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 15-foot length.
What are the key features of this C2G network cable's shielding?
This cable features STP (Shielded Twisted Pair) construction that provides comprehensive electromagnetic interference (EMI) protection. The shielding helps protect data transmission from external noise and interference, making it ideal for industrial environments or areas with high EMI. Each pair is individually bonded to maintain precise twist-spacing up to the termination point, which minimizes Near-End Crosstalk (NEXT) levels.
What type of connectors does this cable use and what is their quality?
The cable features RJ-45 male connectors on both ends with gold and nickel plating for superior connectivity and corrosion resistance. The connectors are designed with a snagless boot type that prevents the locking tab from catching or breaking during installation and removal, ensuring longer cable life and easier cable management.
What is the length and color of this network cable?
This network cable is 15 feet (4.57 meters) in length and comes in black color. The cable features individual length labels for easy identification and inventory management. The black color helps in professional installations where discrete cable management is desired.
What devices is this cable compatible with?
This Cat6a cable is compatible with a wide range of network devices including network adapters, hubs, switches, routers, DSL/cable modems, and patch panels. It's specifically designed for use with 10GBase-T ports and equipment, making it suitable for both residential and commercial network installations requiring high-speed connectivity.
