Tripp Lite Cat6a 15 ft cable

The Tripp Lite N262-015-AQ is a 15 ft Cat6a shielded twisted-pair patch cable with RJ45 connectors on both ends. It is built for installers and network administrators who need a reliable 10 Gbps link in a 10GBase-T local area network. The aqua jacket provides easy visual identification in dense patch panels.

10 Gbps capacity and 500 MHz headroom

The cable is rated for 10 Gbps data, voice and video transmission at frequencies up to 500 MHz. This bandwidth comfortably handles 10GBase-T equipment including switches, routers, hubs, modems, adapters and patch panels. Performance drops off beyond the 15 ft length or when the connected hardware does not support the 10 Gbps standard.

Cat6a shielded interface limits

The STP construction with foil shielding dispels EMI and RFI line noise that can corrupt data or degrade equipment performance. Snagless RJ45 connectors protect the locking tabs during repeated insertions. The cable supports Power over Ethernet so compatible devices draw power through the same run. It does not serve applications that require fibre optics or longer unrepeatered runs.

Questions about this item

Will the 15 ft Cat6a 10G-Certified cable work with my existing Cat5e patch panel and 1 Gbps switch?

Yes, the Cat6a cable is backward compatible with Cat5e infrastructure and will operate at 1 Gbps on your current switch while the 500 MHz bandwidth and shielding reduce crosstalk.

How can I verify the 10 Gbps link is active after connecting the aqua cable to my 10GBase-T switch?

Check the switch port LEDs for a 10 Gbps indicator and confirm the OS network adapter shows a 10 Gbps link speed; the 10G-Certified rating ensures the cable meets the standard.

Does the N262-015-AQ include any couplers or wall plates, or is it just the shielded patch cord with snagless RJ45 plugs?

The box contains only the 15 ft (4.57 m) shielded STP patch cord with snagless RJ45 male connectors on both ends; couplers, wall plates or keystones are sold separately.
