10 ft Cat6a Shielded Cable
This 10 ft Cat6a shielded cable supports 10 gigabit Ethernet network connections for home and office use. Snagless RJ45 male-to-male connectors provide a reliable link. The ultra-flexible PVC jacket offers double shielding against electromagnetic and radio frequency interference. It is sold as a single blue cable.
Upgrade from Cat5e or Cat6
Replace older Cat5e or unshielded Cat6 cables when 10 gigabit speeds are required over short runs. The shielded construction prevents crosstalk and noise from nearby equipment. The jump is worth it for high-throughput tasks like large file transfers or server links. Existing gigabit hardware will still operate normally.
Snagless connectors simplify routing
Snagless boots protect the locking tabs during pulls through conduit or cable trays. The flexible jacket eases bends behind racks or desks. Ensure both ends seat fully to avoid intermittent links. Shielded plugs require metal-to-metal contact at the jack for full grounding benefit.

Questions about this item
What connector type does the 10ft Cat6a cable use?
It uses RJ45 male connectors on both ends for a direct patch cable connection.
How do I avoid damaging the snagless RJ45 connectors when routing the 10ft cable?
Press the release tab fully before inserting or removing the plug; forcing it bends the internal latch and causes intermittent contact.
Does the double-shielded PVC jacket on this 10ft cable degrade over time?
The PVC jacket resists cracking under normal indoor use; replace the cable only if the shielding is kinked or connectors become loose.
