Ten-metre shielded Cat 6A pack
This ten-pack of shielded Cat 6A Ethernet cables each measures ten feet and uses 26 AWG conductors with gold-plated RJ45 contacts. The SSTP/SFTP shielding reduces electromagnetic interference and crosstalk for reliable LAN connections. Backwards compatibility supports existing Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet equipment. Ideal for wiring servers, NAS devices, VoIP phones and PoE endpoints in home or office racks.
Practical limits of Cat 6A bandwidth
The Cat 6A standard delivers up to 10 Gbps data transfer at a maximum frequency of 550 MHz over the full channel length. Shielding helps maintain signal integrity in environments with electrical noise but does not raise the frequency ceiling. Runs beyond the standard channel distance will require repeaters or a higher category cable. The TIA/EIA 568-C.2 compliance mark confirms the cable meets the published performance baseline.
Shielding type decides fit for noisy sites
The SSTP/SFTP construction wraps each twisted pair in foil and adds an overall braid screen, a feature absent from unshielded Cat 6A alternatives. This makes the pack suitable for routes near power cables, fluorescent lighting or industrial gear where EMI is a concern. Buyers who need unshielded cables for easier termination or tighter bends should select a UTP variant instead.

Questions about this item
Which length and pack size should I choose for a home office?
This product is a 10ft 10-pack of Cat 6A shielded cables, so you get ten identical 10-foot runs in one box.
What does the 10Gbps rating mean when I plug these into my router and PC?
The cables support up to 10Gbps data transfer and 550 MHz bandwidth, enabling full 10-Gigabit Ethernet speeds on compatible hardware.
What shielding standard do these cables use and what does it prevent?
They use SSTP/SFTP (Screened Foiled Twisted Pair) shielding to block electromagnetic interference and reduce crosstalk noise.
