30ft (9.1m) Cat6a Snagless Shielded STP Ethernet Network Patch Cable - Black
Shielded Cat6a patch cable, 30 ft (9.1 m) length, featuring snagless boots and 26AWG stranded copper conductors
The C2G CG00721 is a 30ft (9.1m) Cat6a Snagless Shielded STP Ethernet Network Patch Cable designed for high-speed 10GBase-T environments. This black patch cable is built to protect network connections from electromagnetic interference and noise, making it suitable for use with 10 Gigabit equipment including network adapters, switches, routers, hubs, and patch panels. It utilizes stranded copper conductors with 26AWG (7/0.16) sizing to handle bandwidth-intensive applications while reducing impedance and structural return loss (SRL). This cable is fully tested to meet ANSI/TIA 568 C.2 Cat6a component requirements, ensuring reliable performance for voice, data, and video distribution. To minimize Near-End Crosstalk (NEXT) levels, each individual pair is bonded together to maintain consistent twist-spacing throughout the line up to the termination point. The construction includes PVC jacket material and FMPE (Foam Polyethylene) insulation, with a 1.95 in (49.6 mm) bend radius. This SKU features a snagless, booted connector type for ease of installation in dense environments.
