Armoured Cat6A cable for harsh environments

This 5 ft Cat6A patch cable uses a stainless-steel armoured jacket to protect the four twisted pairs from rodents, moisture and corrosion. The 24 AWG stranded bare copper conductors are terminated with RJ45 plugs that carry 50-micron gold-plated contacts. It is rated for outdoor use with IP65 water resistance and UV protection. The cable supports Power over Ethernet installations in industrial, commercial and residential settings.

Verify connector spacing

The armoured construction adds bulk around each RJ45 plug, so confirm that your switch, patch panel or device ports have enough clearance for the larger boot. Ensure the 5 ft length reaches between your endpoints without tension, and check that the minimum bend radius of the armoured jacket suits the routing path you plan. The T568B wiring scheme must match the existing cabling standard in your installation.

Fits tight routes while freeing standard duct space

The flexible SUS304 stainless-steel armour lets the cable run through narrow conduits and crowded cable trays where unprotected cables would snag or degrade. Its rodent-proof jacket removes the need for separate protective conduit in vulnerable areas. IP65 and UV ratings allow direct outdoor exposure without additional weatherproofing. RoHS compliance and UL/ETL verification to TIA/EIA standards simplify regulatory approval for the overall installation.

Questions about this item

Does the 5 ft Nippon Labs 60CAT6A-5-24AM come with connectors already fitted, or must I buy RJ45 plugs separately?

The cable is supplied as a finished patch cord with RJ45 plugs on both ends, each using 50-micron gold-plated contacts, so no extra connectors are needed.

When would I choose this 5 ft armoured Cat6A cable over a longer or unarmoured version?

Choose this 5 ft length when the run is short and the stainless-steel SUS304 armour is required for rodent protection, IP65 water resistance and UV resistance in harsh or outdoor environments.

What does the Cat6A rating and T568B wiring mean for actual network speed on this 5 ft cable?

The cable is built to TIA/EIA Cat6A requirements verified by UL and ETL, with 24 AWG stranded copper and T568B pinout, so it will carry the full bandwidth your Cat6A equipment negotiates over this distance.
