Product Features
Technical Overview
This CAT6A patch cable operates at a frequency of 650 MHz, supporting data transfer rates up to 10 Gbit/s over its 1-foot length. The 28 AWG stranded copper conductors provide durability and flexibility, while the gold-plated contacts enhance signal integrity and corrosion resistance. The cable features Near End Crosstalk (NEXT) reduction technology, which helps maintain clear data transmission in high-speed networks.
The snagless boot design prevents the retention clip from catching on other cables or equipment, simplifying installation and reducing wear. The ultra-thin jacket allows for improved airflow and easier routing in tight spaces, such as patch panels and server racks. Shielding is applied throughout the cable to protect against external noise, ensuring consistent performance in electrically noisy environments.
Key Product Advantages
The Axiom BENDnFLEX patch cable offers several advantages for network deployments. Its ultra-thin design reduces bulk and improves cable management, while the snagless boots prevent accidental disconnections and damage. The gold-plated RJ-45 connectors ensure reliable connectivity and longevity, even with frequent plugging and unplugging.
Enhanced Durability
Constructed with stranded 28 AWG wires and a robust jacket, this cable withstands bending and flexing without performance degradation, ideal for dynamic office or data center environments.
- Stranded copper conductors
- Lifetime warranty
- TAA compliant
Superior Signal Quality
Shielding and gold-plated contacts minimize signal loss and interference, supporting high-speed data transfer up to 10 Gbit/s for demanding applications like streaming and large file transfers.
Deployment / Use Cases
This patch cable is versatile for various network scenarios. It is ideal for connecting network devices such as switches, routers, and servers in data centers, offices, or home networks.

FAQ
What is the maximum data transfer speed of this CAT6A cable?
This Axiom CAT6A patch cable supports data transfer rates up to 10 Gbit/s, making it suitable for high-speed network applications such as gigabit Ethernet, streaming, and large file transfers. It operates at a frequency of 650 MHz to ensure stable performance in demanding environments.
Are the connectors on this cable gold-plated?
Yes, both RJ-45 connectors on this patch cable feature gold plating. This enhances conductivity, reduces corrosion, and ensures reliable connections over time, which is important for maintaining signal integrity in network setups.
Does this cable include shielding to reduce interference?
Yes, this cable is fully shielded to minimize electromagnetic interference (EMI) and crosstalk. This shielding helps maintain clear data transmission, especially in environments with multiple cables or electrical noise, supporting consistent network performance.
What is the benefit of the snagless boot design?
The snagless boot prevents the RJ-45 connector's retention clip from catching on other cables or equipment during installation or removal. This reduces the risk of damage to the clip and connector, making it easier to handle in dense wiring setups like server racks.
Is this cable TAA compliant?
Yes, this Axiom patch cable is TAA (Trade Agreements Act) compliant, meaning it meets U.S. government procurement standards for origin and manufacturing. This makes it suitable for use in federal contracts and other regulated environments where compliance is required.
What is the warranty on this network cable?
This cable comes with a lifetime limited warranty from Axiom, covering defects in materials and workmanship. This warranty provides long-term assurance of quality and reliability for professional network deployments.
