Reliable 10 Gigabit Performance

This 5-foot Cat6a Ethernet cable delivers fast and stable 10 Gbps network connectivity, ideal for high-bandwidth applications such as media streaming, NAS access, and gaming.

It is designed to meet the demands of 10GBASE-T networks ensuring low latency and reliable data transmissions.

Robust Shielded Construction

Featuring S/FTP shielding, the cable pairs are individually foil shielded with an overall braided shield that provides excellent protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI).

Aluminum-mylar foil and tinned copper braid shields
Minimizes signal loss and crosstalk for clear connections

Durable and Safe Materials

The jacket is made from Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) material which emits low toxic fumes and smoke during fires, enhancing safety in environments like offices, industrial areas, trains, and aircraft.

Flexible 5.7 mm round cable
Flame-retardant and compliant with building regulations

Precision Gold-Plated Connectors

Snagless RJ45 connectors feature 50-microinch gold plating that ensures a reliable connection while preventing corrosion and wear.

Snagless design protects the connectors during installation for a secure fit.

Straight male RJ45 connectors on both ends
Connector boot prevents snagging in tight spaces

Versatile Compatibility

Backward compatible with Cat6 and Cat5/5e standards, allowing easy integration into existing network setups without sacrificing performance.

Supports devices requiring Power over Ethernet (PoE++) delivering up to 100W power output.

Ideal for PoE switches, IP cameras, access points, and SFP modules

Quality Assurance and Testing

Each cable undergoes rigorous individual testing with Fluke DSX2-8000 CableAnalyzer to guarantee Cat6a performance and reliability.

ETL Verified for compliance with industry standards, ensuring consistent high quality.
