20 ft Cat6a 10 Gbps patch cable

This 20-foot Aqua Cat6a patch cable carries 10 Gbps over four-pair unshielded copper with RJ-45 male connectors on both ends. It is built for high-speed network links in offices, data centres or home labs that need reliable 10 Gigabit performance.

Snagless boot and individual testing

A snag-free strain-relief boot protects the connector tabs during repeated insertions and cable pulls. Every cable is individually tested by the manufacturer to verify it meets the Cat6a specification before it ships.

Verify connector spacing and jacket colour

Check that the snagless boot fits the port density on your switch or patch panel without blocking adjacent ports. Confirm the Aqua jacket matches your colour-coding scheme so the cable is identifiable in a crowded rack.

Questions about this item

Will the snagless boots on the N261-020-AQ need replacing after repeated unplugging?

The snag-free strain relief boots are moulded onto the RJ45 plugs and protect the latch during repeated insertion and removal; they are not a separate replaceable part.

What limits the 10 Gbps speed on this 20 ft Cat6a cable during sustained transfers?

The cable is rated for 10 Gbps over its full 20 ft length; the practical limit is the connected equipment's port speed, not the cable itself.

Does the aqua UTP jacket run warmer or draw more power than a standard Cat6 cable when used all day?

The unshielded twisted-pair construction carries only data signals, so it generates no measurable heat and draws no power regardless of how long it runs.
