  • Overall length1 ft (0.3 m)
  • Cat6a rating supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet speeds
  • Power over Ethernet delivers power to compatible devices
  • Slim profile improves airflow in dense racks
  • Snagless molded connectors protect tabs during changes
  • One-foot length suits tight patch-panel runs

High-density 10 Gigabit Cat6a cable

This Cat6a Ethernet cable is built for 10 Gigabit networks in data centres and wiring closets. It connects servers, switches, routers, printers and security cameras with RJ45 plugs on each end. The one-foot length suits tight patch-panel runs. It also carries Power over Ethernet for compatible devices.

Sustained 10 Gigabit signal quality

The cable is designed for fast transmission and excellent signal quality across the full run. Its slim unshielded construction reduces bulk so airflow stays unrestricted in dense bundles. PoE support means powered devices receive continuous power without separate adapters. Performance remains steady under constant load.

Practical limits of Cat6a and PoE

Category 6a cabling supports 10 Gigabit speeds up to its rated distance, so very long links need intermediate switches. PoE power delivery depends on the switch budget and device class, not the cable alone. The snagless boot protects the RJ45 latch during frequent reconnects. White jacket aids visual identification in crowded racks.

Questions about this item

Does the 1 ft Cat6a cable generate any heat or draw extra power when running 10 Gbps traffic continuously?

No — the passive copper construction carries the signal without active electronics, so it produces no measurable heat and adds no power draw beyond the tiny PoE current the connected devices negotiate.

What equipment must already have RJ-45 ports for this cable to plug straight in?

Any switch, router, server, patch panel, printer, computer, modem, hub, security camera or other network device with a standard RJ-45 jack will accept the male connectors on both ends.

Will this Cat6a patch cord work reliably alongside older Cat5e or Cat6 runs already in the rack?

Yes — it meets the Category 6a specification, so it interoperates with existing Cat5e and Cat6 links; the overall channel simply performs at the lowest category present in each run.
