SKU CH-R5M4-RZF7C MPN NLYL-10F-CAT6A-PATCH

S/FTP shielded Cat6a cable delivers 10 Gbps at 500 MHz with 100 W PoE over 10 ft

  • Supports 10Gbps speeds with 500MHz Cat6a bandwidth
  • 100W PoE capability powers devices through the cable
  • Snagless RJ45 connectors prevent tab damage during installs
  • Flexible 27AWG LSZH jacket routes easily in tight spaces

10 ft Cat6a cable for 10GBASE-T networks

This 10 ft yellow Cat6a patch cable uses S/FTP shielding and 27 AWG bare copper conductors to support 10 Gbps data rates at 500 MHz bandwidth. Gold-plated RJ45 connectors with snagless boots ensure reliable insertion. The LSZH jacket emits low smoke and no halogen in a fire. It is rated for 100 W Power over Ethernet.

Practical limits of Cat6a and PoE

Cat6a reaches 10 Gbps only up to 100 m; longer runs drop to lower speeds. The 27 AWG conductors carry 100 W PoE, but voltage drop increases with length, so very long cables may not deliver full power to the device. Alien crosstalk rises in dense bundles, so keep separation from other cables. The LSZH jacket is less flexible than standard PVC, making tight bends harder.

Highlights

  • Supports 10Gbps speeds with 500MHz Cat6a bandwidth
  • 100W PoE capability powers devices through the cable
  • Snagless RJ45 connectors prevent tab damage during installs
  • Flexible 27AWG LSZH jacket routes easily in tight spaces

Questions about this item

Should I choose a longer or shorter length for my 10GBASE-T run?

This cable is a fixed 10 ft length. Keep the total channel under 100 m for 10GBASE-T; if your patch-panel-to-device distance is shorter, a shorter cable reduces slack and insertion loss.

Will the 500 MHz bandwidth guarantee 10 Gbps throughput on my switch?

The 500 MHz rating meets Cat6a specs for 10GBASE-T up to 100 m. Actual throughput also depends on switch port quality, total channel length, and installation practices such as bend radius and connector seating.
