Eaton Tripp Lite Series N262-S05-BK 5ft Cat6a STP Patch Network Cable with Snagless RJ45 Connectors and PoE Support

Eaton Tripp Lite Series Cat6a 10G Snagless Shielded Slim STP Ethernet Cable (RJ45 M/M), PoE, Black, 5 ft. (1.5 m)

The Eaton Tripp Lite Series N262-S05-BK 5-foot Cat6a shielded twisted pair (STP) Ethernet cable is engineered for high-performance networking applications requiring fast data transfer rates up to 10 Gbps. Its compact, over 38% slimmer design enhances airflow within crowded racks and network closets, reducing heat buildup and improving overall system reliability. The durable black PVC jacket allows quick identification among numerous cables, minimizing installation errors and downtime. Crafted from high-quality copper conductors with integral strain relief, this cable provides superior flexibility and durability, ensuring long-term performance even in demanding environments.

Supporting Power over Ethernet (PoE), the N262-S05-BK enables the seamless deployment of PoE-compatible devices such as security cameras, VoIP phones, and access control systems, especially in hard-to-reach locations far from traditional power sources. The shielded design effectively reduces electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI), which can otherwise compromise signal integrity and hardware performance. Snagless RJ45 connectors protect the locking tabs during installation, preventing damage and ensuring reliable connections. Additionally, the shielded connectors help minimize near-end crosstalk (NEXT), further enhancing data integrity.

Manufactured with environmentally conscious materials and compliant with REACH standards, this cable is suitable for professional data centers, network closets, and high-density installations. Its 28 AWG copper conductors and robust construction make it capable of supporting demanding network speeds and PoE power delivery, simplifying installations and reducing the need for additional power supplies. Backed by a lifetime limited warranty, the Eaton Tripp Lite N262-S05-BK cable offers a reliable, high-quality solution for modern high-speed networking needs, combining performance, durability, and ease of use in a compact form factor.
