International Connectors and Cable ICPCSX07OR CAT6A U/FTP Patch Cord (10-Pack)

Overview

The International Connectors and Cable ICPCSX07OR is a 10-pack of 7-foot, Category 6A (CAT6A) Unshielded Twisted Pair (U/FTP) patch cables. These cables feature individual pair shielding and low-profile, snag-free strain relief connectors, designed to meet the demands of high-density data center environments and enterprise networks where reliable, high-speed data transmission is critical. The orange color coding aids in network cable management and identification.

Compatibility

This CAT6A U/FTP patch cable is designed for use in standard Ethernet networks, supporting 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) speeds up to 100 meters. It is compatible with all standard RJ45 network interfaces found on network switches, routers, servers, patch panels, and network interface cards (NICs) from various manufacturers, including Cisco, Juniper, Dell, HP, and Intel. The U/FTP construction is particularly beneficial in environments with high EMI/RFI, ensuring signal integrity.

Installation Notes

The low-profile, snag-free connector design simplifies installation in crowded racks and patch panels, preventing accidental disconnections and cable damage. Ensure the cable is not bent beyond its minimum bend radius (typically 4 times the cable diameter) to maintain performance. The individual pair shielding (U/FTP) requires proper grounding through connected equipment to be most effective against interference.
