Cat6A UTP patch cable for 10 GbE links

This 7-foot Cat6A UTP patch cable uses 24 AWG stranded pure copper conductors and RJ45 plugs with 50 micron gold-plated contacts. The CM-rated PVC jacket meets TIA/EIA requirements verified by UL and ETL, and the wiring follows the T568B standard. It is built for 10 Gigabit Ethernet runs up to 100 meters at a minimum 500 MHz frequency. The purple colour helps identify the link in a busy rack or desk setup.

Step up from Cat5e or Cat6 when 10 GbE is needed

Cat6A cable supports 10,000Base-T speeds that Cat5e and standard Cat6 cannot sustain over full 100-meter distances. The 550 MHz rating and improved crosstalk suppression keep the signal clean at higher bandwidth, while better heat dissipation helps PoE equipment run cooler. The upgrade is worth it when you are deploying new 10 GbE switches, servers or NAS gear that demand the extra headroom.

Check port type, required length and pathway rating

Verify that both ends of the link use RJ45 ports and that 7 feet reaches between them without tension. Confirm the CM jacket rating satisfies the fire code for the intended pathway, whether it is a desktop run, under-floor tray or in-wall installation. Ensure the existing infrastructure is also Cat6A or better so the channel meets the 500 MHz specification end to end.

Questions about this item

Does the 7 ft length reach between a wall jack and a desk switch without strain?

The cable measures 7 ft end to end, so measure your actual run; allow extra slack for routing around corners or through cable management.

How do I seat the RJ45 plugs on the 24 AWG stranded copper conductors without damaging the gold contacts?

Push each RJ45 plug straight in until the latch clicks; the booted strain relief protects the 24 AWG stranded wires, so avoid rocking the connector sideways.

Will the CM type PVC jacket need replacement if run through a warm PoE pathway?

The CM rated PVC jacket handles typical indoor temperatures; inspect periodically for discoloration or stiffness if the cable carries continuous PoE load.
