Black Box CAT6A-RD-3M Shielded Cat6A Patch Cable
Overview
The Black Box CAT6A-RD-3M is a 3-meter shielded Category 6A patch cable designed to deliver reliable, high-speed network connections in demanding environments. Its construction minimizes electromagnetic interference (EMI) and crosstalk, ensuring data integrity for critical surveillance systems and IT infrastructure. This cable is suitable for deployments requiring robust network performance where signal integrity is paramount.
Compatibility
This CAT6A cable is compatible with all standard networking equipment that utilizes RJ45 connectors, including network switches, routers, IP cameras, NVRs, and servers. It supports 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) speeds up to 100 meters, making it suitable for high-bandwidth applications such as 4K video streaming and large data transfers. Use this cable for connecting devices within a rack or between nearby network closets where Cat6A performance is specified.
Installation Notes
The shielded construction requires proper grounding to be effective. Ensure that both ends of the cable are connected to grounded RJ45 ports or patch panels. The cable's flexible jacket allows for installation in tight spaces without compromising its shielding integrity. Avoid sharp bends exceeding a 4x cable diameter radius to maintain optimal performance.
