10ft (3m) Cat6a Snagless Shielded STP Ethernet Network Patch Cable - Blue
10ft Cat6a shielded STP patch cable in blue, featuring snagless boots for high-speed 10GBase-T network protection
The C2G CG00681 is a 10ft (3.1 m) blue Cat6a snagless shielded STP Ethernet network patch cable designed for high-speed data environments. This cable is engineered for use with 10GBase-T ports and equipment, including network adapters, hubs, switches, routers, DSL/cable modems, and patch panels. By utilizing a shielded STP construction, it protects 10 Gigabit network connections from electromagnetic interference and noise. The cable features 26AWG bare copper stranded conductors and FMPE (Foam Polyethylene) insulation to handle bandwidth-intensive applications. Each pair is bonded to maintain twist-spacing through the termination point, which significantly reduces Near-End Crosstalk (NEXT) levels. This Cat6a patch cable is fully tested to meet ANSI/TIA 568 C.2 component requirements and is designed for reliability in professional voice, data, and video distribution environments. The cable includes a 0.24 in (6.2 mm) diameter and a bend radius of 1.95 in (49.6 mm).
