  • Cat6a rating supports 10 Gbps network speeds

Tripp Lite Cat6a 3 ft cable

This Tripp Lite N261-S03-YW is a Category 6a Ethernet cable measuring 3 ft (0.9 m) with RJ45 male connectors on both ends. The yellow snagless moulded slim jacket protects the locking tabs during installation and removal. It is built for 10 Gbit/s networking and Power over Ethernet applications.

Suited for short rack links not long runs

The 3 ft length fits patch-panel-to-switch connections inside a cabinet or a device-to-wall jack on a desk. Installers pulling cables through conduit or across rooms need a longer reel. Buyers who want more storage should look at a different product category.

Category 6a rating for 10 Gbit/s

The cable carries a Cat6a specification that supports 10 Gbit/s data rates. This rating is the single figure that determines whether the link meets the bandwidth requirement for 10 Gigabit Ethernet and PoE equipment.

Questions about this item

Should I choose this 3 ft yellow cable or a different length for my rack patching?

At 3 ft (0.9 m) this slim Cat6a jumper is suited to short rack-to-rack or device-to-panel links; select a longer version only if the cable run exceeds this distance.

What does the Cat6a rating mean for real-world 10 Gbps traffic on this 3 ft link?

The cable meets Category 6a performance, so it will carry 10 Gbps Ethernet without being the bottleneck on a 3 ft connection between switch, server or PoE device.

Does the RJ45 interface and UTP construction limit PoE power delivery on this cable?

The RJ45 male connectors and unshielded twisted-pair design support standard PoE power levels; the 3 ft length keeps voltage drop negligible for powered devices.
