Tripp Lite Cat6a 10G Snagless Molded UTP Ethernet Cable (RJ45 M/M), PoE, Black, 100 ft. (30.5 m)

The Tripp Lite N261-100-BK is a Cat6a Ethernet cable that uses unshielded twisted pair wiring to deliver stable 10 gigabit performance over a full 100 foot run. Because the cable supports Power over Ethernet, one line can carry both data and power to devices such as IP cameras, wireless access points, and VoIP phones, which removes the need for nearby electrical outlets.

Each end features an RJ45 plug surrounded by a molded snagless boot. The boot shields the latch so you can thread the cable through congested patch panels or cable trays without snapping the clip. Inside the jacket, 24 AWG stranded copper conductors provide the flexibility needed for tight bends behind desks or rack doors while still meeting Cat6a 500 MHz bandwidth requirements.

The jacket is made of black PVC, a choice that helps you pick out this PoE capable link in racks filled with multiple colors and also guards the conductors against abrasion. Whether you are extending a backbone between switches, adding high resolution cameras to a parking lot, or simply future proofing an office network, this cable offers the reach, speed, and reliability demanded by modern infrastructure.

Highlights:

• Cat6a cable that handles 10 Gbps data transfer up to 100 ft
• Supports PoE under 802.3af and 802.3at standards for combined power and data
• RJ45 plugs with molded snagless boots protect latch tabs during installation
• Jacket made from black PVC for quick identification and everyday wear resistance
• 24 AWG stranded copper conductors add flexibility without sacrificing signal integrity
• 100 ft length is practical for data centers, offices, classrooms, and home labs
