Cat6A STP cable for dense installations

Monoprice 145410 is a Category 6A shielded twisted pair patch cable built with 26 AWG stranded bare copper conductors and 50 µm gold-plated RJ45 connectors. The non-booted design reduces the connector footprint for tighter routing in high-density racks and panels. It supports 500 MHz bandwidth for 10 Gbps Ethernet over the full 100 foot length.

Suits crowded racks and patch panels

Network engineers and installers who need maximum port density will benefit from the slim, non-booted plugs that sit closer to the jack. Builders who require a protective boot for frequent moves or strain relief should choose a booted variant instead. The stranded construction also makes it less suitable for solid-core permanent links inside walls.

500 MHz bandwidth enables 10 Gbps over 100 feet

The Category 6A rating guarantees 10 Gigabit Ethernet performance across the entire 100 foot run when terminated correctly. Shielded construction helps reject alien crosstalk in dense bundles. Installers must use shielded keystones or patch panels and maintain the ground path to realise the full specification.

Questions about this item

Will this 26AWG Cat6A STP cable work with my existing Cat5e and Cat6 patch panels and switches?

Yes, the RJ45 connectors are fully backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat6 ports, so it will link at the highest speed both ends support.

How can I verify the 500MHz bandwidth and 10G performance after installation?

Run a cable certifier or a 10GbE throughput test between the connected devices; a pass at 500MHz confirms the cable meets Cat6A specs.

Does the 100-foot blue cable include any boots, couplers or mounting hardware in the box?

The cable is non-booted and ships as a single 100-foot length with RJ45 plugs on both ends; no boots, couplers or mounting hardware are included.
