3 ft Shielded Cat6a Patch Cable

This three-foot shielded Cat6a patch cable uses 26 AWG stranded copper conductors and snagless RJ-45 connectors to deliver 10 Gigabit Ethernet links. The foil shielding and moulded strain relief protect signals from EMI and RFI noise in dense equipment racks or office runs.

Shielding and PoE support

The STP construction blocks external interference so 10Gb throughput remains stable, while the UL-rated wiring carries up to 100W of Power over Ethernet for cameras, access points or VoIP phones. Snagless clips prevent latch damage during frequent reconnection.

Length and installation limits

At three feet the cable suits short patch-panel to switch links or desktop connections but cannot span longer rack-to-rack or cross-room distances. Installers needing extended runs must choose a longer Cat6a assembly.

Questions about this item

Will the snagless clips or RJ-45 connectors need replacement after repeated plugging?

The molded RJ-45 connectors include strain relief and snagless clips designed to protect the connectors during installation and repeated use.

What limits the cable's 10 Gigabit performance over longer runs?

This cable is tested to ANSI/TIA-568-D Category 6A requirements for 10Gb Ethernet; the 3 ft length keeps insertion loss well within the standard.

Does the foil shielding generate extra heat when carrying 100W PoE continuously?

The 26 AWG stranded copper conductors are UL rated for 100W PoE, and the shield is grounded through the connectors without adding thermal load.
