0.5ft (0.15m) Cat6a Snagless Shielded (STP) Ethernet Network Patch Cable - Blue
0.5ft (0.2m) Cat6a snagless shielded (STP) blue Ethernet patch cable for 10GBase-T network equipment
The C2G CG00973 is a 0.5ft (0.2m) blue Cat6a snagless shielded (STP) Ethernet network patch cable designed for high-speed 10GBase-T environments. This cable is intended for use with network adapters, hubs, switches, routers, DSL/cable modems, and patch panels to protect 10 Gigabit network connections from electromagnetic interference and noise. The construction features 26AWG bare copper stranded conductors and FMPE (Foam Polyethylene) insulation. Each individual pair is bonded together to maintain twist-spacing up to the termination point, which helps minimize Near-End Crosstalk (NEXT) levels. This Cat6a patch cable is fully tested to meet ANSI/TIA 568 C.2 Cat6a component requirements, addressing impedance and structural return loss (SRL) for bandwidth-intensive video, voice, and data distribution. This specific SKU is part of a series available in various lengths and colors, such as the black version (SKU: CG00975).
