This 14-foot Cat6a cable meets or exceeds all Category 6a cable specifications to ensure reliable 10Gb network connections. The cable is shielded to protect your network against electromagnetic interference (EMI/RFI) and system noise, providing the perfect solution for fast and safe network connections. Reliable Cat6a 10 Gigabit connections Each cable is tested for up to 500 MHz frequency and is more than suitable for 10GBase-T Ethernet networks. Constructed with 100% copper and foil-shielded, twisted-pair wiring, this cable was built for quality performance. The cable is designed to keep the data signals traveling through your network free from interference and is perfect in environments that are prone to large amount of EMI. The 50-micron gold connectors deliver optimum conductivity and eliminate signal loss due to oxidation or corrosion. Secured network connections For easier cable runs, the snagless connectors protect the RJ45 clips during installation, making them less likely to snag or break. This ensures a sturdy connection by preventing the cable from becoming loose from the port. Plus, the molded boots offer strain relief that stops the RJ45 connector termination points from bending at sharp angles, which reduces the risk of damage to the cable that could decrease network performance. The C6ASPAT14BK is backed by StarTech ’s lifetime for reliability.
