Description

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

Overview

The Fiber Cables Direct FCD-C6A-SH-USA-YW-7F is a 7-foot, yellow, shielded twisted pair (STP) Cat6a patch cable designed for high-speed network infrastructure. Its snagless boot design prevents damage to the locking tab during installation and removal, crucial in dense server racks or wall plates. Manufactured in the USA and TAA compliant, this cable ensures reliable data transmission for demanding applications like 10 Gigabit Ethernet, supporting environments where electromagnetic interference (EMI) is a concern.

Compatibility

This Cat6a cable is backward compatible with Cat6 and Cat5e networks, but is optimized for Cat6a performance. It is suitable for connecting network devices such as IP cameras, NVRs, switches, servers, and workstations. Use it in any network requiring 10 Gbps speeds up to 100 meters, particularly in industrial or high-density office environments where signal integrity is paramount.

Installation Notes

The snagless boot design protects the RJ45 connector's clip from breakage during installation and disconnection, simplifying moves, adds, and changes. Ensure the cable is properly terminated and routed to avoid sharp bends that could exceed the minimum bend radius, which could degrade performance.
