Product Information

Full details

The Cablenet Cat6a Ethernet Patch Cable is an ideal choice for IT professionals, home office users, and network administrators seeking high-speed, 10 Gigabit performance for critical data applications. This cable provides superior signal integrity and protection against interference through its S/FTP design, though its reinforced shielding and LSZH construction may make it slightly less flexible than standard, unshielded patch cords.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this cable compatible with my existing Cat5e network?

Yes, the Cat6a cable is fully backwards compatible with Cat5e and Cat6 standards.

Can I use this cable outside?

No, this cable is designed for indoor use and is not rated for outdoor or direct sunlight exposure.

What is the benefit of LSZH?

LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) materials emit significantly less toxic and corrosive gas compared to standard PVC if a fire occurs.

Does this cable support Power over Ethernet?

Yes, it supports PoE++ (4PPoE), making it suitable for devices that require substantial power.

What does S/FTP shielding mean?

S/FTP indicates Screened and Foil Twisted Pair, meaning each individual pair is shielded, and an overall screen covers all pairs to eliminate crosstalk and interference.

Troubleshooting

Intermittent network connection

Verify both ends of the cable are securely seated in the RJ45 ports and ensure the locking tab is engaged.

Slow transfer speeds on 10Gbps network

Ensure that the network interface cards and switch ports on both ends are correctly configured for 10GBASE-T operation.

Device powered by PoE is not turning on

Confirm that your switch or power injector supports the specific PoE++ (4PPoE) power class required by your peripheral device.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-performance 10Gbps data transmission
  • Excellent EMI protection via S/FTP shielding
  • Durable snagless connector design
  • Fire-safe LSZH material composition
  • Supports modern PoE++ power standards

Cons

  • Increased cable stiffness due to shielding
  • Not intended for outdoor or direct sunlight exposure
  • Requires proper grounding to fully utilize shield benefits

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For optimal performance, ensure your network equipment is correctly grounded, as the S/FTP shielding relies on the path to ground to shunt interference. These cables are fully backwards compatible with Cat6, Cat5e, and Cat5 standards, making them a future-proof addition to existing networks. To care for your cables, avoid bending them at sharp 90-degree angles, which can damage the internal stranded copper conductors. When installing in high-density patches, use cable management organizers to support the weight of the cables and prevent tension on the RJ45 ports. Note that this cable is designed for indoor use only and should not be exposed to harsh outdoor environmental conditions.
