Fiber Cables Direct FCD-C6SH-TAA-RD-25F Shielded Cat6 Patch Cable
Overview
The Fiber Cables Direct FCD-C6SH-TAA-RD-25F is a 25-foot (7.62 meter) shielded Category 6 patch cable designed for environments where electromagnetic interference (EMI) or radio frequency interference (RFI) can degrade network performance. Its TAA compliance makes it suitable for government and sensitive enterprise deployments. The red color coding aids in network cable management, differentiating it from standard blue or gray cables, while snagless boots protect the locking tab during installation and removal. This cable ensures reliable data transmission for surveillance systems, network switches, and other IT infrastructure.
Compatibility
This shielded Cat6 cable is compatible with all standard networking equipment requiring RJ45 connectors, including but not limited to: IP cameras (e.g., Axis P32-series domes, Hikvision DS-2CD series, Hanwha X-series), network video recorders (NVRs), managed and unmanaged network switches (e.g., Cisco Catalyst, Ubiquiti UniFi, Netgear Managed), servers, and workstations. It supports data rates up to 10 Gigabit Ethernet over shorter distances, as defined by the Cat6 standard, and is backward compatible with Cat5e and Cat5 equipment.
Installation Notes
The snagless boots prevent the RJ45 connector's clip from breaking off during installation or moves, adds, and changes (MACs). The shielding requires proper grounding at both ends of the cable run to be effective against EMI/RFI. Ensure that network devices and patch panels are also grounded. For optimal performance, avoid sharp bends exceeding a 4x cable diameter radius, which can compromise the internal conductor integrity and shielding effectiveness.
