Intellinet Cat6a S/FTP Patch Cable

The Intellinet Cat6a S/FTP patch cable provides a 5 ft shielded link for workstations, switches and PoE devices that need 10 Gbps throughput at 500 MHz. Its stranded 26 AWG pure copper conductors and 50 micro-inch gold-plated RJ45 contacts deliver reliable conductivity for high-density rack or desk connections.

Practical limits of Cat6a 500 MHz

The cable is certified to ISO/IEC 11801 and EN 50173-1 Class EA, supporting 10GBase-T up to the standard channel distance. S/FTP construction with individual pair foil and overall aluminum braid suppresses alien crosstalk in bundled runs, while the stranded design favors patch-panel flexibility over solid-core horizontal reach.

Upgrade from Cat6 or unshielded links

Replacing Cat6 or UTP patch cords with this S/FTP cable removes the 1 Gbps bottleneck and adds shielding for noisy environments. The jump is worth it when moving to 10 GbE switches, deploying PoE++ endpoints, or routing cables parallel to power lines where NEXT would degrade unshielded pairs.

Questions about this item

Should I choose this 5 ft yellow cable or a different length for my rack?

The 5 ft length suits short rack-to-device runs; pick a longer cable only if the distance between ports exceeds five feet.

What does the 10G and 500 MHz rating deliver on my switch?

It guarantees 10 Gbps throughput at up to 500 MHz bandwidth when both ends negotiate 10GBase-T.

Is the RJ45 connector limited by the T568A or T568B wiring standard?

The cable is color-coded for both T568A and T568B, so it works with either pin-out without performance loss.
