Snagless Cat6A patch cable
The three-foot green cable uses 24 AWG stranded copper conductors rated for 250 MHz bandwidth. Molded snagless boots protect the RJ45 locking tabs during repeated insertion and removal. ETL verification confirms the assembly meets Cat6A transmission requirements.
Suited for short rack or desk links
Ideal for patch-panel-to-switch runs, workstation drops or PoE devices that need up to 100 W of power. The 160 ft channel limit means this length alone cannot span longer backbone segments; installers planning runs beyond that distance should look at a different solution.
250 MHz bandwidth rating
This single figure determines whether the cable supports 10 Gbps Ethernet and high-power PoE over the installed channel length. If the network design demands a higher frequency class, this cable will not meet the specification.

Questions about this item
What does the 10 Gbps rating mean when the cable is installed in a live network?
The 10 Gbps rating is supported up to 160 ft at 250 MHz, so a 3 ft run will deliver full 10 Gbps throughput provided the connected ports and switch also operate at that speed.
Which Ethernet standard and connector type does this cable use, and what is the practical limit?
It uses Cat6A UTP construction with RJ45 male connectors on both ends, capped at 10 Gbps over 160 ft and 250 MHz bandwidth.
What physical space and mounting considerations apply to the snagless connectors?
Each end has a molded snagless RJ45 plug with strain relief; the boot adds minimal depth so the cable fits standard keystone jacks, patch panels and switch ports without blocking adjacent ports.
