Kenable Ethernet Cable - Cat6a - STP Shielded - RJ45 - 3m - White

This Cat6a cable supports data transfer rates of up to 10,000 Mbit/s (10 Gigabit Ethernet).

Yes, Cat6a cables are backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat6 devices and ports.

S/FTP stands for overall Shielded/Foiled Twisted Pair. It means the entire cable bundle is foil shielded, and each individual twisted pair within the bundle is also foil shielded, providing maximum protection against interference.

The cable is approximately 2.2mm thick and 7.2mm wide, making it a low-profile, flat design.

This cable is designed for indoor use. Outdoor environments may expose it to elements that can degrade the materials and performance.

The cable uses 32AWG pure copper stranded conductors.

While the cable itself can pass power, the 32AWG gauge might be a limitation for higher power PoE applications. It is primarily designed for data transmission.

Ensure both RJ45 connectors are securely plugged into their respective ports. Verify that the cable is not damaged and try a different port on your router or switch. Check if the cable is compatible with the speed requirements of your connected devices.

Inspect the cable for any visible damage. Ensure the cable is not routed near sources of strong electromagnetic interference. Test the cable with different devices or ports to isolate the issue.

While designed to be flat, the shielding can add some stiffness. Gently guide the cable along the intended path, avoiding sharp angles. For very tight bends, consider using a different type of cable or cable management accessories.
