Tripp Lite Cat6a 10G Snagless Shielded STP Ethernet Cable (RJ45 M/M), PoE, Black, 7 ft. (2.13 m)

Overview

The Tripp Lite N262-007-BK is a Cat6a Ethernet cable designed to deliver fast and reliable 10G data transmission for demanding network setups. Measuring 7 feet in length, this black cable features shielded twisted pair (STP) construction to minimize interference and maintain signal integrity. It supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) following the IEEE 802.3at standard, making it suitable for powering devices like VoIP phones and security cameras through the network connection.

Built with 26 AWG stranded copper wire, the cable reduces crosstalk and impedance, ensuring stable network performance. Its snagless RJ45 connectors include strain relief to protect locking tabs during installation, while the durable PVC jacket and shielding guard against electromagnetic and radio frequency interference. This cable is a dependable choice for busy offices, data centers, and any environment requiring high-speed 10GBase-T connections.
