Cat6a 10 Gbps shielded patch cable

This Cat6a STP cable carries 10 Gbps Ethernet over a 12 ft shielded run. Snagless RJ45 plugs and PoE support let you link 10GBase-T gear without separate power injectors. The 500 MHz bandwidth and foil shielding suppress EMI and RFI that can corrupt data.

Installers needing certified 10G copper links

Suits network builds that require a factory-tested Cat6a cable with full shielding and PoE capability. Not for installers who need longer runs beyond the supplied length or who prefer unshielded UTP cable for easier routing in tight conduits.

12 ft length constraint

The fixed 12 ft (3.66 m) length decides fit — measure the exact switch-to-device distance before ordering. If the path is shorter or longer, a different cable length is required.

Questions about this item

Does the 12 ft cable arrive ready to plug in or do I need to buy RJ45 connectors separately?

The cable has RJ45 male connectors on both ends and is ready to use without extra parts.

Should I choose this Cat6a shielded 12 ft version or a different length for a 10 Gbps link?

This 12 ft Cat6a STP patch cord is rated for 10 Gbps at 500 MHz and suits typical rack or desk runs.

What does the 10 Gbps rating mean when the cable is connected to a 10GBase-T switch?

It supports 10 Gbps data, voice and video over 10GBase-T equipment while the shielding rejects EMI/RFI noise.
