Description

Fiber Cables Direct FCD-C6A-SH-USA-RD-7F 7ft Shielded Cat6a Patch Cable

Overview

The Fiber Cables Direct FCD-C6A-SH-USA-RD-7F is a 7-foot, red, shielded Cat6a patch cable designed for network deployments requiring robust signal integrity and compliance. Its snagless design prevents damage during installation, while the shielded twisted pair construction minimizes electromagnetic interference (EMI) and crosstalk, crucial for high-bandwidth applications like surveillance video or data transfer in electrically noisy environments. Manufactured in the USA and TAA compliant, this cable meets stringent requirements for government and enterprise networks.

Compatibility

This Cat6a cable is backward compatible with Cat6 and Cat5e networks but is optimized for Cat6a performance, supporting 10 Gigabit Ethernet up to 100 meters. It is suitable for connecting network devices such as IP cameras, NVRs, switches, routers, and workstations. Use it anywhere a reliable, high-speed, shielded network connection is needed, especially in proximity to power cables or industrial equipment.

Installation Notes

The snagless boot design protects the RJ45 connector tab, preventing accidental disconnections and simplifying cable management in dense rack environments. The shielded construction requires proper grounding to be effective; ensure all connected equipment and network infrastructure are also properly grounded.
