Tripp Lite N262-S03-WH network ethernet cable 3 ft

3 ft Cat6a cable for 10 GbE links

This three-foot Cat6a patch cable is built for 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections in dense racks or small offices. Shielded twisted-pair construction and snagless RJ45 plugs protect signal integrity when runs are bundled tightly. It suits servers, switches, routers and PoE endpoints that need a short, reliable link. The slim profile eases routing in crowded panels.

Sustained 10 GbE throughput with PoE support

Shielding and Cat6a-rated conductors maintain 10 GbE speeds over the full length without the drop-off seen on lighter cables during long transfers. Power over Ethernet is carried on the same conductors, so cameras, VoIP phones or access points draw power without a separate adapter. The design keeps performance steady in high-density installations where heat and crosstalk can degrade lesser cables.

Verify connector spacing

The 3 ft length leaves little slack, so measure the exact port-to-port distance in your rack or wall box first. Confirm the receiving device accepts the PoE class your switch delivers; the cable passes whatever class is negotiated. Ensure both ends use standard RJ45 ports — no proprietary keying or recessed jacks that could block the snagless boot.
