15ft (4.6m) Cat6a Snagless Shielded STP Ethernet Network Patch Cable - Black
Shielded Cat6a patch cable for 10GBase-T networking, 15 ft length, featuring snagless boots and stranded copper conductors
The C2G CG00718 is a 15 ft (4.6 m) Cat6a Snagless Shielded STP Ethernet Network Patch Cable designed to support high-speed 10GBase-T applications. This black patch cable is engineered to protect network connections from electromagnetic interference and noise, making it an essential component for bandwidth-intensive voice, data, and video distribution. The cable features stranded copper conductors with 26AWG (7/0.16) bare copper wiring, utilizing FMPE (Foam Polyethylene) insulation to ensure performance. Each individual pair is bonded together to maintain twist-spacing from the termination point to the end of the line, which helps minimize Near-End Crosstalk (NEXT) levels. This cable is fully tested to meet ANSI/TIA 568 C.2 Cat6a component requirements. The snagless design includes PVC connector hoods and booted connectors to protect the RJ-45 male terminations. This cable is suitable for use with network adapters, hubs, switches, routers, and patch panels, and is rated for operating temperatures between -4°F (-20°C) and 176°F (80°C).
