FAQs

What are the key features of the Black Box CAT6A Patch Cable?
The Black Box CAT6A Patch Cable features 650-MHz testing capability, 10-Gbps performance, and EMI/RFI interference protection. It includes 50-micron gold-plated contacts, a lockable design with patented snagless boot, and supports PoE (Power over Ethernet). The cable is shielded, features a rugged hard-polymer LockPORT boot, and has connectors rated for 750 insertion/extraction cycles. It's also equipped with a unique locking mechanism that can be secured using red or green locking pins for different security levels.
What is the maximum data transfer rate of this cable?
This CAT6A cable supports a maximum data transfer rate of 10 Gigabits per second (10 Gbit/s). It's tested to 650-MHz performance, making it ideal for bandwidth-intensive 10G networking applications, including voice, data, audio/video, and PoE signal transmission.
How does the locking mechanism work on this cable?
The cable features a patented LockPORT boot system with two locking options: Red Pin for mission-critical security (requires removal tool) and Green Pin for accident prevention.
