Product Features
Technical Overview
This cable meets Category 6a specifications with 650 MHz bandwidth, supporting 10 Gigabit Ethernet over its 3-foot length. The S/FTP shielding combines overall foil shielding with individual pair foil shielding, providing excellent protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and crosstalk.
The 26 AWG stranded copper conductors ensure flexibility and reliable conductivity. Gold-plated RJ-45 connectors maintain optimal signal integrity and resist corrosion over repeated connections. The booted design protects the connector latch from damage during installation and removal.
Key Product Advantages
This patch cable combines premium construction with practical features that enhance network reliability and installation convenience. The comprehensive shielding and quality materials ensure consistent performance in demanding environments.
Superior Interference Protection
S/FTP shielding provides dual-layer protection against both external EMI and internal crosstalk between wire pairs, maintaining signal integrity for high-speed data transmission.
- Overall foil shield blocks external interference
- Individual pair foil shields prevent crosstalk
- Maintains 10 Gbit/s performance in noisy environments
Durable Connector Design
Molded boots and strain relief protect the RJ-45 connectors from physical damage during frequent connections and disconnections, extending the cable's service life.
- Boots prevent latch breakage
- Strain relief reduces cable stress at connectors
- Gold plating ensures reliable contact over time
Deployment / Use Cases
This 3-foot CAT6A patch cable is ideal for short-run connections between network equipment where maximum performance and reliability are required. The compact length makes it perfect for organized cable management in racks and enclosures.
Common applications include connecting switches to servers, routers to patch panels, or any network device requiring high-speed Ethernet connectivity. The shielding makes it suitable for environments with electrical interference, while the professional gray color works well in visible installations.
Data Center & Server Room Use
Connect servers, switches, and storage devices in rack-mounted configurations where space is limited and performance is critical.
Office Network Infrastructure
Link network equipment in telecom closets or connect workstations to wall outlets where reliable high-speed connectivity is essential.

FAQ
What is the maximum data transfer speed this cable supports?
This CAT6A cable supports data transfer rates up to 10 Gbit/s (10 Gigabit Ethernet). It's designed for high-speed network applications and maintains this performance over its entire 3-foot length when used with compatible networking equipment.
What does S/FTP shielding mean for this Ethernet cable?
S/FTP stands for Shielded/Foil Twisted Pair. This cable has both an overall foil shield around all wire pairs and individual foil shields around each twisted pair. This dual shielding provides superior protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and crosstalk compared to unshielded or minimally shielded cables.
What are the connector types on each end of this patch cable?
Both ends feature standard RJ-45 male connectors with gold-plated contacts. Each end has exactly one RJ-45 connector, making this a straight-through patch cable suitable for connecting network devices like computers, switches, routers, and servers.
Is this cable suitable for PoE (Power over Ethernet) applications?
Yes, the 26 AWG copper conductors and robust construction make this cable suitable for Power over Ethernet applications. The shielding helps maintain power delivery integrity alongside data transmission, though specific PoE compatibility should be verified with your networking equipment specifications.
