1.524 m Cat6A Patch Cable

This 1.524 metre Cat6A patch cable uses 26 AWG stranded pure bare copper conductors and shielded twisted pair construction. It is rated for 550 MHz bandwidth and supports 10 Gbps Ethernet. The cable meets UL 444 and TIA-568-C.2 fire and safety standards.

Home and Office Network Runs

Suitable for connecting routers, switches and devices in home or office networks where a short shielded run is required. Not intended for buyers who need longer cable lengths, outdoor-rated jackets or unshielded UTP cable for easier routing.

Snagless Boot Protection

The moulded snagless boot protects the RJ45 retaining clip from damage during insertion and removal. This helps maintain a secure connection over repeated plug cycles. No additional software or accessories are bundled with this cable.

Questions about this item

Does my router or switch need a 10 GbE RJ45 port to use this 550 MHz Cat6A cable?

The cable terminates in standard RJ45 plugs, so any Gigabit or 10 GbE RJ45 port will accept it; 10 GbE is required only if you want the full 10 Gbit/s throughput the 550 MHz bandwidth supports.

Will the STP shielding and 26 AWG conductors work reliably when patched alongside older Cat5e or Cat6 cables in the same rack?

Yes, the foil-shielded twisted pairs and pure bare copper 26 AWG conductors meet the same TIA-568-C.2 pinout, so they interoperate with Cat5e and Cat6 links without crosstalk issues.

How can I verify the link is actually running at 10 Gbit/s after I plug in this 1.524 m purple cable?

Check the port LEDs on both ends — most 10 GbE gear shows amber or green for 10 Gbit/s — or run a speed test between two 10 GbE devices and confirm throughput near 10 Gbit/s.
