A fully shielded CAT6A SFTP patch cord built for true 10Gbps performance and 500MHz bandwidth — factory-terminated with gold-plated, shielded RJ45 connectors, so it's plug-and-play the moment it arrives.
Built with solid 23AWG full bare copper conductors (not CCA — no aluminium, no compromise) wrapped in SFTP shielding and finished with a flexible blue PVC jacket, this cable is engineered to keep interference out in racks, server rooms, and any environment where signal integrity matters most.

Why SFTP shielding matters
Standard UTP patch cords leave your connection exposed to EMI/RFI interference from power lines, fluorescent lighting, and nearby cable runs. In racks, server rooms, and industrial spaces, that interference can show up as dropped packets and inconsistent speeds.
This patch cord uses SFTP construction — individually foil-wrapped pairs plus an outer braided shield — paired with shielded RJ45 connectors, so the shielding stays continuous from plug to plug. That keeps your connection clean even in electrically noisy environments.
Why 23AWG full bare copper matters
Most budget patch cords use CCA (Copper-Clad Aluminium) conductors or thinner 26–28AWG wire. These cut costs but come at a price — higher resistance, weaker signal stability, and reduced reliability in long-term installs.
| Cable Type | Performance |
|---|---|
| 26AWG / 28AWG | ❌ Higher loss, unstable |
| CCA Cable | ❌ Weak conductivity |
| 23AWG Full Copper (this cable) | ✅ Maximum performance |

Frequently asked questions
Is this cable really bare copper and not CCA?
Yes. This patch cord uses solid 23AWG full bare copper conductors throughout — not Copper-Clad Aluminium (CCA), which is common in cheaper cables but performs worse for conductivity and long-term reliability.
Is this cable shielded?
Yes. This is an SFTP (foil + braid) shielded cable, paired with shielded RJ45 connectors, giving continuous shielding from plug to plug — ideal for racks and environments with EMI/RFI interference.
Which length should I choose?
Shorter lengths suit rack and patch panel connections, mid lengths work well for desk-to-wall-port runs, and longer lengths are built for full-room wiring or reaching further devices.
Does this support PoE (Power over Ethernet)?
Yes. The 23AWG bare copper conductors support PoE and PoE+ for cameras, access points, and VoIP phones.
Does it come with connectors already attached?
Yes. Every cord ships factory-terminated with gold-plated, shielded RJ45 8P8C connectors on both ends — no crimping or tools needed, just plug it in.
