Ethernet Cable ProXtend CAT6A RJ-45 U/UTP 15m Red

The ProXtend CAT6A U/UTP CU Ethernet Cable (15 m, red) is a 10GBase-T rated network cable with RJ-45 connectors designed for high-speed wired connections. Constructed from 99.9% pure copper strands with 24 AWG conductors and an LSZH outer jacket, the cable supports data rates up to 10000 Mbit/s and Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+), while offering flame‑safe low smoke and zero halogen properties.

Advantages

The cable uses 99.9% pure copper conductors and 24 AWG sizing to maintain signal integrity at 10G speeds. Its LSZH jacket reduces smoke and toxic gas emission in case of fire. Connectors feature 50µ gold plating for improved corrosion resistance and more consistent transmission compared with standard metal contacts. The assembly includes strain relief and a snagless latch protector for more durable, reliable connections during installation and use.

Suitable for

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet networks (10GBase-T)
• PoE+ powered devices such as access points, IP cameras, and VoIP phones
• Data center patching and server-to-switch uplinks
• Office and home structured cabling where LSZH is required

How to use

Connect one RJ-45 end to your network device (switch, router, patch panel) and the other end to the target device (server, PC, access point). Ensure connectors are fully inserted until the latch clicks and avoid sharp bends or prolonged compression of the cable to maintain performance. Route the cable according to site cabling standards and secure it using appropriate cable management accessories.

Recommendations

For optimal 10G performance, keep cable runs within recommended CAT6A distances (up to 100 m for permanent link) and avoid running parallel to high-voltage power lines. Use proper patch panels and quality switches to preserve transmission integrity; replace the cable if physical damage to the jacket or connectors is visible.
