that require the higher frequency rating. It also provides better heat dissipation for Power over Ethernet applications compared to lower-category cables.

Questions about this item

Does the 25 ft Cat6A cable come with RJ45 connectors already attached or do I need to buy plugs separately?

The cable ships with RJ45 male connectors on both ends, 50 micron gold-plated contacts and booted strain relief, so no additional plugs are required.

Should I choose this 25 ft Cat6A UTP cable or a shorter Cat6A length for a 10 Gigabit Ethernet run?

At 25 ft you are well within the 100 meter (328 ft) Cat6A limit for 10 Gigabit Ethernet, so this length works without signal degradation.

What does the 550 MHz rating mean for actual throughput when the cable is installed in a 10 Gigabit network?

The 550 MHz bandwidth supports the 10,000Base-T standard, enabling full 10 Gigabit speeds over the entire 25 ft run with crosstalk suppression.
