SANOXY Cat6A Shielded STP Network Ethernet Cable 5FT 10Gbps 500MHz 26AWG Gold 45 50 Blue

SKU CH-1157-VB84K

A 5 ft shielded Cat6A patch cord with 26 AWG pure copper conductors, 50-micron gold-plated contacts and a non-booted design for 10 Gbps at 500 MHz in tight spaces

Length 5 ft.

Show 3 more configurations
  • 10 Gbps speed and 500 MHz bandwidth for high-performance networking
  • Shielded STP construction reduces electromagnetic interference and crosstalk
  • 26 AWG pure bare copper conductors ensure excellent conductivity and minimal signal loss
  • 50-micron gold-plated RJ45 contacts provide corrosion resistance and stable signal contact
  • Non-booted connector design saves space and simplifies installation in high-density environments

Ultra-Short Patch Cable for High-Density Racks

This 5 ft Cat6A shielded STP cable is built for close-range links between patch panels, switches and side-by-side equipment in crowded racks. Its non-booted RJ45 plugs save valuable port space and simplify insertion or removal during maintenance. Pure bare copper 26 AWG conductors and 50-micron gold-plated contacts deliver the conductivity and corrosion resistance expected in professional installations. The blue jacket aids quick visual identification in dense cable bundles.

Sustained 10 Gbps Throughput with 500 MHz Bandwidth

Shielded twisted-pair construction suppresses electromagnetic interference and crosstalk, preserving signal integrity when multiple cables run parallel in active environments. The 500 MHz bandwidth headroom supports continuous 10 Gbps data streams for streaming, gaming and cloud workloads without the degradation seen on unshielded links under load. Stranded 26 AWG conductors maintain flexibility for repeated re-patching while keeping attenuation low across the full channel. Gold-plated contacts ensure stable resistance over years of mating cycles.

Upgrade Path from Cat5e or Unshielded Cat6 Runs

Replacing older Cat5e or unshielded Cat6 patch cords with this Cat6A STP cable removes the 1 Gbps bottleneck and adds alien-crosstalk protection in dense bundles. The jump is worthwhile when 10 Gbps NICs, switches or NAS devices are deployed and cable runs stay within the 5 ft reach. Installations that already use shielded infrastructure gain full backward compatibility without re-terminating existing horizontal cabling. Builders needing longer horizontal runs or outdoor ratings should select a different cable type.

Questions about this item

Does the 26AWG shielded STP construction keep the cable cool and quiet during all-day 10Gbps use?

The cable has no active components, so it produces no noise and generates no measurable heat while carrying 10Gbps traffic.

What devices must I already own to use the non-booted RJ45 connectors on this 5FT patch cord?

You need equipment with standard RJ45 Ethernet ports — such as a switch, router, patch panel or network card — to plug the connectors into.

Will the 500MHz Cat6A cable work reliably alongside my older Cat5e patch leads in the same patch panel?

Yes, the cable is backward compatible and will negotiate the highest speed both ends support when mixed with Cat5e or Cat6 links.
