145434 Cat6A STP cable for high-density installs
This 30-foot shielded twisted-pair cable uses 26 AWG stranded bare copper conductors and 500 MHz bandwidth to support 10 Gigabit Ethernet runs. The non-booted RJ45 plugs reduce bulk so the cable fits cleanly into crowded patch panels and server racks.
500 MHz headroom and 10 Gbps throughput
The 500 MHz rating provides comfortable headroom for 10 Gbps traffic across the full 30-foot length, while the foil shielding resists alien crosstalk in dense bundles. Beyond 30 feet the same gauge would need a higher category to keep the same speed guarantee.
Gold-plated contacts and non-booted RJ45
Fifty-micron gold plating on the copper contacts resists corrosion and maintains low contact resistance over repeated mating cycles. The non-booted design saves space in high-density racks but offers no strain-relief boot, so installers should secure the cable run to prevent accidental unplugging.

Questions about this item
Will the 26AWG stranded conductors and 500MHz bandwidth of this Cat6A cable work with my existing 10G switch ports?
Yes, the cable is rated for 10G speeds and 500MHz bandwidth, so it will operate at full specification when connected to compatible 10G switch ports.
How can I verify the 50µm gold-plated contacts are making a solid connection after I plug the cable in?
Check for a firm click when the RJ45 connectors seat, then confirm link lights on both devices show the expected 10G or 1G rate with no packet loss.
Does the 30-foot non-booted cable include any cable ties or mounting clips, or do I need to buy them separately?
The package contains only the single 30-foot Cat6A STP cable with RJ45 ends; cable ties, clips or other management accessories are not included.
