1 m CAT6a Patch Cable | Shielded (STP) | Snagless | 1% Copper Wire | Grey This CAT6a Ethernet cable meets all Category 6a cable specifications. It ensures reliable 1Gb connections between your network devices. Shield Your Network Tested for up to 5MHz frequency, each CAT6a cable is more than suitable for 1GBase-T Ethernet networks. Built for quality performance, the cable features 1% copper and foil-shielded, twisted-pair wiring. The cable is designed to keep the data signals traveling through your network free from noise and interference. It's perfect in environments that are prone to large amounts of electromagnetic interference (EMI/RFI). Protect Your Equipment This CAT6a patch cable is built using 1% copper wire and is tested to comply with ANSI/TIA 568 C.2 Category 6a requirements. We don’t use copper-clad aluminum (CCA) wire which is subject to problems like weak power delivery, heat buildup, equipment damage and possibly fire. The 5-micron gold connectors deliver optimum conductivity and eliminate signal loss due to oxidation or corrosion. Easily Install Your Network Cables For trouble-free cable runs, this durable cable features snagless connectors that protect the RJ45 clips during installation, making them less likely to snag or break. The CAT6a Ethernet cable also features moulded boots which offer strain relief by stopping the RJ45 connectors from bending at sharp angles. This reduces the risk of cable damage, which could decrease network connectivity and performance. ETL Verified Our Cat6a Ethernet Cables are ETL Verified to meet ANSI/TIA-568.2-D standards, ensuring peak performance for high-speed 1G applications. Independent testing confirms compliance with strict insertion loss, return loss, and crosstalk limits, maintaining stable signal transmission over longer runs. The STP shielding is verified for EMI resistance, for guaranteed reliability in demanding environments. 6ASPAT1MGR is backed by StarTech.com’s lifetime warranty for guaranteed reliability. * HIGH PERFORMANCE CAT6A ETHERNET CABLE: 1% copper for consistent & error-free 1 gigabit connection.
