Tripp Lite Cat6a 10G Shielded Cable

The Tripp Lite N262-012-AQ is a 12 ft aqua Cat6a shielded patch cord built for 10 Gbps Ethernet links. It connects switches, routers, hubs and patch panels in a 10GBase-T LAN. Snagless RJ45 plugs protect the locking tabs during installation. The cable also carries Power over Ethernet for compatible devices.

Cat6a 500 MHz bandwidth limit

Cat6a cable is rated to 500 MHz, which supports 10 Gbps up to the standard channel distance. Shielded twisted-pair construction rejects EMI and RFI that would otherwise corrupt data. Performance drops if the installed run exceeds the allowed length or if connectors are not properly terminated. The 12 ft length suits typical rack or desk connections.

Snagless RJ45 connectors for dense patching

The snagless boot prevents the latch from catching on adjacent cables when routing through crowded panels. This matters most in high-density switch cabinets where frequent moves risk breaking standard tabs. Buyers who need non-snagless plugs for a specific panel latch style should choose a different cable.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 12 ft Aqua cable or a different length for my 10GBase-T run?

The 12 ft (3.66 m) Aqua cable is certified for 10 Gbps at 500 MHz; choose a different length only if your patch-panel layout needs more or less reach.

What does the 10 Gbps rating mean when I plug this into my switch?

It means the Cat6a STP patch cord supports full 10GBase-T throughput up to 500 MHz bandwidth, delivering 10 Gbps data, voice and video across the 12 ft link.

How does the shielded RJ45 interface handle PoE and interference?

The shielded RJ45 M/M connectors carry Power over Ethernet while the STP construction dispels EMI/RFI line noise that can corrupt data or degrade equipment performance.
