3-foot Cat 6A patch cable for 10 Gigabit links

This 3 ft gray Cat 6A UTP patch cable connects network devices with RJ45 plugs on both ends. It is built for 10 Gigabit Ethernet over copper and rated for a minimum frequency of 500 MHz. The short length suits rack patches, desk runs or any tight connection where slack is unwanted.

500 MHz bandwidth enables 10GBASE-T

The cable meets the Cat 6A requirement of 500 MHz minimum frequency, which is the single specification that decides whether a 10 Gigabit link will run at full speed. Lower-category cables cannot guarantee that bandwidth over the same distance.

Boots and T568B wiring simplify termination

Molded boots protect the RJ45 latches during repeated insertion and removal. The cable follows the T568B wiring standard, so it matches the vast majority of existing patch panels and wall jacks. Stranded 24 AWG conductors stay flexible for routing but can be damaged by sharp bends or repeated tight coiling.

Questions about this item

What does the 10 Gigabit Ethernet rating mean when this cable is installed in a real network?

It supports 10,000Base-T speeds up to 100 meters, so a 3-foot patch cord will deliver full 10 Gbps throughput between switch and device without bottleneck.

How does the 500 MHz frequency rating and TIA/EIA certification cap real-world performance?

The 500 MHz minimum bandwidth and UL/ETL verified TIA/EIA compliance guarantee the cable handles 10 Gigabit Ethernet signalling with controlled crosstalk and insertion loss at the rated distance.

Will the 24 AWG stranded conductors and booted RJ45 plugs fit standard keystone jacks and switch ports?

Yes, 24 AWG stranded wire terminates to standard 8P8C RJ45 dimensions, and the moulded boots slide into any Cat 6A-compatible keystone or switch port without clearance issues.
