20ft (6.1m) TAA-Compliant F-Series Cat6a Snagless Shielded (STP) Network Cable - White
20ft TAA-compliant Cat6a shielded (STP) snagless patch cable in white, designed for 10GBase-T high-speed network environments
The C2G43973 is a 20 ft (6.1 m) TAA-compliant Cat6a snagless shielded (STP) network cable in white, engineered to meet the rigorous requirements of United States government projects and facilities. This passive patch cable utilizes stranded copper conductors and 50-micron gold-plated contacts to ensure signal integrity and reliable performance in high-density environments. Designed for 10GBase-T ports, it is suitable for use with network adapters, switches, hubs, routers, and patch panels. The shielded STP construction, featuring an aluminum foil shield, protects 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections from electromagnetic interference (EMI), radio frequency interference (RFI), and alien crosstalk. This cable is CMR rated for riser applications and is constructed with a PVC jacket. The snagless RJ-45 male connectors are designed to protect the clips from damage during high-frequency insertion cycles, and the cable complies with ANSI/TIA-568.2-D and ISO/IEC 11801-1 industry standards. This 0.24 in (6 mm) diameter cable is TAA compliant and operates within a temperature range of -4° - 167°F (-20° - 75°C).
