STARTECH C6ASPAT9BK Cat6a shielded network ethernet cable 9 ft black

9 ft Cat6a shielded patch cable

This 9 ft black Cat6a cable delivers 10 Gigabit Ethernet links between two RJ45 ports. Shielded twisted-pair construction with aluminum-polyester foil blocks EMI and RFI so the signal stays clean in electrically noisy environments. The PVC jacket meets CMG fire-rating requirements for general-purpose indoor runs. It is built for installers and network owners who need a reliable, pre-terminated link up to 9 feet long.

26 AWG stranded copper conductors

Each conductor uses 26 AWG stranded 100 % copper wire that is UL rated under file E132276-A, giving the flexibility needed for patch-panel and switch-to-device connections. The snagless boots protect the locking tabs during repeated insertions and removals. The assembly is tested to comply with ANSI/TIA-568-D Category 6 requirements, so the cable meets the electrical performance baseline for Cat6a channels. Buyers who need solid-conductor cable for permanent horizontal runs cannot use this stranded patch cord.

Snagless boots and 100 W PoE support

Molded snagless boots prevent the RJ45 tabs from catching on adjacent cables, reducing the chance of broken connectors during moves or maintenance. The four-pair construction carries up to 100 W of Power over Ethernet, allowing the same cord to feed high-power access points, cameras or VoIP phones without a separate power drop. No additional software, drivers or configuration utilities are bundled with the cable.
