  • Tested to 500 MHz bandwidth supports 10GBase-T network performance
  • Snagless molded RJ45 connectors protect clips from damage during installation
  • White jacket enables colour-coded cable runs for easy identification
  • 6 ft length suits short patch connections in racks or workstations

What this cable is and who it suits

This shielded Cat6a Ethernet cable delivers 10 Gigabit network performance for home or office wiring. The S/FTP construction protects signals from electromagnetic interference and noise. It is tested to 500 MHz and supports 10GBase-T networks. The white jacket helps identify runs in structured cabling.

Thermals noise and power in normal use

Passive copper construction means no active cooling, no fan noise and no power draw. Shielding reduces crosstalk and external interference so the link stays stable at full throughput. Snagless molded RJ45 connectors protect the locking tabs from bending during routine moves. The cable simply works without adding heat or sound to the rack.

Build quality and daily connector experience

Molded strain relief and snagless boots keep the clips intact through repeated insertions. Shielded S/FTP design maintains signal integrity across the full 500 MHz bandwidth. White colour coding makes cable management and port tracing easier in dense panels. The 65030896993 part number matches the StarTech specification for traceability.

Questions about this item

How do I install the shielded S/FTP cable without damaging the RJ45 connector clips?

The RJ45 connectors are snagless and moulded; push the tab down fully before inserting into the port and pull the boot — not the cable — when removing to protect the clip.

What maintenance or replacement will the shielded Cat6a cable need over time?

No scheduled maintenance is required; inspect the moulded boots and snagless tabs periodically and replace the cable if the shield or connectors show physical damage.

At what frequency limit does the cable’s performance ceiling appear during sustained 10 GbE use?

Each cable is tested up to 500 MHz, which is the frequency ceiling for the 10GBase-T signal carried by the shielded S/FTP construction.
