Nippon Labs Cat6A 5 ft Orange Cable

This Nippon Labs Cat6A UTP patch cable measures 5 ft and uses RJ45 connectors on both ends. It is built with 24 AWG stranded pure copper conductors and a CM-rated PVC jacket. The cable is designed for 10 Gigabit Ethernet links up to 100 meters and operates at a minimum frequency of 500 MHz.

Suits 10 Gigabit desktop links.

The 5 ft length fits short runs between a PC, server, printer, router or switch in a home or office LAN. Gold-plated contacts and snagless boots help maintain a secure connection. Installers who need shielded cabling for noisy environments or longer permanent installations should look at a different cable type.

Cat6A UTP rating for 10G up to 100 m

The Cat6A unshielded twisted-pair construction supports 10Base-T through 10,000Base-T speeds over the full 100 metre channel. It meets TIA/EIA standards verified by UL and ETL and is RoHS compliant. This specification decides whether the cable matches the required network performance class.

Questions about this item

Will the RJ45 gold-plated contacts need replacement over time?

The 50-micron gold plating resists corrosion and is rated for the cable's lifetime; no routine contact replacement is required.

What bandwidth limit appears first during continuous 10 Gigabit Ethernet traffic?

The 500 MHz minimum frequency ceiling governs sustained 10,000Base-T performance over the full 100-meter channel.

Does the CM-rated PVC jacket run hot when carrying PoE all day?

The stranded 24 AWG pure copper conductors and UTP design provide better heat dissipation for PoE applications.
