FAQs

What is the maximum data speed supported by this Cat6a network cable?
This C2G Cat6a network cable supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GBase-T) data transmission speeds, making it ideal for high-speed network connections. The cable is fully tested to meet ANSI/TIA 568 C.2 Cat6a component requirements, ensuring reliable 10Gbps performance over the entire 2-foot length.
What are the key features of this network patch cable?
This cable features a snagless shielded (STP) design with gold and nickel-plated connectors, stranded copper conductors, and molded construction. It includes protective boots to prevent connector tab damage, electromagnetic interference shielding, and is made with a PVC jacket. The cable is blue-colored for easy network identification and comes with individual length labels for convenience.
Is this cable shielded, and why is that important?
Yes, this is a shielded (STP) cable, which provides crucial protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and noise. The shielding is particularly important for maintaining signal integrity in 10 Gigabit networks and environments with high electromagnetic activity. This makes it ideal for data centers, industrial settings, or any installation where EMI could impact network performance.
What types of connectors does this cable use?
The cable features RJ-45 male connectors on both ends with gold and nickel plating for optimal conductivity and durability. Each connector includes a snagless boot design to protect the locking tab from damage during installation and removal. The connectors are molded to provide additional strain relief and ensure consistent performance.
What devices is this cable compatible with?
This Cat6a patch cable is compatible with all network devices using RJ-45 ports, including network adapters, hubs, switches, routers, DSL/cable modems, and patch panels. It's specifically designed for use with 10GBase-T equipment and is backward compatible with Cat6 and Cat5e devices.
