Monoprice Cat6A STP Patch Cable 10ft

This Monoprice Cat6A STP Ethernet cable is a 10-foot shielded twisted-pair patch cord built for wired network connections. It uses 26AWG stranded pure bare copper conductors and RJ45 plugs with snagless boots. The cable meets UL Code 444 and TIA-568-C.2 fire and safety standards. It is suited for home, office or data-centre runs that require Cat6A performance.

550 MHz bandwidth for 10 GbE

The single specification that decides suitability is the 550 MHz bandwidth rating, which supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet over the full 10-foot length. Shielded construction reduces alien crosstalk in dense bundles. The pure bare copper conductors satisfy code requirements that copper-clad aluminium cannot meet. Verify that your switch and NIC ports are rated for 10 GbE to use this headroom.

Handles 10 GbE up to 10 feet

At 10 feet the cable comfortably handles 10 GbE traffic with margin for connector loss. Beyond this length the standard permits up to 100 metres for 10 GbE, but this specific assembly is only 3.048 metres long. It will not reach between distant cabinets without a coupler or longer run. Buyers needing longer shielded runs should select a different length.

Questions about this item

What does the 550 MHz bandwidth mean when the cable is installed in a network?

The 550 MHz rating indicates the cable supports frequencies up to 550 MHz, enabling 10 Gigabit Ethernet speeds over the full 10 ft length.

How does the RJ45 connector and Cat6A standard limit real-world performance?

The RJ45 connector and Cat6A specification cap the link at 10 Gbps over copper, with the 500 MHz tested bandwidth ensuring headroom for 10GBASE-T.

What physical space and mounting does the 10 ft STP cable with snagless boots require?

The 3.048 m black cable uses 26 AWG stranded conductors and snagless boots, so it bends easily in tight racks and protects the RJ45 clip during insertion.
