FAQ
What is the maximum data transfer speed supported by this Cat6a cable?
This cable supports data transfer rates up to 10 Gbit/s, making it suitable for high-speed Ethernet applications including 10GBASE-T networks. It operates at frequencies up to 650 MHz, ensuring reliable performance for bandwidth-intensive tasks like large file transfers, video streaming, and data center operations.
How long is this patch cable, and is it suitable for long-distance runs?
The cable measures 70 feet (21.34 meters) in length, providing ample reach for connecting network devices across rooms or between racks. Cat6a cables like this one are designed to support 10 Gbit/s speeds up to 100 meters, so this 70-foot length operates well within that specification without signal degradation.
What are the connector types on each end of the cable?
Both ends feature RJ-45 male connectors with gold-plated contacts. Each end has one RJ-45 connector, making it a standard patch cable for connecting Ethernet devices such as computers, switches, and routers. The snagless boots on the connectors help prevent latch damage during use.
Does this cable have shielding, and why is that important?
Yes, this cable includes shielding to reduce electromagnetic interference (EMI) and crosstalk. Shielding helps maintain signal integrity in environments with electrical noise, such as near power cables or in industrial settings, ensuring stable data transmission and minimizing packet loss.
What does TAA compliance mean for this product?
TAA (Trade Agreements Act) compliance indicates that this cable is manufactured in the United States or another designated country, making it eligible for U.S. government procurement contracts. This compliance ensures the product meets specific sourcing requirements for federal, state, and institutional buyers.
What warranty comes with this Axiom patch cable?
Axiom provides a lifetime limited warranty for this cable, covering defects in materials and workmanship for the product's usable life. This warranty offers long-term assurance of quality and reliability, supporting deployments where durability and consistent performance are critical.
