Enhanced Strain Relief Design for Maximum Cable Protection

The precision-engineered strain relief boot provides crucial cable protection at the connector joint, where network cables are most vulnerable to damage. The molded boot's ribbed design offers excellent flex relief while maintaining proper cable geometry, essential for consistent Cat6a performance. The robust construction prevents cable kinking and maintains proper bend radius, ensuring signal integrity even in tight installation spaces. This attention to detail in the connector design helps achieve full compliance with ANSI/TIA 568 C.2 Cat6a specifications.

Technical Specifications

  • Multi-stage strain relief boot for enhanced cable protection
  • Maintains minimum bend radius requirements
  • Integrated cable retention system

Applications

  • Under-desk cable routing installations
  • Tight-space network deployments
  • High-traffic area network connections

FAQs

What is the maximum data speed supported by this Cat6a network cable?
This Cat6a network cable supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GBase-T) 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 data transmission over its entire length.
What are the key features of this C2G network cable?
This C2G network cable features a snagless shielded (STP) design, gold and nickel-plated connectors, and stranded copper conductors. It includes protective boots to prevent connector tab damage, electromagnetic interference shielding, and is constructed with bonded pairs to maintain twist spacing. The cable is also molded for durability and comes with a lifetime warranty.
What type of connectors does this cable use?
The cable features RJ-45 male connectors on both ends with gold and nickel plating for optimal connectivity and corrosion resistance. Each connector is equipped with snagless boots to protect the locking tabs during installation and removal, ensuring long-term durability.
Is this cable compatible with older network equipment?
Yes, this Cat6a cable is backward compatible with older network equipment that uses Cat6, Cat5e, and Cat5 standards. While it's optimized for 10GBase-T networks, it will work perfectly with slower speed networks including 10/100/1000 Mbps equipment like older switches, routers, and network adapters.
What is the length of this network cable?
This network cable is 3 feet (0.91 meters) in length. Each cable comes with an individual length label for easy identification and organization in your network setup.
