International Connectors and Cable ICPCSX03BK Cat6a Patch Cord

Overview

The International Connectors and Cable ICPCSX03BK is a 10-pack of 3-foot Cat6a U/FTP patch cords designed for high-density network deployments where cable management and signal integrity are critical. Each cable features individual pair shielding (U/FTP) to minimize crosstalk and electromagnetic interference (EMI), crucial for maintaining data integrity in environments with high port counts or near power sources. The low-profile, snag-free strain relief boot simplifies installation in tight spaces, preventing cable damage during connection and disconnection. This pack is ideal for connecting network devices like switches, servers, and workstations in data centers, enterprise networks, or surveillance systems requiring robust Category 6a performance.

Compatibility

These Cat6a U/FTP patch cords are compatible with all standard networking equipment supporting RJ45 connectors, including 10/100/1000BASE-T and 10GBASE-T Ethernet standards. They are suitable for connecting devices within a network infrastructure that requires bandwidth up to 10 Gbps and frequencies up to 500 MHz. This includes compatibility with most enterprise-grade network switches, routers, servers, patch panels, and IP cameras from vendors such as Cisco, Juniper, HPE, Dell, Ubiquiti, and Axis Communications, provided the equipment supports Cat6a cabling standards.

Installation Notes

Each cable is 3 feet in length, suitable for short-run connections within racks or between adjacent devices. The snag-free strain relief boot protects the RJ45 connector's clip from damage during insertion and removal, ensuring a secure connection and simplifying troubleshooting. The U/FTP construction means each pair is individually shielded, requiring careful routing to avoid kinking and maintain performance. Ensure the environment does not exceed standard operating temperatures for network cables to prevent degradation.
