Reliable 10Gbps Performance

Experience consistent high-speed connectivity with this 50ft Shielded CAT6a Ethernet Cable. Supporting 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GBASE-T), it ensures fast data transmission for demanding network environments such as data centers, NAS, and SFP modules.

The cable’s 500 MHz frequency rating enables smooth operation with low latency, ideal for critical applications including IP cameras, PoE switches, and access points.

Superior Shielding and Wiring

Each of the four twisted pairs in the cable is individually shielded with aluminum-mylar foil and tinned copper braid (S/FTP), minimizing electromagnetic interference (EMI) for reliable signal integrity.

27AWG pure bare copper wire for enhanced conductivity and low resistance
Foiled and braided shielding on each pair for maximal EMI protection

Durable and Safe Construction

The flexible Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) jacket reduces fire-related smoke and toxic emissions, increasing safety during installations in confined or poorly ventilated spaces including industrial, transportation, and residential environments.

Snagless RJ45 connectors with 50-micro inch gold plating reduce connector wear and signal loss
Robust cable jacket and strain reliefs enhance durability

Versatile Network Compatibility

This cable supports Power over Ethernet (PoE++) up to 100 watts, delivering reliable power and data simultaneously to connected devices.

It maintains backward compatibility with Cat6 and Cat5/5e standards, enabling seamless integration into existing networks.
