Overview The Black Box C6ABC50S-STR-WH-1000 is a premium CAT6A shielded Ethernet cable designed to deliver consistent 10 gigabit Ethernet performance over a 1000-foot spool. It is engineered to minimize electromagnetic and radio-frequency interference, making it ideal for environments with high electrical noise. This cable supports bandwidths up to 650 MHz and meets stringent ANSI/TIA-568.2-D and ISO/IEC 11801 Class EA standards, ensuring reliable data transmission for demanding network applications. Key features Double shielding reduces interference, maintaining stable data, voice, and Power over Ethernet (PoE) connections. Stranded copper conductors provide flexibility, making it easier to route through tight spaces and create patch cords. CM-rated PVC jacket allows safe use for general-purpose in-wall installations. Sequential length markings on the jacket enable quick and accurate cable pulls, reducing waste and installation time. Designed to support 10 gigabit Ethernet throughput consistently across the entire 1000-foot length. Compliance with industry standards guarantees performance and compatibility with enterprise-grade networking equipment. Key specs Cable type: CAT6A shielded Ethernet cable Length: 1000 feet Bandwidth: up to 650 MHz Data rate: 10 gigabit Ethernet Shielding: double shielded to reduce EMI and RFI Conductor: stranded copper for flexibility Jacket rating: CM-rated PVC for in-wall use Standards compliance: ANSI/TIA-568.2-D and ISO/IEC 11801 Class EA Connectivity and compatibility This cable is well suited for connecting switches, servers, VoIP phones, wireless access points, cameras, and other PoE devices. Its shielding and performance standards make it a strong choice for enterprise wiring closets, education labs, healthcare imaging suites, and any environment where clean power and data transmission are critical. Installation and setup The stranded copper conductors offer the flexibility needed for routing through racks and tight bends, while the CM-rated jacket ensures safe in-wall installation. Length markings on the cable jacket simplify measuring and cutting, helping installers complete jobs efficiently with minimal waste. Ideal uses and environments This cable fits well in high-performance network backbones and horizontal runs where 10 gigabit Ethernet is required. It is particularly useful in settings with significant electrical noise, such as industrial or medical environments, where interference could otherwise degrade network reliability. Network teams upgrading copper infrastructure or deploying new PoE devices will find this cable meets their needs for speed, durability, and interference resistance.
