8 ft Cat6a aqua patch cable

This eight-foot Category 6a patch cable uses stranded 26 AWG copper conductors and aluminium-polyester foil shielding to deliver 10 Gigabit Ethernet performance. The aqua jacket makes the link easy to identify in dense racks or under desks.

CMG-rated PVC jacket with snagless RJ45 plugs

The general-purpose CMG fire rating suits typical office and home runs, while the snagless boots protect the locking tabs during frequent moves. Shielded construction suppresses EMI and RFI so the 10 Gbit/s signal stays clean near power cables.

100 W PoE support on UL-verified conductors

UL-listed 100 % copper wires (E132276-A) carry up to 100 watts of Power over Ethernet, letting you feed access points or cameras without a separate supply. The cable is tested to ANSI/TIA-568-D Category 6 requirements for reliable certification.
