Black shielded Cat6a Ethernet cable, 12ft, snagless RJ45 connectors

C2G Canada

C2G Canada C2G43844 Cat6a STP network ethernet cable 12ft 3.7m

SKU CH-083Y-CM7DQ MPN C2G43844

Shielded Cat6a patch cable, 12 ft, with snagless RJ45 connectors for 10 Gigabit Ethernet and EMI protection

  • TAA compliant for government and regulated projects
  • Snagless RJ45 clips survive repeated insertions
  • Shielded Cat6a foil blocks EMI and alien crosstalk
  • 12 ft (3.7 m) length fits standard rack runs
  • Operating range -20 °C to 75 °C suits harsh environments

12 ft Shielded Cat6a Patch Cable

This 12 ft (3.7 m) Cat6a STP cable is built with foil shielding and snagless RJ45 connectors. It meets ANSI/TIA-568.2-D Category 6A standards and supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections. The cable uses made in the USA copper conductors and an aluminum foil shield to counter EMI and alien crosstalk. It is TAA compliant for government procurement use.

Suited for 10GBase-T links and shielded installs

The shielded design protects high-speed 10 Gigabit network connections from noise and electromagnetic interference. It handles bandwidth-intensive voice, data and video distribution while reducing impedance and structural return loss. Installations that do not require foil shielding or TAA compliance may prefer an unshielded alternative.

Snagless boots and foil shield improve durability

Snagless connector boots protect the retaining clips during frequent insertion cycles. The aluminum foil shield wraps the twisted pairs to suppress EMI, RFI and alien crosstalk. The black jacket is rated for operating temperatures from -4° to 167°F (-20° to 75°C).

Questions about this item

What equipment do I need to use the 10 Gigabit capability of this Cat6a cable?

Connect it between two devices with 10GBase-T ports such as a network adapter, switch, router or patch panel to achieve the rated speed.

Will this shielded cable work with my older Cat5e patch panel and unshielded switch ports?

Yes, the RJ45 connectors are backward compatible; the foil shield simply remains unused on unshielded ports while the link negotiates at the highest common speed.

How can I verify the cable is delivering 10 Gigabit performance after installation?

Check the link lights on both ends — they should show a 10 Gbps connection — and run a throughput test between the two devices to confirm sustained speeds.
