  • Connector B1 x RJ-45 Male
  • Length5 ft.
  • ColorOrange
  • Supports 10 Gigabit data transmission over copper cable

Cat6a Snagless UTP Cable for 10GBase-T

This five-foot orange patch cable carries Category 6A unshielded twisted-pair wiring with RJ-45 male connectors on both ends. It is built for 10 Gigabit Ethernet over copper up to 100 metres and suits network adapters, switches, routers, modems and patch panels.

Thermals Noise and Power Draw

Passive copper construction means no active cooling, no fan noise and no power consumption of its own. The cable simply carries the signal between powered devices without adding heat or acoustic load to the installation.

Upgrade From Cat6 or Lower Categories

Replaces older Category 6 or Category 5e patch cords when 10GBase-T links are required over the full 100-metre channel. The jump is worth it for new 10 Gigabit deployments or when alien crosstalk performance must meet ANSI/TIA 568 C.2 channel specifications.

FeaturesThis Snagless Unshielded Cat6a patch cable is ideal for use with 10GBase-T ports and equipment, such as network adapters, hubs, switches, routers, DSL/cable modems and patch panels, and enables 10 Gigabit data transmission over a 4 pair copper cable allowing connections up to 100 meters. Current Cat6 cabling systems may only support 10 Gigabit Ethernet over limited distances. Each patch cable is fully tested to meet ANSI/TIA 568 C.2 Cat6a channel requirements.
Constructed from high quality cable and plugs, this design offers improved alien cross talk performance. The Snagless hood is

Questions about this item

How do I install the RJ-45 connectors on this Cat6a patch cable without damaging the snagless hoods?

Align the connector with the port, push straight in until the tab clicks, and pull the boot back gently if resistance is felt; forcing the hood sideways can crack the snagless latch.

What maintenance or replacement will this 5 ft orange Cat6a cable need over time?

Inspect the RJ-45 contacts and boot for dust or cracks every few months; replace the patch cord if the latch no longer holds or if continuity tests show intermittent faults.

What limit appears first when this Cat6a UTP cable runs 10 Gigabit traffic continuously?

The 100 metre channel distance defined by ANSI/TIA 568 C.2 is the first hard limit; alien crosstalk margin narrows as the run approaches that length.
