3 ft Cat6a UTP patch cable
This three-foot Cat6a unshielded patch cable carries RJ-45 male connectors on both ends and is built to support 10 Gigabit data transmission over four-pair copper. The red jacket aids quick visual identification in dense rack or panel environments. It is tested to ANSI/TIA 568 C.2 Cat6a channel requirements and suits network adapters, switches, routers, modems and patch panels. The snagless hood protects the latch during frequent moves in high-density switch ports.
10 Gigabit headroom up to 100 metres
The cable handles 10 GbE across the full 100-metre channel distance allowed by the Cat6a specification, giving ample margin for typical patch-panel-to-switch or device-to-wall runs. Alien crosstalk performance is improved by the plug and cable construction, helping maintain signal integrity on crowded bundles. Runs longer than the standard channel limit will exceed the tested performance envelope and are not supported by this cable.
Replaces Cat6 links that fall short of 10 GbE
Existing Cat6 installations often restrict 10 Gigabit Ethernet to shorter distances; this Cat6a cable removes that constraint for the full channel length. The upgrade is worthwhile when deploying or extending 10GBase-T connections in data centres, wiring closets or workstation drops that require the certified distance. It does not add shielding, so environments needing screened cable for EMI protection should select a shielded alternative.

Questions about this item
Will this Cat6a cable work with my existing Cat6 switch ports?
Yes, the cable uses standard RJ-45 connectors and supports 10GBase-T, so it is backward compatible with Cat6 and Cat5e equipment while still meeting ANSI/TIA 568 C.2 Cat6a channel requirements.
How can I confirm the cable is delivering 10 Gigabit speeds after I plug it in?
Check the link speed in your operating system or switch management interface; it should report a 10 Gbps connection when both ends are connected to 10GBase-T ports.
Does the 3 ft red cable come with any extra accessories or do I need to buy connectors separately?
The cable arrives with RJ-45 male connectors already fitted on both ends and includes snagless boots and individual length labels; no additional connectors are required.
